Sometimes I get into a rut and forget about the world as a global resource of learning and fun. Part of nourishing ourselves is to keep learning and there is no better way than to try something new. I like to take just one day a month and do it different. It helps to get into beginner’s mind once in a while. I’m a total novice when it comes to paddle boarding. My legs were shaky and the whole time I imagined falling off the board but man was it fun.
Reward your soul by trying something new:
- Try a new sport (check)
- Read a biography
- Watch a foreign film/documentary
- Listen to classical music for one day
- Learn to say a few phrases in a new language
- Try food from a different culture (lunch in Chinatown, Little Italy or try Ethiopian)
- Cook an ethnic meal
- Catch an improv or comedy show
- Go to a planetarium
- Visit an art museum
- Visit a museum of science

- Take a music class
- Visit a travel/transportation museum
- Take a cooking or baking class
- Take a drawing/painting class
- See a concert
- Attend a gallery or art show opening
- Visit a craft fair
- Take an online writing class
