The time of the year when everyone is planning for expensive vacations, trying for cheap flights or hotel deals, expensive wine, splurge or, for that matter, shopping for gifts. How about going minimalistic and make a difference to yours or someone's else life? A few ideas this Xmas season.
1. Craft Santa Claus DIY Greeting cards that can be sold on social media, bookshops or supermarkets to earn a decent profit at an affordable price. You can also contribute one-tenth of the proceed to charity.
2. Go on a solo trip, breathe and take it easy being with yourself leaving all stress behind.
3. Fund the education of a child or Girl Child, contribute to a social cause empowering women or spend a day in a shelter with underprivileged children surprising them with homemade food, chocolates and sweets.
4. Treat yourself with Ayurvedic massage and go for a self-healing course.
5. Learn to play a new musical instrument, be it piano, guitar or sarong.
6. Binge watch movies or sitcoms for an entire day on Net Flix.
7. Treat yourself to the favorite iced cake or chocolate fudge you've been craving and resisting the temptation for months in the quest for diet control.
8. Hide gifts under the bed, pillows, kitchen and couch days before Xmas, forget about it and discover it on the day or invite children to pull the covers to pick a random one.
9. Go on a road trip, exploring the picturesque views and if you are with your partner, make out in the car. A merry affair to remember.
10. Gatecrash a party, yeah right! Be bold and be a risk taker.
