Free low-effort things that immediately make you feel better
​
What are the free, low-effort things that immediately make you feel better? I find that focusing on these rewards help me avoid spending on days when I am worn out and need a little extra comfort/luxury, feel tired of being frugal, craving a little impulse shopping, etc. So much of frugality is managing your mental game and this seems to help me.
Here's my list so far...
Stretching
Walking outside when the weather is nice
A book from the library (or a good poem when time/attention is especially short)
Taking whatever meal you were planning to have and eating it outside
Looking at your husband or child
Taking deep breaths to smell your tea or coffee
Changing into loose, comfortable clothes after coming home
A warm shower or bath
