For adult women: solo activities you can enjoy, and a chance to discover new hobbies

Watching movies and dramas

[Top 15] Highest-Rated Korean Dramas on Netflix Chosen by Japanese Viewers 🏆 [Synopsis/Highlights]

Do you see time alone as lonely, or as a luxurious treat? With the diversification of leisure—and after the COVID-19 pandemic—more people seem to enjoy doing things solo.

If we focus on “watching,” homebodies might binge dramas on Netflix, while outdoorsy types could head to a suburban movie theater.

Whether you jump on the latest trends or chase niche titles that match your tastes, going solo lets you enjoy what you love without worrying about anyone else.

Indian TV serials, Argentine films—if you’re into visual media, it’s an endlessly fascinating way to spend your free time!

Go to the art museum

[4K] Touring 8 Art Museums and Museums in Kyoto — KYOTO MUSEUM TOURS #KyotoMuseumRoad

Japan is often said to have relatively few art museums and museums compared to other developed countries.

That said, even just in Tokyo, you can readily name several: the National Art Center, Tokyo; the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum; and the National Museum of Western Art, among others.

In fact, people who say, “I’m not very knowledgeable about art,” may be able to enjoy museums all the more without preconceptions.

Simply viewing works by famous painters featured in art textbooks—Monet, Gauguin, Picasso, and others—can give you an indescribable sense of power.

If you’d like to visit museums more casually, the Ghibli Museum, Mitaka, and the Mitsuo Aida Museum are also recommended.

Be sure to check out solo exhibitions by illustrators and manga artists as well.

Yoga

Alongside saunas, yoga has surged in popularity.

Some experts say the boom began with hot yoga in low-temperature sauna rooms and eventually led to a rise in the number of people practicing yoga.

For a change of pace, improved concentration, health maintenance, and even beauty—why not take a peek into the world of yoga? If you check your town’s public bulletin, you’ll likely find yoga classes for residents, and many fitness clubs also offer yoga programs.

If you’d rather not go out, using yoga videos online to loosen up and learn on your own is a great option too.

With the right knowledge, enjoy a healthy yoga practice!

Reading

If you want to spend some relaxing time alone, how about enjoying a good book? You could read a novel and immerse yourself in a world different from your daily life, or pick up a business book to expand your professional knowledge.

Focusing on reading in a quiet room can surprisingly help reduce stress.

There’s even music made specifically for reading these days, so it’s also a great idea to sip a coffee while listening to it as you read.

Enjoy reading in whatever style you like.
