into practice, science writer Catherine Price hosted a #Funtervention in February . The intention was to do one fun thing every day, big or small. Five thousand people took part from around the world.
Vermani agrees. “I think it is important for us right now – at this point in time when the world seems to be reopening and returning to a more normal state – to give ourselves a pat on the back. We survived a challenging time,” she says. “Just as it took time for us to learn how to do what we had to do during the pandemic, it’s going to take time to recover.”
Felisia Canedo, a communications professional in Montreal, rediscovered how to have fun through a new passion – K-pop. “Last year through Instagram, I ended up finding this community that introduced me to this whole new world. I ended up making so many new friends, the most I’ve probably made since my school days. And it completely changed my perception of fun,” she says.
“Having something like that to look forward to can give people not only joy in the moment, but joy of anticipation,” Harrison says. Price says that fun should be had every day and recommends structuring your life and leisure time so that there’s always something on the calendar to look forward to.
