What do you find therapeutic?
What are those simple, therapeutic things that bring a sigh of relief and a feeling of gratification & inner peace?
Some of mine: ~ Cleaning the kitchen spotless after a meal (somehow stuff ends up everywhere) ~ Putting something where it belongs ~ Sitting in front of the ocean watching the waves ~ Handwriting ~ Watching old 1940s/50s How To and lifestyle/household clips ~ Crochet Not sure if this thread is already out there or not.

Great topic!
A few of mine: *Running my fingers down my girls gorgeous, long strawberry blonde hair *Staring at the fireplace *Reading *Adult coloring books (I learned a new phrase in one of them, "Twat Waffle") *Rubbing dogs bellies *Observing the Minks and the Blue Heron in the ravine behind the house

Some things I do might not be too ordinary, but I find lots of pleasure in doing them, because there's an heart connection behind most all of them (and, I listed them out of order):
* filing my natural nails and buffing them to a gloss. ** sharpening kitchen knife blades (my dad taught all us kids years ago, but it's a worthwhile skill). *** cooking in the kitchen. **** tangled up with my Sweetheart and listening to his heartbeat and observing his chest rise and fall, as he breathes. ***** bicycle riding (I can hardly wait to be well enough, so I can ride my bicycle again). |

Guess because it's in the blood, many things about Native culture is very very calming to me, but I especially love drumming. Something happens where I go into a trance when I'm listening, feeling the vibes. Definitely therapeutic for the soul.

Bowl of chicken soup with a big huge matzoh ball in the middle. (I like 'em the size of softballs.)

A good workout- helps get the extra energy out of my body and organizes my thoughts at the same time.
Cleaning my house and sometimes that involves purging things that need to be purged. Organizing my house in a new way. Cooking healthy food. Music. Sometimes loud sometimes soft. Different types for different therapy. A long drive with the right music. |

I forgot watching videos of crafters. It's very soothing. Sometimes they have music I don't care for or I don't care for the sound of their voices at that time, so I'll play my music in the background and turn the sound down on YouTube.
I especially like it when they put the video on double/triple/quadruple time and I can watch their masterpieces unfold like a time lapse video. Speaking of which, time lapse videos are really fun to watch. Also, I meant 'blend', not bend re: my warm, soft, fuzzy throws. |
