Laupala,
Hi. I find using my hands to be very relaxing. I make jewelry and the twisting looping braiding parts become hand memory and my brain is chillin.
A few weeks ago my family made egg rolls and I found wrapping them very relaxing.
I also like looking at pictures on my iPad or phone. Pictures don't bother me like looking at other things. Doctor said it involves a different part of the brain. There are many websites with a huge variety of pictures.
I hope this helps.
Jace
