Perhaps you have time to do something for yourself for the first time in years. Take advantage of your slower-paced existence as you grow older and accomplish things you’ve always wanted to do but haven’t had time for.

Distract yourself by engaging in enjoyable activities such as hobbies, sports, or social interaction with positive people. Try gardening, nature hikes, or spending your afternoons relaxing at the beach. Start learning a new language or enroll in painting courses to rediscover long-forgotten interests and passions.
