6 things better to do than watch Netflix
August 26, 2020
If Netflix and all the other streaming and gaming services are starting to fry your brain, maybe it’s time to try something new.
Step away from the TV, put down the remote and give yourself a virtual treat to mix up the weekend and lift your spirits.
1. Cook, sip or sup?
The venues at South Wharf in Melbourne have connected and have a few experiences on offer. Give Thai cooking a go, bond with other whisky aficionados or join the wine and cheese gurus.
2. Paint the afternoon away
Engage the right side of your brain and get creative in an online painting class. This experience is easy to share with friends and you’ll either paint something amazing, or you’ll produce a disaster to giggle over later.
3. Get back to nature…inside
Feeling stressed? Then surround yourself with plants. Studies show that being in a place that provides you with a sense of nature will significantly lower your stress* so bring some green into your home with an online flower or plant course.
4. Quarantinis anyone?
If you need a distraction from the hum drum of everyday life, then this could be the course for you. Sign up for an online cocktail or mocktail class and become everyone’s favourite at your next party.
5. Turn isolation into iSEWlation
Got a sewing machine? If not, borrow one, learn some sewing tips and tricks and create something wonderful. There are lots of online sewing classes available but the Glen Eira Council in Melbourne is offering free courses in their Saturday iSEWlation series.
6. Become super informed
Need some help understanding your super investment? Then join one of our online webinars and learn the basics. The webinars are at no additional cost to you and run regularly throughout the year.
