I would say start looking at good first issues label on Github open source repos. opensourcefriday.com is a good start. I find contributing in open source code incredibly useful for me as a dev, it expands your horizon, exposes you to new techs, helps you connect with likeminded individuals, learn from them. You can give it a shot, no matter how small or big your contribution is, it matters.

Definitely some form of exercising!
I love to run although I find it hard to find time for it since I am usually tired when I get home from work but did create a schedule for myself.
