How To Be Happy Alone
Learning how to entertain yourself while you are alone and not feel ‘bored’ is one of the most important life skills every person needs to have. Taking some ‘me’ time to explore what you enjoy doing on your own can be a great way to learn more about yourself. Going for a walk, listening to music, painting, or reading are great activities that allow you to simply be at peace with yourself. It can be hard at first but there will be times in every person’s life where they will simply need to be on their own and learning what makes you happy during these times will help you to feel content.

Personal Exploration
During this time you should consider taking a trip by yourself. Traveling solo is incredibly liberating. You will be able to go and do whatever you want without having to ask your traveling partner what they want to do. This is your time to go to a place you have always wanted, try an activity out of your comfort zone and meet new people as you go. You may just enjoy traveling solo so much that you take a yearly trip by yourself.

Date Yourself
Just as you would ask someone you are on a date with about themselves ask yourself some similar questions internally. Go to a cafe, order a cappuccino and a piece of cake and put your phone or laptop away. Simply gaze out the window and people watch or read a book if you really feel like you can’t be idle. This time is for you to simply find peace within yourself because ultimately the person who will always be there for you is YOU.
Love yourself for who you are and enjoy spending time alone. Life has a way of keeping us all busy and this time apart from everyone can be just what the doctor ordered when it comes to destressing.
