Make memories that will last a lifetime this summer! We have a checklist to mark off the adventures that are making Summer ’22 your best yet.
- Find a waterfall. There’s gotta be one near you. Stand under it.
- Indulge in a forest bath, or shinrin-yoku, the Japanese tradition of mindfully taking in nature through all the senses.
- Road triiiiiiip. Doesn’t matter where, does matter what you listen to, and who you’re with. Choose wisely.
- Have a picnic! Eating outside is romantic, don’t let anyone tell you different.
- Make a hand-drawn treasure hunt for your kids or loved ones, even if it just leads to a cookie. Find the fun in the unexpected.
- Play Book Roulette. Head to the Fiction section of your favorite local bookshop, close your eyes, spin around, and grab the first book you see.
- Watch that movie your dad has asked you about for the last decade. Call him and talk to him about it, because it was actually pretty good!
- Head to your local art supply store and spend the day painting outside. It’s more relaxing than you’d assume!
- Find a body of water and just stare at it for a long time in silence. Know peace!
- Pick flowers and give them to a loved one.
- Call your mom.
- Try to skip rocks.
- Check out a new podcast.
- Check out your nearest botanical garden. Remember that thing about plants triggering serotonin release? Imagine how good you’ll feel around thousands of plants.
- Cool off at your local pool, lake, or ocean!
- Take up a new hobby.
- Let your tastebuds explore and find a new restaurant!
- Go see live music!
- Volunteer at a local animal shelter.
