I enjoy relaxing in places of peace and beauty, floating in warm water, catching UV rays, traveling, eating healthy food, skiing, kayaking, hiking, biking, reading, listening to music, dancing, looking at and feeling art, exercising, singing, smiling, laughing, being with other beings, and a plethora of other pleasurable activities that cultivate and release positive energy.
