6 activities for Autumn you can do from Home (instead of Netflix)

We know: Autumn is calling for binge-watching Gilmore Girls or Gossip Girls. But if you want to take a break from your comforting series or movies, we got you. If you are looking for other activities than that, you are right here. Here are our Top 6 activities for Autumn.

Journaling

For anyone who is overthinking their whole existence, journaling can be a good relief. Journaling allows us to declutter and reflect on our thoughts. By writing things down, we can observe our thought process and recognise the irrationality in it- at least sometimes.

Prayer and Meditation

The power of prayer and meditation is truly underestimated. Many studies prove the positive effect on our well-being. Prayer doesn't have to belong to a specific religion. It's universal and can be done by anyone. Praying or meditating regularly teaches us patience, calmness and gratitude.

Learning a new language

Every culture has its beauties. And one of these beauties is languages. Speaking languages helps us to learn more about other countries, people and cultures. It helps us overcome perceived otherness and brings us closer to people who seem different from us. By learning a new language, you benefit from: cultural sensitivity, openness and a better memory.

Decor

The colour, lighting or position of your furniture can make a big difference to the overall aesthetics of your home and can have a lasting effect on your well-being. Autumn is the perfect time to prepare your home for the long and cold season. Even seemingly small actions like changing the colour of your duvet covers or using different lighting can have a big impact. If you don't know where to start, Pinterest is the perfect place to look at how you can fully realise the potential of your home.

Reading Non- fictional Books or Novels

Unlike Netflix, reading is a more active form of entertainment. Your brain is more active, processes information and is busy visualising what you read. In the long run, you benefit from a better vocabulary and learn to express yourself in a targeted and concise way.

Listening to podcasts

Podcasts are perfect for passive consumption. You can listen to them while doing the household chores or anything else while beeing informed or entertained at the same time.
