EARNEST ALERT: Things to do to make you feel better that kinda annoyingly... just work—
- Take breaks from work with tiny, screen-free chores like unloading the dishwasher, brushing out pets, watering plants
- Get out of bed as soon as your 1st alarm goes off
- So! Much! Water!

- Grow something (one low-maintenance/high-reward option I love is mint)
- Send a postcard to a friend without warning
- Spend $5 at the grocer on fresh flowers (or pick some from your yard. Pretty weeds count)

- I resent this one a lot, but: take a shower. Consider adding a grossly-named ~shower steamer~ (I like these https://www.justheavenly.org/shower-steamers/breathe-easy-shower-steamer-3-pack)
- Audrey reminded me of another good one: set up your coffee pot to auto-brew the night before (assuming you're my-level of addicted. If you're not and enjoy the ritual of pour over or French press, stick with that! And know I'm jealous of you)
