Replenishing or "feeding" your soul when you need it most will make you feel happier, calmer, and help you to connect with yourself. It promotes those "I'm here now and everything will be O.K." thoughts. It's refreshing for the mind, the body, and the connections between the two. Brains get cluttered with information, stressors, challenges, and experiences, causing us to get lost in our own heads and dissociate from ourselves. Doing simple things that are good for the soul promotes some feel-good personal growth.

writing a list
A to-do list, bucket list, grocery list, list of fears, goals, any kind of list. It's a way to organize some random messy thoughts.
4. Clean up your room or workspace

Nature is proven to be a more relaxing environment and takes away the stress of everyday life.
8. Meditate or pray
Meditating is calming, or you can pray if you are religious. Either way, use the time to connect your mind and spirit.
9. Tell someone you love and appreciate them
