If you live near the ocean, go to the beach and build a sand
castle or wiggle your toes in the wet sand. If you live inland,
go to a natural place like a park and find some unusual
wildflowers. You could also watch birds and other animals or try
doing something really unusual and watch ants and bees.

Go outside and pick a flower or some leaves and put them in a
vase.

Take a short walk outside. Focus your attention on something you
like looking at as you walk. Be sure to look for natural beauty,
architecture or interesting people. During this walk, make a
point of noticing the positive qualities in everything you see.

If you live in an area that’s green in spring, go out and enjoy
the green grass. If you live in an area that’s green in summer,
then you can go out and enjoy the beauty of green grass all
summer long. If you live in the desert, go to a golf course or
park and enjoy the beautifully manicured green grass.
71.
Get a bird feeder and some wild bird food from the pet store.
Enjoy the incredible display you will get when your local birds
discover it. You can even put a feeder up if you live in an
apartment. If you live in an area where there are hummingbirds,
put up a feeder for them.

Pack up some sandwiches and other finger food and go out for a
picnic...you can do this at work or at home, alone or with
others. Find a nice park or someplace with trees or a lawn and
enjoy eating outdoors.

If you have a dog or cat, pet them and give them extra attention
or buy them a special treat at the pet store. If not, visit the
Humane Society and pet a cat or walk a dog. You could also
offer to walk a friend or neighbor’s dog.
74.
Visit a local public garden or arboretum in the spring or early
summer. If you’ve never noticed flowers much, notice how pretty
they are. Sometimes college campuses have special landscaping
that is very nice. Explore something new and enjoy!
75.
When you’re lucky enough to have a really clear evening, look at
the stars and see if you can identify any constellations. You
could look at a star map while you’re doing this to see which
stars are visible in your area. If you have an opportunity while
on vacation away from the city, notice how many more stars you
can see.
76.
Go outside early in the morning before sunrise and watch the sky
change color as the sun comes up. You could also make a point of
watching the sunset, especially when there are clouds in the
sky.
