I like going for walks as often as I can. Listening to and playing music brings me excitement occasionally. Hmmmm, can't really think of much else. A lot of the time I've felt joy in the past, I wasn't really doing anything, just sitting perhaps. Thank you to everyone for the responses. Love and light to you all.
The best time to get to the heart of this challenge you are experiencing right now is when you feel the most happy, excited, joyful, etc.,. So for example, going out on that walk and listening to your favorite music, and figure things out then. Trying to understand yourself or your challenges when you feel like s*** just magnifies the negativity bc when you feel sad, your mind and your brain is limited in its problem-solving abilities.
In such positive states, you may be able to get more growth-promoting insights about yourself and the challenges you are experiencing right now. It's only in this frame of mind where creative problem-solving can occur bc your mind and your brain are both 'opened up'. More open, more creative problem-solving, more possibilities pop up in your mind, etc.,.
