What do you need to do?
Put your senses to work and keep it simple!
Scent and smell, let your nose work
Once a day, make a meal that you think smell good, you know that kind of smell that takes you places or brings out a positive emotion.
Vision, give the eyes something to feast on
Eat the color of the rainbow, try to find some new colors to add to what you normally eat. Eating many colors actually raise the chance of you getting a wide variation of fibers and nutrients.
Taste, remember balance
Spice up the food and exercise your taste buds. Taste during cooking. Try to balance it up so you can feel some salt, some sweet and some sour(to freshen things up like some lemon or something like that)
Exercise the brain
Exercise in finding positive meaning in one event per day.
Be social
