  • reflect on small, but beautiful moments that happened over a 24 hour span
  • pluck your eyebrows
  • read excerpts from Jane Austen, Dostoyevsky, or Nabokov
  • write poems for flowers, trees, lakes, rivers, streams,
  • listen to classical music, (Liszt, Chopin, Tchaikofsky, Mozart), imagine that you were a muse for one of these composers,
  • lay in bed, focus on the ceiling, smile to yourself,
  • lucid dream
  • write in a journal, write about things that make you smile earnestly,
  • write a lover letter, a sonnet, an elopement proposal to someone real or fictional, dead or alive,
  • compose a song about the season
  • browse through your favourite online stores, imagine that you are married to a rich aristocrat, better yet, imagine that you are one
  • open your window, turn out all the lights, gaze out into the open abyss,
  • set goals for yourself, small ones at first, then let them grow, conquer all of Narnia,
  • strum soft chords on a guitar
