Whenever I am watching TV or movies, anything except comedy, I continually hum, and have done so all my life. Sometimes I hum an actual tune, but in the vast majority of the time, I hum  just 2 or 3 random notes, which I will repeat for really long periods of time. Sometimes it is in unison with a main note in the background music, or a harmony,  but most times the notes have nothing to do with the music soundtrack. As you can imagine, it distracts and irritates other people to varying degrees. My solution, since I haven't been able to stop it, is just to watch alone. If you still don't understand what I am talking about, imagine sitting next to someone humming the cello notes to the theme from JAWS while you are trying to concentrate on an episode of The Gilmore Girls, or Dateline, or Law & Order.  I've done this my whole life, and it soothes me while at the same time it embarrasses me because I can't stop without starting up again a couple of minutes later, usually unbeknownst to me. I'm not actually looking for a cure for this. I just want to know if I am the only one, and does anybody know why I might do it, or where it comes from? Thanks for your time. Peace.♧

So, at least for me, there is something about LiveCams of animals, especially BABY ANIMALS that brings a calming, comforting and more positive feeling to me. Also, a LiveCam of the beautiful Aurora Borealis! In turn, Filling My Mighty Bucket! Below are some links if you would like to check them out! Does watching animals on LiveCams Fill Your Mighty Bucket? Is there anything else that you would like to share?

I hope I can do this! I came across 2 YouTube sites I would be remiss to not mention!:
Great Art Explained
Perspective
For me, these are 2 of the most healthy-self care distractions I have ever come across! Intellectually stimulating yet very soothing. Watching these brings me totally in the moment. Each episode is a fascinating look at famous great art. I’ve watched 5 episodes and I can’t believe i am happily learning art history, without even trying 😀😀😀!
Can I say this🥰? Something to take a look at.
(What do you think😀?)

I know it’s goofy but I love this stupid game. I turn off the monsters and create different cool buildings and play around with patterns and stuff. It really kicks my anxiety to the side for a while.
