Want to practice self care at home? These are 23 of the best at home self care activities that I like to enjoy!
Are you struggling to come up with new, fun things to do at home?
As a homebody, I tend to stay in the house and enjoy my own presence, so I’m practically an expert on at-home self care (if I say so myself). From reading to listening to music and hanging out with my family, I do a lot to take care of myself while I’m at home. (And you can—and should—too!)
If you’re looking for ways to take care of yourself when you’re stuck in the house, you’re in the right place. In this post, you’ll learn all about 23 of the BEST at home self care activities.
This post is all about at home self care activities.
Why should you practice self care at home?
Before we get into it, why is it important to practice self care at home, anyway?
At-home self care is the type of self care that you do, well, at home, and can consist of activities like cooking, cleaning, listening to music, doing laundry, watching TV, and many other things.
I know that some of these activities simply sound like chores, and while some of these technically are, you can also look at them as self care activities.
Why?
Because you have to look at self care as something bigger than simply taking a warm bath and catching up on the latest episode of Stranger Things (which is totally an amazing idea, BTW!).
Self care can also mean making your space inviting and relaxing, which includes cleaning and reorganizing it to your liking.
That’s why it’s important to practice at-home self care activities like cooking, cleaning, and reorganizing.
Now, let’s get into some of my favorite things to do when I want to nurture myself in my sacred space.
23 At Home Self Care Activities:
1. Look back at old memories
Any time I want to reminisce about my past, I like to look at old childhood memories. Sometimes I shed a tear because I think about how simple life was back then, as a child (and in general).
It definitely doesn’t have to be that sad, though, HAHA.
When looking back at old memories, think about how much you’ve grown since then–whether it’s been 5 or 15 years.
You can reminisce on memories with family members or friends!
This is one of my favorite things to do along with my mom every once in a while. It also makes for some great bonding time with her!
2. Call a friend
When you’re bored at home, take that opportunity to chat it up with your friend.
Do you have any exciting news to share with them? Maybe you just finished a new, thrilling series, or maybe you even got promoted at your job!
Call your friend and, believe me, what you think will be a 30-minute conversation will easily become a 3-hour chat.
But those are the best conversations, right?! The ones that just naturally flow!
3. Take an online course
I’m not sure about you, but I am always learning.
Whether I’m watching TikToks, YouTube, or reading a blog post, I always use my phone to work for me, not against me.
I’m naturally a learner, so I like to teach myself even when I’m not at school. I like to learn about blogging, finances, self improvement, and college life (hence the reason I started my personal development blog).
I’ve taken online courses (specifically By Sophia Lee’s Ultimate BSL Blogging Bundle) to learn more about blogging.
I’m so glad I did because it took just a fraction of the time to go through these courses compared to reading articles and books, plus watching hours worth of YouTube videos to learn the same information.
Plus, usually in courses, you get access to private FaceBook groups, which is a bonus resource!
So, if you’re like me and you’re eager to fill your brain with knowledge, consider taking an online course. There are SO MANY areas and fields that you can learn about. It’s really up to you!
I mean, just take a look at the options you have:
- Health & Wellness
- Online Business
- Food and Nutrition
- Relationships
- Pregnancy
- Spirituality
- Social Media
- Personal Finance
- Fitness
On top of that, you have a plethora of platforms to use, like:
- Teachable (what I took the BSL course on)
- Skillshare
- Coursera
- LearnWorlds
- Thinkific
- Kajabi
- Podia
- WizIQ
- Academy of Mine
- Udemy
That’s just to name a few. It takes a simple Google search to find a wealth of resources to find the knowledge that you want to learn all about!

4. Listen to a podcast
Podcasts are another form of education and entertainment.
I started getting into them last year.
I feel like with podcasts you’re either OBSESSED with them or you don’t care for them at all. I’ll be honest; I wasn’t the biggest podcast fan at first.
I was definitely on the far right side of that spectrum.
But now… I don’t know how I went so long without listening to podcasts!
It took some of my favorite YouTubers like Alyssa Howard and Jathaly to start podcasts before I truly got into them though. I definitely didn’t just start randomly listening to them.
Currently, Alyssa is taking a break from her platform, but she plans to become more consistent as the new year approaches.
Jathaly has been posting great, strong content for months now!
So, if you haven’t gotten into podcasts, I recommend that you find a specific niche that you may enjoy. There are a TON of podcasts out there. I highly doubt you’ll have trouble finding the perfect podcast for you.
Yes, it may take time, but you’ll definitely find one eventually.
Here are some podcast niches to help you:
- Psychology
- Lifestyle
- Pop culture
- True crime
- Book reviews
- Personal development
- Sports
- Travel
- Retirement
- Entrepreneurship
- ASMR
- Art
- History
I encourage you to look for different podcasts to listen to. Once you’ve found one that you can call your “favorite,” come back to this post and comment the title and genre/niche. I want to know all about it!
My favorite podcast right now is the JathalTEA Podcast on YouTube.
They’re more of a lifestyle podcast. I definitely suggest that you try listening to them! They’re really entertaining and overall fun to listen to.
For anyone who wants to know, they post weekly on Thursday’s!
5. Start a DIY project
If you’re a crafty person, you can take advantage of your “bored time” and work on a new DIY project.
I feel like I’m writing to myself also because I wouldn’t consider myself the craftiest person alive. I definitely put my creative efforts into my blog.
But, who doesn’t love a challenge?!
Using this logic, you can (and should) start a DIY project no matter how skilled you are. You never know what the results could be.
Here are some fun DIY project ideas:
- Start scrapbooking
- Start a garden (I would totally do this!)
- Renovate a section of your home
- Declutter your home and donate unused items
- Organize your refrigerator
- Build a privacy fence in your backyard
- Build a bird bath
- Build a dog house
- Install a pot-hanging rack
- Paint a chalkboard wall (this sounds fun!)
- Install your dream bookshelves
- Install a reading nook (AKA your dream reading area)
6. Work on your skincare routine
Yay – one of my favorite topics: skincare!
I believe I’m qualified to talk about this subject because I’ve maintained a reasonable, consistent skincare routine since COVID times.
Yes, FOUR years of a consistent, efficient skincare routine, day and night, through and through. Easy, simple steps! I must thank Hyram, a skin care specialist and the owner and founder of Selfless By Hyram, for this.
During the pandemic a few years back, I learned more than ever about skincare.
Hyram was my go-to skincare fanatic, and he just seemed to know EVERYTHING there was about skincare. Thank you, Hyram!
Alright, how do you work on your skincare routine?!
Well, first I would:
- take a look at what products you’re using right now
What kinds of products are in your skincare regimen?
Retinols, under-eye creams, moisturizers, serums, anti-aging creams, sunscreens, cleansers—all of it. Take every product and analyze it.
Then:
- ask why you use each product
Why do you have retinol? Why do you have 5 different anti-aging creams? Why do you have 3 serums?
To fix your skincare routine, you need to realize that every product has a specific purpose.
Third:
- get rid of unnecessary products
I know, I know. It can be hard to say goodbye to old things.
But, we need to build better relationships with our skincare routines.
To have an effective skincare regimen, you really only need these THREE products:
- Cleanser (to make sure there is no dirt or grime on your face)
- Moisturizer (to make sure your face is nice, smooth, and free of flakiness)
- Sunscreen (to protect your face from the sun’s harsh rays)
Boom, that’s it!
I know it’s hard to believe that’s all you need, but sometimes less is more.
If you have dry skin and need a good, simple skin care routine, check out this post: 3-Step Simple Skin Care Routine for Dry Skin
Another tip: I suggest that you choose products that work best for YOUR skin type rather than buying trendy products.
What works for someone else won’t always work for you.
For example, I LOVE the La-Roche Posay Lipitor AP+ moisturizer. I’ve been using it since 2020. It’s worked wonders for my skin.
But, that doesn’t mean it will work as well for your skin.
You just have to try different products and experiment with them.
So, how do figure out your skin type?
Before we get into that, you’re probably asking, “What the heck is a skin type?!”
I found this informative article to help: What’s Your Skin Type?
After reading this, you can watch Hyram’s helpful video (that I’ve watched several times) to get a good *estimate* of what your skin type is: How to Find Your Skin Type | Skin Care 101
7. Meditate
Have you been stressed lately? Or, do you need a simple breather?
Try meditating!
If you don’t already know, meditation consists of taking deep, meaningful breaths while keeping your eyes shut.
It’s an experience that’s meant to allow you to connect to your soul and truly feel at comfort and at peace.
During this time, the goal is to avoid thinking about anything besides the present moment, and to focus on intentional breathing.
During meditation, the process of deep inhalation and exhalation can help you reduce your heart rate, which can then help you feel more at peace.
That’s why, when you finish, you feel more relaxed than you did when you started.
So, if you find yourself stressed at any time or you simply want to try some meditation, go ahead: close your eyes and deeply inhale and exhale for about 5 minutes.
You’ll be surprised at how much more at peace you feel when you finish.
8. Reorganize your bedroom
I can’t tell you HOW MANY times I’ve reorganized and rearranged my room.
It’s never planned; I’ll be lying in my bed and randomly get up and start moving things around.
After about 3 hours (and some intense back pain), I’d end up with a brand new bedroom.
It’s really fun and creative, so if you’re bored of your current bedroom layout, I encourage you to switch things up!
Remember, you don’t have to go out and buy a whole new room’s worth of decorations for a new look.
Like I did in the past, you can do something as simple as rearrange the layout of your bedroom to feel satisfied with the outcome.
If you must spice things up, though, you can grab pieces of furniture from other rooms and place them in your bedroom as you see fit.
For example, if your brother is no longer using his old nightstand, you can repurpose and use it in your newly renovated bedroom!
Bam: you were able to not only repurpose a piece of furniture but you also didn’t have to spend money on a new nightstand.
That’s what I’m talking about!
9. Write a letter to your past or future self
Have you ever written a letter to yourself?
It may sound funny, but it’s actually a really healing and fun experience.
All you need to write a letter to yourself is a pen and a piece of paper (oh, and maybe a bit of creativity).
If you’re writing to your younger self, take some time to look back at your childhood before you start writing. Think about all of your favorite moments as a child.
Going on vacation, spending time with your best friends, staying up late—all of the good stuff!
I do recognize that not everyone has the same childhood experience.
So, if you are one of these people, use this time to let your inner child know how you’re doing right now.
Remember, as cliche as this may sound, life really is all how you make it.
It’s about how you face your battles. Yes, you may have had a difficult childhood, but that doesn’t mean you can’t grow into an amazing, prosperous adult!
Speaking of adulthood, if you’re writing this letter to your future self, think about where you want to be:
- mentally
- physically
- relationally
- financially
- professionally
- educationally
…in 5, 10, even 20 years from now.
I want you to think BIG! Don’t say something typical like, “I want to save $20,000.”
Believe in yourself!
Instead, say something more meaningful like, “I want to continue to work on my mental health and be the best possible version of myself. I want to love myself like I love others, and prioritize myself in situations that I would normally put others above myself. I know that I deserve just as much love as I put out.”
I truly believe that the tongue is powerful. What comes out of your mouth really has the power to come true. So, use that to your full advantage!
10. Give yourself a manicure and/or pedicure
If you want a break from paying $40+ for a mani/pedi at the nail salon, give yourself an at-home spa treatment!
Not only is it much cheaper, but it feels more pampering because you’re the one giving yourself the luxury treatment.
Plus, you don’t have anyone to blame if you don’t like what your nails look like (haha).
You have complete control over what design you have. This is a great time to explore your creativity and go on Pinterest to search for different styles.
The sky is the limit when it comes to different nail designs.
Go ahead and treat yourself to a mani/pedi day! You deserve it!
11. Plan the upcoming week
This is one of those at-home self care activities that seems more like a chore than a self care activity, but in hindsight, it’s more beneficial than not.
When you plan your life, you’re much more organized, productive, and overall successful.
Let me ask you: How do you expect to succeed if your life is in shambles?
You need to develop a specific plan in order to reach your daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly goals. Otherwise, you’re setting yourself up for failure.
To help you out, I’m giving you my FREE daily planner.
I don’t know if I could go a single day without planning. I singlehandedly thrive on planning my daily life using a planner, and I know this planner can help you achieve your daily and weekly tasks.

12. Start a regular Bible study
Are you trying to get closer to God, but don’t exactly know where to start?
I recommend starting a regular Bible study.
A Bible study is a session that consists of reading a specific passage of the Bible and analyzing and interpreting it, and even applying specific verses to your life.
All you need for an effective Bible study is:
- a physical Bible (much better than digital; you connect in a better way)
- some highlighters (to highlight passages)
- basic notebook (to write notes and specific verses you relate to or are confused about)
You may look on TikTok, YouTube, or Pinterest and think, “These people have such nice Bible study stuff!”
But, the truth is, you don’t need all that nice stuff to engage in true, meaningful time with God.
Once you have these 3 essentials items, you can create a schedule for your Bible study.
Set a goal to study the Bible about 30 minutes everyday. I believe that’s a realistic goal, especially for a beginner.
Start with a prayer, asking God to give you clarity, an open and intentional mindset, and a spirit free of distraction. It’s crucial to start your Bible study with prayer.
It sets the right intentions for this precious time!
After prayer, find a passage of the Bible to start studying.
It’s widely recommended by the Christian community to start by reading the Book of Genesis. It’s the beginning of the Bible and tells the story of the creation, the fall, the blood, and more.
As you read, take notes on anything that you think is interesting, and especially things that confuse you. You’ll want to save these for later because you’ll ask God for understanding on these topics.
Also, try to interpret the information that’s in front of you.
You can’t just read the Bible (or any other book) without understanding it. Try to understand what the text is telling you, and apply the events to things that have happened to you or other people in your life.
You’ll be surprised how much you and other people relate to Bible!
After about 30-40 minutes, you should be ready to wrap things up. Now it’s time to end with another prayer.
In this prayer, you will thank God for His presence, His wisdom, and it’s also a time to ask for understanding on anything you may have been confused on earlier.
This is a simple Bible study!
If you want to try a different method, a popular method that Christians use is the S.O.A.P (Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer) method.

13. Make a vision board
Ah, yes. Vision boards!
We all make them at the end of the year when we gather all of our new year resolutions.
But, honestly, you can make a vision board at any point in the year, whether it’s January, June, or August.
You don’t have to wait until the very end of the year to make goals.
Start now!
Making a vision board is key to visually seeing your goals on a daily basis.
Tell me which is more helpful:
- Making a board full of motivating pictures that align with your specific goals and seeing the board everyday
- Making a list of vague goals in the notes app on your phone and never opening the note ever again
I’m pretty sure you’d agree that making a vision board is MILES ahead.
HOW DO YOU MAKE A VISION BOARD?
It’s actually an easy, simple, and even fun process!
You make either a physical or digital vision board. The difference is pretty self-explanatory.
A physical vision board is an actual tangible board that you can touch, and a digital one is one that you make on your device, like your phone, computer, or tablet.
For simplicity sake, I’m going to show you how to make a digital vision board. (I will say, though, a physical one is much more effective because you see it everyday, especially if you hang it above your desk.)
First, think of what goals you want to accomplish.
These can be financial, professional, academic, fitness, self care, and/or relationship goals. The list goes on!
If anything, this is the longest, hardest part of the process because you have to take time to really think about the areas in your life that you’re struggling in, and why and how you’re going to approach them.
After you get through the first step, you can go on Pinterest and look for some motivating pictures.
Make sure that you look for specific pictures that align with your goals and add them to a board called “Vision Board.”
For example, if you want to travel to Paris, don’t search “airplane.”
Why?
That’s not specific enough!
Instead, search for something like, “Eiffel Tower.”
That way, you can link that to your specific goal of traveling to Paris.
Repeat this step for all of your goals.
Don’t go overboard, though!
You really only need 1-2 pictures for every goal. If you add more, you’ll end up with a messy board that doesn’t have much of a purpose.
It will instead look like a bunch of pictures staked on top of each other, which won’t look very aesthetic.
After you find all of your photos, save them to your device and go to Canva (app or website).
I can’t say enough about Canva. I use them for my vision boards, blog visuals, phone wallpapers, and so much more.
You can do just enough with a free account, so there’s no need to upgrade to the pro version unless you want access to more features (like resizing and more templates).
Once you’re in Canva, press the ‘Create a design’ button, then press ‘Create custom design,’ then enter these dimensions:
- 1920 x 1080 px
These are the dimensions for a vision board.
Hit ‘Create new design’
Here’s what your blank document should look like:
Once you’re here, go to the ‘Photos’ tab on the left-hand side and start uploading your photos that you found from Pinterest.
Then start playing around with them. Move them around in different spots and make them different sizes.
It can be a bit stressful at first trying to fit them perfectly, but don’t worry; you’ll eventually get the hang of it.
Once you’re satisfied with your pictures, you can add some text overlay.
Press the ‘Text’ button and add whatever text you’d like. Usually, I add the year (for example, 2024). You could also add an inspiring word like “growth.”
It’s all up to you!
When you’re done, press the ‘Share’ button in the upper right-hand corner, then download your vision board.
I suggest using this as your wallpaper on your laptop, computer, or tablet so see it any time you use your devices and use it as a daily reminder to work toward your goals.
14. Take a (good, long) nap
You’re not lazy for wanting to take a nap. You’re also not childish for still taking naps.
Every once in a while, a good nap is necessary.
Whether you had a long, stressful day, or you didn’t get enough sleep last night, you might feel a little bit restless by 4 or 5 PM.
If you don’t have any extremely demanding tasks, go ahead and treat yourself to a nap.
It may be a power nap (10-15 minutes) or even one of those naps that will make you wake up in complete confusion (IYKYK).
Regardless, take it!
One of my favorite nap accessories is my blanket with sleeves from Amazon. I’ve had it since 2021.
It’s amazing because it keeps my arms nice and warm, and I don’t have to take my arms out of it when I want to grab something like my phone or the remote.
If you want to grab one for yourself, get it here: Blanket with Sleeves
Remember, self care isn’t selfish! You need to take time to dedicate meaningful time to yourself.
15. Listen to music
Do you love to listen to music as much as I do?
I don’t know if or how I could get through life without music. It’s healing, relatable, and all of the above!
So, if you don’t have anything to do at home, throw on your headphones and play your favorite playlist or album.
If you’re in need of some good music to listen to, I’ve been listening to:
- RENAISSANCE by Beyonce
- Ctrl by SZA
- Positions by Ariana Grande
- Pink Friday 2 by Nicki Minaj
- The Age of Pleasure by Janelle Monae
- Jaguar II by Victoria Monet
16. Have a dance party
Related to the previous activity, consider having a dance party!
This is one of my favorite things to do when I’m bored at home. Not to mention, it’s also a great workout and an extremely therapeutic experience.
Put on your favorite upbeat songs and let all your feelings (and dance moves) out!
17. Do some online shopping
Now, I’m not one to recommend retail therapy because it hurts your pockets, big time.
BUT!
If you happen to have some extra spending money and you want to shop, then I’d let it slide.
After all, online shopping has got to be one of the most fun, (temporary) fulfilling experiences ever, right?
You go to your favorite online shop, browse through the sales, and before you know it, you’ve placed a $200 order ($50 of that came from extra items because you didn’t want to pay for shipping!).
Plus, in-store shopping just isn’t the same anymore—especially with shoes.
You see a pair of shoes you like, ask for them in your size, and the employee comes back from the back room with the dreaded, “Sorry, we don’t have your size.”
So… if anything, online shopping has really become the trend!
THINK: Do you like to shop? Tell me in the comments!
18. Journal
Journaling is by far one of the BEST things you can do for your mental health.
It’s a nearly free resource: all you need is a pen, a notebook, and a few thoughts.
Sit down, reflect on how you’ve been feeling lately, and let the pen do the magic.
Don’t think too much about it; I promise it’s a much easier process that it seems.
Before you know it, you’ll end up with 3-5 (maybe more) pages of purely vulnerable thoughts and emotions.
To get started journaling, you can use my FREE daily journal.
Like I said, I believe journaling is one of the best mental health activities, so I wanted to offer this journal to help you embark on your personal growth journey.
Check it out below!
FREE DAILY JOURNAL
You can get started on your personal growth journey using my FREE daily journal!
This journal is my favorite because it includes a section to mark how you’re feeling before you start writing, plus just enough lines to let all your feelings out.
Journaling is absolutely one of my favorite ways to practice emotional/mental self care, and my free daily journal can help you do just that.

19. Cook a new meal
Whether you love to cook or have never cooked a nice meal for yourself before, being bored at home is the perfect chance to experiment and try cooking a new meal!
Take some time to browse through Pinterest for some recipe ideas. You can find all kinds of recipes on Pinterest—even keto- and vegan-friendly recipes.
There’s absolutely no reason you shouldn’t be able to find a tasty recipe to try out.
Once you find a recipe you want to try, you can either use ingredients you have at home or order them if you need to. That way, you don’t have to step foot out of your home.
Because that is the goal, right?
I challenge you to find a new recipe and make it. It doesn’t have to be perfect—chances are, it won’t be anyway.
The real goal is to try something new (preferably with ingredients you already have in your kitchen).
20. Take a bath
A relaxing bath will always hit the spot, especially late at night.
You’re never too old for a bath; don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
Plus, you can do so many things while taking a bath:
- read
- listen to music
- watch Netflix
- eat a snack
- meditate
- do Bible study
- text your friends
- scroll through social media
- simply enjoy your bath
From bath bombs to bath salts, you can add all kinds of fun things to make your bath even more enjoyable.
21. Clean out and organize your closet
Is your closet full of clothes that you haven’t worn in years?
It might be time to clean it out, friend.
I get it; cleaning and organizing your closet can seem like a big challenge, but in reality, it’s really not that big of a hassle.
You really just have to start small and work your way up to the bigger task at hand.
Start by taking all of your clothes out of your closet and separate everything into 3 piles:
- Keep
- Donate/sell
- I’m not sure yet
This will help you determine what clothes you want to keep and give away, and ultimately reduce the amount of clutter in your closet (which is a MUST if you have a small closet like I do).
How do you organize your closet?
I like to organize my clothes by:
- Color
- Type of clothing
For example, the first things that hang on my rack are long-sleeved shirts. They are color-coded, starting with black shirts, going down to red shirts.
You can definitely use this organization method, or you can find another method that might work better for your space!
Once you start this, it’s important to make it a routine. Don’t just do it once and then forget about it for the rest of the year.
In order to keep your closet looking nice and organized, you need to go back and organize it on a regular basis.
That means constantly making sure that you’re keeping your wardrobe updated with clothes that you actually wear, and not things that you don’t care about anymore.
I clean and organize my closet every 3 or so months, and that works just fine for me. The bigger your closet is, though, the more often you might have to clean it, since you’re more likely to have more clothes.
And more space means more what?
Clutter!
You don’t want that.
22. Clean your environment
OK, this is a little vague because your “environment” could mean several different areas: your bedroom, your house as a whole, or even your car.
So, I’d say you should focus on which one you’ve been procrastinating on cleaning the most.
For example, if it’s your bedroom, make a plan to start small by picking up any clothes that might be on the floor.
Then, continue by picking up any small trash like soda cans or napkins off the floor.
Doing things this way can make cleaning a much easier task compared to trying to trying to multitask (which, if you didn’t already know, is impossible).
23. Host a family game night
Lastly, here’s a fun one: host a family hame night!
If you love to spend time with your family and you have a competitive spirit, hosting a family game night is the perfect at-home self care activity.
You might be thinking, “How is hosting a family game night considered self care?”
Keep in mind that self care doesn’t entirely mean that you’re doing things on your own—or at least that’s what I believe.
You can totally do things with others and still consider it self care.
As long as you’re doing things do feel good and aren’t harmful to yourself or anyone else, I think that qualifies as self care.
To have a successful family game night, you need to have, a good variety of games and different prizes.
Here of some of the best games to play with your family:
- Uno (a classic)
- Monopoly (yes, the long, dreaded board game – but I love it!)
- Apples to Apples
- Life
- Would You Rather
- Charades
- Celebrity
- Bingo (my FAVORITE)
- Three Truths and a Lie
- Blank Slate
At Home Self Care Activities
Let’s recap.
In this post, we talked about the best things you can do at home to care for your mental wellbeing:
- Look back at old memories
- Call a friend
- Take an online course
- Listen to a podcast
- Start a DIY project
- Work on your skincare routine
- Plan the upcoming week
- Reorganize your bedroom
- Write a letter to your past or current self
- Give yourself a manicure and/or pedicure

These are my favorite things to do when I want to practice self care at home, and I know you’ll enjoy doing them, too!
