RACHAEL KABLE
About this episode

Hello and welcome to episode 160 of The Mindful Kind podcast!

In this episode, you'll discover how to create a list of things to do for fun and why it can be a really important and powerful method of bringing more joy into your life. 

I've also shared my favourite things to do for fun, including:

  • Watering my indoor plants
  • Curling up on the couch with the dogs and a good book
  • Doing yin yoga
  • Watching funny shows like Lano and Woodley
  • Spending time in nature

Here are 3 reasons why it's important to create a list of things to do for fun:

  • You can identify what ISN'T on your list and cut down on that activity
  • It helps you make fun a priority
  • Writing fun activities down increases the chance you'll actually do them!

Come over to my Instagram @rachaelkable to show me your own fun lists!

Thank you for listening and I hope you have a wonderful week, Mindful Kind.
