Hi, I would say these things have helped me a lot:

Spending time with old friends
New activities and new friends
Practicing gratitude
Meditation
Therapy (in the early days)
Reading and posting on this forum and reading around the subject too
Divorce recovery group
Taking up dancing
Yoga
Caring for my Mum who has dementia
Work - but a nice balance - not too much of it
Volunteering in a charity bookstore
Upcycling furniture (again early days)
Sitting in the garden with the sun on my face or getting out for a walk
Treating myself kindly
Speaking my truth & greater authenticity
Laughing with friends
Looking nice and treating myself to nice things
Little treats - making a nice little meal etc.
Truly letting go and accepting - he will live his own life and do what he will do - I will do the same.

I'm sure there are more, but hope this helps xxx
