What are your mindapples??
 
Sorry, I appear to be on a thread-making spree!

Some people from Time To Change accosted me on campus for world mental day to try to force feed me brownies and get me to fill in a sheet about mindapples, and now I'm asking you good folk of RYL (about mindapples, I'm afraid I have no brownies to offer!)

Here's what it said on the 'apple' I was given:

What's the 5-a-day for your mind?
We all know how to take care of our bodies, but what about our minds?
A mindapple is anything we do that's good for our minds, from going dancing to having a nice cup of tea. We want to know what works for you. What are your five mindapples?
Mine are probably:
1. Cookies!
2. Keeping my mind fit by doing something intellectual
3. Making time for relaxation
4. Getting enough sleep
5. Hugs!

What about you?

Ohh interesting,

I think mine are:
1. Prayer
2. Tea
3. Fellowship/Spending time with friends
4. Time alone for contemplation/reflection.
5. Sleep

Mine would be..

1.Chatting to ALL the people.
2.Sleeping.
3.Planning things.
4.Playing Xbox.
5.Having time to think.

I like this concept:

1) A good long sleep
2) A nice cup of tea
3) A nice meal out with good wine ;-p
4) Certain films e.g most Disney, Stepmom, Love Actually etc.
5) Comedy e.g House, Big Bang Theory, Friends and so on.

I really like this post. Thanks Jenna.

Mine are (Sorry I had to do 6, couldn't cope with just 5):

1. My sister visiting and staying over at mine.
2. Getting the sketchbooks out and scribbling out ideas.
3. Finishing a piece of art work.
4. Seeing my friend.
5. Curling up in front of the TV with a cup of tea (or cold beer or glass of wine:-p).
6. Having finished tidying my flat. The process can be a struggle, but I do feel better afterwards because I'm that cool.

1. A cuddle, preferably a long one with the lady.
2. Time with my guinea pigs.
3. Creativity; drawing, Mehndi, Mehndi designs, tattooing.
4. Rest time with an interesting or funny thing to watch.
