Hola everyone,
What normally you do when you have 5 minutes with yourself? no phone, no tv, no work...
I normally enjoy taking 5 minutes. Sometimes I close my eyes and I feel my breath, sometimes I enjoy a cup of tea, another I just observe what I have around me.

Gaze at something or nothing!
Perhaps the most peaceful moments?

Hello LornaC
I see a little plant in your avatar, and one thing I do (whenever I remember() is to check to see if my two little plants need a drink.
& I talk to to them too.
When that's done, I try to remember what else I have forgotten.

Do a few stretches , deep breaths, and a cup of herbal tea with honey.

I have an app on my phone, Garage Band, and I play a little on the piano keyboard. It's glitchy, I can't see and make mistakes when I try to touch specific notes, but I don't care. 'Near Enough is Good Enough' is my policy, and can produce some rather nice results. I would prefer the app to work better thogh, because then using it would not be so frustrating, which is not what I want when I want to use it! I want to relax.
Sometimes, it is very good for that, when it works properly & I feel a nice, ease with what I am playing. (I am not a 'pianist' by any stretch of the imagination.)
My hands just want, itch for piano keys. Or it is just to relieve nervous tension, which I feel in how I get fidgety.

Hola Lorena
Lying down for me! Probably not the best choice, because 5 minutes could turn to 5 hours if I'm not cautious 🙂

Playing with fur-babies is such a good thing to do ... If I could, I would play with your fur-babies, too Grandy. Take another 5 minutes, on my behalf! 😺

Oh,yes, I also meant to say, I like spending 5 minutes playing the litle word games which I have found here on BB. WhenI take any time to play, I feel I am doing something for myself, most especially when I have been being serious in other places.mmMekitty
