I find going outside to be really helpful. Even if it is just to look at my phone.

Dear HelloJenny,

Wow, what a wonderful blessing to have extra time. For me first of all I like to do things for other people. This can also include random acts of kindness. Volunteer work is so satisfying and is a great way to spend your time. There are so many opportunities and so many needs. What is your passion or interest? Some of these can even be done online. So, maybe do an Internet search? Just a thought!
