What's your guilty pleasure?

After a hard day of work, when you need to relax, is there something you particularly like to do? I'll go first. My days as a CEO are typically filled with a lot of small task β€” emails, meetings... As a tech person, I miss having my mind focused on a single, intellectually challenging task. That's why I like to relax by doing a pencil and paper puzzle away from my computer. Sudoku variant, crossword, anything. As long as I can chew on a pencil as I do it. 😊 What about you?

I watch a good movie or series every weekend to unwind. If my list ran out, I rewatch Disney movies 😁 On some occassions, I visit cafes / shops I have never been to so I can try new drinks or pastries 😍

@gladys_atienza Disney FTW!!! We need a Β« makers who love Disney Β» community. ;)

To relax I like playing video games, it disconnects me from the daily hustle!
Philippe Beaudoin
@joanduarte Ah! I was writing about my love for cozy games recently. They play a meditative role in my life.

I cook something delicious and eat it all by myself. Like a li'l dinner date with myself.

@rach_ana Oh! I love cooking and try to do longer prep meals at least 4 days of the week!

I do aerobic exercise for an hour every day

@rebeccatany wow! Good for you! I do gym twice a week, wish I was motivated enough to do it more.
Philippe Beaudoin
@rebeccatany I am! I’m just recognizing that it’s something that comes easily and naturally to others but is more of an uphill battle for me.

my guilty pleasure is more off-work. Desserts I'd say, cheese cakes are my fav. Considering my gym routines, cakes are indeed guilty pleasure

Mine is definitely reading! I'll use Kindle or paper books, just make sure that I don't get interrupted by all kinds of notifications!

@sofiali i loooove having a good book in progress. I read mostly fiction. My problem is when the book is Β« not so good Β». I dive or it away but I don’t have a big urge to continue it. :/

@indu_thangamuthu I’m from Quebec, during the season we have these absolutely delicious tiny native blueberries. I hope you can try them some day, they are out-of-this-world amazing.

After a really busy day and heavy gym session, I love to watch something like The Kardashians, Emily in Paris, or something similar where I don't really have to pay attention/think anymore
Philippe Beaudoin
@jason_andries1 turning your brain off is such a sweet feeling, heh? I like it too! :)

I eat food... not sure if this is the best habit but I need to satisfy my stomach to fully charge my body and my brain.

Well, I have learned to adapt to growing technology. As a working partner at home, I need to balance my work life and my personal life. So for me, listening to fantasy music helps to relax and do what I'm supposed to do.
