15 things you can do while you're stuck at home to make this one of the best periods
of your life for your own personal growth. Let's dive straight into them and have some
fun. Number one, meditation. "No, not meditation." I can hear you saying it. I can hear you not
wanting to meditate, but this is one of the best things I have my clients do for their
own mental calmness, clarity, and relaxation. Not only does it make you feel a whole lot
better, but it's going to improve your relationships as well because you're going to relax more.
It's going to allow you to let men lead more. You're going to have a bunch more fun. You're
going to get to be in your feminine. All good things to come from meditation, and you can
start in as little as three minutes per day. The link to the Headspace app is in the description.
Number two, virtual excursions. Sure, you can go out on excursions from the comfort
of your own home. I put a whole bunch of links in the description that you can follow. You
can go to the San Diego Zoo. You can go to Yellowstone National Park and have a look
around. You can even go on Mars. You can actually go on an excursion on the Mars Rover. I've
added a whole bunch of links in the description for virtual excursions you can do on your
own or even with your kids.
Number three is my personal favorite - audiobooks. It is a golden time to listen to more audiobooks
than you ever have before. Esther Perel, Brene Brown, Mark Manson has just released his new
audiobook. Links to all of these are in the description, links to audible. Get on to audio
books. I don't think there is a better time to dive into some of the best minds of the
world than right now when you're stuck at home.
Number four, help the kids learn. If you've got kids, do you know how many amazing resources
there are online for kids learning? I'll put a whole bunch of them in the description.
Everything from learning to draw, to learning engineering, to scholastic activities. They're
all in the description, and you can also if you don't want to do any of those things.
You can get the kids learning practical skills, right? Teach them to change a tire, teach
them to bake a casserole. Teach him to change the kitty litter or do up a budget. Let's
be real. All of these practical skills are probably more useful than what they'd be learning
at school anyway.
Number five, take a free university course. Did you know I didn't even know this? You
can do free college courses online anytime from some of the best universities across
America and the world, Berkeley, Yale, Columbia, some of the best universities have totally
free courses where you can educate yourself, grow your mind right now. I'll put the links
to all of them in the description.
Number six, online board games. Look, I might be a bit of a board games nerd so I might
be slightly biased on this one, but you can play almost any board game that you usually
play with your friends or family online. In the description, I've put a link to the steam
app where you'll find board games like Catan simple board games like battleship or my personal
favorite,Pandemic for you to play with your friends.
Number seven, you can date. I bet you thought you couldn't date. If there's ever been a
better time to date, than now we're all stuck at home. As I chat about in another video,
guys who are online now can hook up for sex or at least you have a reasonable excuse to
tell them to piss off. Guys who want validation will get bored, so the result is all the guys
who actually want to talk to you, get to know you on the phone, those guys are going to
want to message you online. So have some fun with online dating right now. Even if you
haven't got it working for you before. I'll put some links in the description on how to
do it, how to set up your profile, how to get all that good stuff going. Get the guy
on the phone and have a bunch of fun talking to really great guys.
Number eight is exercise. You've got to stay fit. You've got to stay sane during this period
and there's thousands of workout plans and things you can do online and for you moms
out there. There's even ones you can do with the kids. Yup. I've got a bunch of kid-friendly
workouts that are in the description below to make sure you stay fit and healthy during
this time. I think there's never been a better time to get creative with your exercise and
figure out how you can work out and stay healthy from home.
Number nine is watch documentaries. This has been another personal favorite of mine to
stop thinking about the stupid V I R U S and start paying my attention to things bigger
than myself. My personal favorites are space documentaries, nature documentaries. There's
some amazing documentaries on World War II, which just make me feel ever so lucky to not
be going through any of that.
Whatever it is, whatever you're into. It could be fashion, it could be bugs, it could be
crime, whatever it is. You can find it very easily in this day and age. So watch some
documentaries. Expand your mind. I've put a few of my favorites in the description and
use this time to learn.
Number 10, look, I'm a little biased on this one, but you should binge watch some of my
videos! Alright, get in there and watch some videos. Learn a bunch about dating relationships.
There's never been a better time to catch up on the channel or leave a question for
Q and A in the community. I've even put an application form in the description. You can
fill it out for free, and apply to work with me personally.
Number 11, form empowering new habits. This is a great time to shift your daily schedule
and put in place some habits that are going to help when things go back to normal. One
of my favorites is a Gratitude Journal. If you're not already doing that, and you should,
and I think this crisis has taught me to be grateful more than ever for the amazing things
that are gonna come before, after and even during. In addition to. Another thing that's
helped me a lot is you can start a Wins Journal. This has been very powerful for clients where
every morning they do their gratitude and then every night say when they're brushing
their teeth, they do their wins. You can pick the smallest things each day. "Hey, I went
for a shop. Hey, I did some meditation. Hey, I spoke to my mum." Whatever it is, but you
fill out wins that you've done each day. "I exercised," all these things add up, and each
day you get this momentum, and you see the wins that you're building up each day and
it gives you a huge roll of confidence in yourself.
Number 12, embrace your feminine side, so if you are a, especially if you're a really
hardworking woman and you have to be in your masculine energy all the time, or you're in
a stressed energy, there's never been a better time to sit back, relax and connect to your
feminine side. I did an amazing video with Anya Grace. I'll put the link to that in the
description. I also wrote an entirely free book with Helena Hart, who helps you connect
to the five aspects of your feminine energy. It's called Seven Secrets To Being A Woman
He Can't Resist. The link to that absolutely free is also in the description, and there's
all sorts of other ways getting into more creative pursuits, all kinds of things you
can do to connect to your feminine side during this time. Not only is reconnecting to your
feminine energy going to make you feel great, it's going to allow you to relax more, enjoy
polarizing men in your personal and intimate relationships.
Number 13, reset your social following. This has been a wonderful time for me to check
what am I listening to online, and when I'm spending that time scrolling, is it pages
that I really want to be following? I've decided to unfollow all the rubbish and follow pages
that show me good news, follow pages that show me nature, follow pages that show me
stories of empowering people and posts, things that pick me up every day are the things that
I want to be seeing in my feed. I've added three of my favorite pages to follow on Instagram
down in the description below. Check over yours. Who are you following and who do you
need to cut out to move forward to be the best possible you?
Number 14, log off the news. I think one of the best lessons of this V I R U S has been,
it's taught me how toxic the news can be. Look, it's important to stay up to date, and
I've got a great website with some facts in the description below, but spending too much
time on the news and watching their rubbish that they put on there, which remember, they
are setting out to get eyeballs, right? The only price that's increased in this whole
saga is advertising space during the news. They are out there to get eyeballs, and you
only want to listen to enough that you are informed and you know what's going on. Any
more than that, you're going to get barraged by negative because they know that works,
and it's going to make you feel negative. One of the best things I ever did was give
up the news, and I've tried to maintain that as much as possible during this time as well.
I can honestly recommend that if you want to feel great moving forward into the future,
have a go at doing the same,
and number 15, call your friends and family, right? There's never been a better time to
call your mom. Call your dad, your sister's daughters, brother. Call all these people,
connect with them, spend longer than you usually would. Hang out with your pet as well while
you're at it. These are times more than anything that we can connect to those around us and
those we truly value, and I genuinely think it's going to be a time that we look back
on and think, "wow, I really stopped there. I stopped and I listened to people and everything
just calm down." I think this V I R U S is going to be a beautiful thing for the world.
We're already seeing nature waking up from it during the lack of pollution and the other
good things that are happening. So I think it's going to be a really beautiful time for
the world. So make sure it is a beautiful time in your life. Don't forget, you can grab
