Summer Self-Care Bingo
Join us as we refresh and play self-care bingo along with us!
This week: I10 — See a Live Performance
With summer in full swing, our team has been seeing live performances around the country! Dusty saw a local musical in Iowa, Emily saw a show at The Gorge in Washington, Ali saw a show in Newton, IA, Kelli got up close in Seattle, Maddie saw a show in Vancouver, BC and Gail and Doug saw a show in Las Vegas. We all happened to see live music/musicals but there are so many other ways to get this fun self care box checked off! Check out a list of ideas below.
More ideas for you:
- Go to a read aloud at the library
- How about a baseball game? We'll count a live game of any kind as a live performance! :)
- Try searching "music in the park" to see if there's a community near you with a free performances coming up
- Or ask your kids, nieces, nephews, friend's kids (okay any kids) to read to you, sing their favorite song, dance, etc. Basically, anything can be a live performance. :)
- Bonus: Bring a picnic to also cross off #B2: Have a Picnic

Samantha was on vacation in South Dakota and went for a hike to catch this beautiful sunset! Whether a sunset or a sunrise, this is a great way to admire the beauty of nature all around us.

This week: G18 — Connect with a Friend
Maddie and I met up with a friend from college to go on a walk and have a picnic. They both had babies this year so it looked a little different with strollers and babies and the first playdate was a success! Connecting with friends is good for the soul so check this one off this week!
More ideas for you:
- This doesn't have to be in person, you can also connect with a friend over the phone or video chat
- Bonus: Go for a walk to also cross off #N15: Take a walk and notice something new
- Bonus: Meet for a sunrise/sunset to also cross off #G19: Watch a Sunrise or Sunset

This week: N14 — Go on a Road Trip
Ali and her family went on a road trip to South Dakota to see Mount Rushmore! It was also on her bucket list so she crossed off two boxes in one!
More ideas for you:
- The trip doesn't have to be far to be considered a road trip. Just pack some snacks, a good playlist and hop in the car!
- Bonus: Pull out a blanket at a stop for food and also cross off #B2: Have a Picnic
- Bonus: Take a road trip to a hiking spot and also cross off #G17: Go on a Hike
Where are you heading this summer?

This week: O24 — Visit a Loved One
Over the weekend, we headed into the countryside to visit family and had the best time! Got to soak up some country air and get all caught up with our loved ones. And just remember, a visit doesn't have to be far away or long to get the self care benefits.
More ideas for you:
- This could be a visit with a family member or a friend
- Video chat with a loved one and visit virtually
- Bonus: Make it a road trip like we did and cross off #N14: Go on a Road Trip
- Bonus: You can also cross off #O23: Listen to an audiobook or podcast
What are you crossing off this week?

This week: B8 —Go Swimming or Sit By Water
It's not quite warm enough for swimming in Seattle but it sure is reading outside weather! I grabbed a cup of coffee, found an open bench at a park near my house and read my book by the water. I took a moment to enjoy the views of the city and soaked up every second.
More ideas for you:
- swim in a pool
- float in a river
- read by a pond
- play at a beach
- Bonus: You can also cross off #B2: Have a Picnic by picnicking by the water
Even if you just have a few moments, it adds up. So, take a few well-earned moments to recharge.
