4. A simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself．Exercise can not only help you maintain your regular weight, but also make you feel better about yourself．

4．Travel and allow yourself to be interested in new people．

Don't just limit yourself to your fellow travelers - try to connect with the service staff．You never know what kind of people they're going to be． Get out of your house or go online right now to book your class． 5.
