For some of us, the holiday season can be a hard one. That sucks, so we made something for all of us. It starts today, December 1, and it’s called 31 Days of Self-Care. It’s a list of purposeful, daily activities meant to pick yourself up, calm yourself down, and often a little bit of both. You can participate every day, some days, one day, or even two days. We’ll be posting daily prompts as well as reblogging some of our favorites we find in the #selfcareing tag, so be sure to tag your posts! See the full list of prompts below.
Hey, great job! What makes you nostalgic? Think about it for exactly one minute.
Find the URL of your favourite YouTube video. Construct it out of leaves from your yard and PVA glue!
Look through your tumblr dash. Wow, lots of posts there! Wait for a couple hours, then click refresh. What the- now there are even MORE posts!
Every try guessing the result of a coin toss? Try this: the next time you flip a coin, look at the face-up side BEFORE calling it. You’ll be right every time!

Draw a fun picture about what you think happens after you die! Remember - an afterlife is both unproven and unlikely!
Read the Wikipedia article for “Physics”. Pretty complicated!
Make a list where you rank your top 10 favorite colours. E-mail it to your favourite Let’s Player. Tag a Tumblr mutual.
Try uploading an image to a website and pointing at it.
Shit, did I mention water? You should probably drink some water. Honestly, you probably should’ve done that before day 10. This one’s on me, sorry.
What’s been your favourite self-care activity from the first 10 days? Why not make a list ranking them in order of preference. and then tie it to a brick and hurl it through the. window of a church
Are you the kindest you’ve ever been? When were you? Months ago? Years ago? Is this a normal part of growing up? Did it have to be this way? Are you a burden? Do they know? Are they lying?
Put a tablespoon of salt in a bowlful of warm water. Voila: home made salt water!

Did yow know that on modern Windows operating systems you can click on the bottom right, to the right of the date and time, and it’ll minimise all your windows at once? Pretty cool!
Draw a comic of a child trapping a dog inside a box. In the second panel, the dog gets free of the box, and the child climbs inside the box. In the third panel, the box and the dog are gone, and the child is alone. Try colouring it in with crayons! Tag a tumblr mutual.
Shit. Fuck. OK, drink water again. I’m really fucking this up.

E-mail your closest friend a link to the newgrounds dress-up game you accidentally clicked into in your school’s computer lab. Describe in detail your shock, your fear of being found out, your growing curiosity. Do you remember how it made you feel? The world you felt opening up before you? Why have you never told anyone before? What are you so afraid of?
uh oh, it’s GANGNAM STYLE DAY!! Do the gangnam style dance from the famouse youtube video “gangnam style”.
Put a piece of paper on top of a box of cereal. You’re an artist!
Draw a tree and dream of fruit.
Today is a day off! You don’t have to do any self care today. Don’t make any lists or drink any water for 24 hours. If you tag your tumblr mutuals in anything I will kill you myself.
It’s new year’s eve! Find a single piece of confetti and throw it up into the air. Wait for it to slowly drift down to the ground.
