Everyone gets bored sometimes and that is perfectly normal. Whether you are bored alone or with friends, it is boring not to have anything to do.
That’s why we’ve made this list of 8 things to do when you’re bored!
Once you get some time left over, it’s delicious in the beginning. You can relax and watch TV series or movies, or you can lie straight on the couch and not do any worldly things.
8 things to do when you are bored:
1. Listen to Audiobook 📚
Listening to an audiobook when you are bored is ingenious.
Audiobook is also completely free since both Storytel and Fabel offer free trial periods of 14 and 30 days.
You can lie down and relax to a good book – or listen while doing other things like cleaning, exercising, or other things you can read about on this list.
2. Take a walk 🏃♂️
Going for a walk is good for you – not only physically, but also for the mood!
Whether you want to get in a slightly better mood or get new inspiration and energy, going for a walk is perfect to do when you get bored.
It’s good to get away from the screen and get your body moving a bit, whether you are alone or with friends.
Get out and walk – either in the neighborhood or in the woods and fields 🙂
3. Take a small workout 🏋️♀️
Push-ups, sit-ups, sprints and lifting weights are all things you can do at home!
It’s good for you and you’ll get more energy and inspiration to do something fun afterwards.
4. Bake something good 🥯
Baking is fun and the result is good!
Freshly baked buns, bread or cake are always good! Just making waffles is a fun activity to do if you get bored.
5. Make a work of art 👩🎨
How about painting a work of art you can hang on the wall?
Look in stalls and cupboards if you have old paint with color standing and play with your creativity.
Get a proper canvas, or use paper or cardboard you have lying around instead.
It is fine to use wall paint or furniture paint, but it should preferably be water-thinned acrylic paint so that it does not smell so much.
6. Go to the cinema
Who doesn’t like going to the movies?
There is little that beats watching a good movie in a proper cinema hall, preferably with popcorn and something good to drink.
Going to the cinema is perhaps most natural to do with friends, but there are also many who like to go to the cinema alone.
7. Learn Yoga 🧘♀️
Some deep breathing and other Yoga exercises are a great way to avoid getting bored.
Find a mat or something else you can do exercises on and learn the techniques you need to succeed on Youtube.
8. Plant plants 🌱
Plants create life in the room and different plants have different personalities and varying needs.
Take a trip to the nearest garden center and find some beautiful plants you can take care of!
