Listening to music, dancing, reading, weaving hair. etc
The music they say is the food for the soul, I have found it to be very therapeutic, it calms me down when under stress, and it lifts my spirit when I find myself in a toxic environment, it is an enduring tool for me.
Dancing is a way I ease my tension and also expresses my mood.
Reading makes me feel fulfilled
weaving helps me to express how much I appreciate fashion, beauty, elegance, and style
