Most of us have hobbies, interests, or self-care strategies that we might classify as a “guilty pleasure,” but here’s the thing: We don’t have to feel guilty for the things we like, that make us happy, or help us get through a hard day. With this in mind here are some suggestions: self-care “guilty pleasures.”
1) Craft paint! I love taking thrifted finds and refinishing them. – @silverlining42
2) Trail mix. – @artemple95
3) Singing and pretending my car is a recording studio. – @daliadoll
4) Modern window shopping, that is scrolling through online shops and adding many, many things that I will probably never buy to my wishlists. It can be houses, cars, clothes ….
– @minniemichelle
5) Sitting on the sand watching the waves come in. Alone. – @atl05ast
6) I love watching children’s cartoons when I feel stressed. – @lauracort
7) Hot cocoa with cinnamon and whipped cream, and a movie marathon.
– @tryingtothrive
8) Ice cream usually helps. – @writer21
9) Monster apocalypse movies/TV. It makes my life feel manageable in comparison. At least I’m not being chased by vampires. – @bethli
10) Binge-watching an entire series while sipping an ice-cold Coke and rubbing my little dog’s belly! – @sashahans
11) Looking online at houses for sale in my neighborhood! – @elie
