One of my favorite exercises of all time I call "bucket of words." I am 100% positive there are other iterations of it with better names, but here's how you do it:
Write a character taking an action.
Add 1 object description
Add 1 setting description
Add internal feeling (does not need to be related to action)
Add physical manifestation of feeling (ie sweating, shaking, smiling, etc)
Add setting atmosphere (this MUST be impacted by internal feeling so if your character is scared, atmosphere must be threatening vibes)
Add internal monologue, at least one sentence
Add 1 setting or object description (your choice)
Complete with sentence fragment, ideally either the completion of initial action or a repetition of action sentence.
((Important to note that these do not need to all be separate sentences))
