Dancing is a great way to exercise, relieve stress, and have fun! It’s easy for anyone to dance to music. You can even break out your favorite moves with your kids.
One of the best ways to make yourself happy is to listen to music. Choose the one you like and put it on, then close your eyes and let the (song) take control for a while. Dance around like you used to when you were younger and see that genuine happiness coming back into your life.

This can help you in a lot of ways and one of them is that your loneliness will disappear faster than staying in one place in the house.
The second is that you will feel lively and that is the beauty and purpose of having fun.
4. Write in your journal about your day and what you felt
Today I woke up, got dressed in my jammies, and looked out my window. It was raining heavily and no matter how small my home is, I still felt lonely, I started moving around the house and at the end of it, I saw myself in the kitchen how I got there, I just can’t explain, but then I decided to make myself breakfast but appetite was very far from me at that stage I didn’t have a choice than to put the breakfast down and then off to my bed again.
A few minutes later I felt like speaking with someone so I went through my contact list called one of my friends but in the end, I still didn’t feel comfortable because I couldn’t tell what I was feeling. So I told my jotter from my bedside and decided to write my schedule for the day down.
when I started, I ended up seeing myself opening up to my jotter. Within two minutes, one page of my jotter was full and then the second page started, I was so relieved.
After writing on my jotter, I discover that I was feeling much better like I just pour my heart into someone. The loneliness I was feeling was gone and the weight was lifted. that was how I knew that in the process of not being able to talk to anyone, that your jotter is your best friend in which you can trust.
Therefore, writing in your journal is one of the best and fastest ways to healing your heart and boredom.
5. Collect Things on the Grandparents’ Farm
Getting busy is one of the best ways that you can help yourself from boredom. You don’t have to overwork yourself, all you have to do is to find things that will boost your spirit at that moment. so go on with what you know that will keep you occupied.

In one way or the other, we have people that we like and look up to as our models, people or someone that motivates us a lot to be better than who we were yesterday and you need to make a list of them.
How can this help you at this time?
When we are bored or feeling down, we are vulnerable and this time is dangerous and also the perfect time to think straight about our lives. Making this list will help you to be doing your research on what is missing in your life and also in what you can do to help you stand up and be like your idol.
7. Watch a movie
There are movies that you can watch when you are bored and there are they once you shouldn’t watch at that particular time so ensure that you understand your emotions at that moment before selecting a movie to watch.
If you are feeling emotionally down, avoid romantic movies at this period, and go for a comedy movie, a movie that will make you laugh and not a movie that will make you be questioning yourself if you are that bad that you are all along again.
8. Read a book
Apart from watching movies and using my journal, one of the things I do a lot is to read a book. I am not a fan of hardcopy books but I am a fan of softcopy books especially stories.
this is one of the methods I use when I feel like being on my own. I enjoy reading romantic stories and with that, I get to attach to light Reader a lot.

Most times playing a video game is just like going to the gym. It keeps you occupied and happy with a new focus. No one plays a video game intending to be defeated but to win, so playing video games keeps your mind occupy and your brain busy that it has given no room for boredom to set in.
