Whenever you find some field or topic interesting the chances are you can find some book, blog, or newspaper articles on the topic and research into it yourself. It doesn't even have to cost money if you make use of your local library. Also, because it's just a hobby you don't have to worry about understanding or being good at anything, although I think that trying your best to understand definitely enhances the experience.
Doing this also prepares you for the future as you'll have a wider breadth of knowledge and connections to draw on, as well as strengthening your researching skills.

Find something that tickles ur brain and dive in, ideally sitting at a desk and having some kind of place to take notes, write questions you have, and note down resources. I think it can really improve your relationship to yourself to see that ur capable of not just scrolling mindlessly for hours, but for caring deeply about a topic, treating it seriously and with curiosity. Doesnโ€™t need to be an intellectual topic at all! Iโ€™ve just started lap swimming so am โ€˜studyingโ€™ freestyle technique, what drills to do, the swimming styles of various Olympians etc

i love being an information sponge! it doesn't matter if the subjects have no direct connection to your chosen tradeโ€“ by proxy of you learning about these topics, your brain starts making connections and allows you to think more creatively about how you approach problems within your life and maybe even your career field!

Everybody has a lot of things and people whom they love and although it can be hard to tell somebody directly that you love them I think it's worth spreading any love that you can in the world.

You can have it with some tea or coffee and it's almost like you're out at a cafe but in the pleasance of your own home. Also lets you take a moment out of your day to enjoy and focus on something.
