This is not reddit. The answers here might range from spent twelve hours researching the love songs of clamps to sex, drugs and rock'n'roll and they will be equally valid, because dealing in tech does not match with the US nerd stereotypes.

Before 6pm: Nice breakfast, feed the dogs/cats, work, think about the impending doom of civilization, work a bit more.
After 6pm: Go Jogging, gather with friends at the usual spot or through discord. If bored, play games, watch streams.
9-10am wake up, coffee, read news and deal with notifications on my phone
10am-6pm working (breaks for lunch and other random life stuff)
6pm-2am leisure time (video games, movies, going out, playing instruments, side projects, etc)

I've been using Sam Harris's Waking Up app for about 10 days now and enjoy it much more than Headspace. I love that he includes theory as well as guided meditation.
Another item I just started is Monk Manual. I enjoy the monthly, weekly, and daily formats. TBD if the habit sticks once the novelty of an "analog" diary wares off.
Other than I just try to drink water every hour or so and do some pushups/pullups when I enter/leave my workspace.

I've been using Waking Up for a couple of years after not being able to get into Headspace. Something about the voice and style just works better for me in Waking Up. I still did not start regularly doing the daily sessions until recently, but have been loving consuming the theory sessions and conversations. I think David Whyte's series has been my favorite, as well as a couple he had on the science of consciousness. The sleep series with Walker was also great, even if much of it rehashed the book.
My only complaint with the conversation-based series is that sometimes I feel like Harris talks too much and goes on mini-rants, not really letting the other speaker...well, speak. I noticed this with the sleep series especially. A couple of times Walker tried to get into some conventional and less-conventional sleep advice/strategies which I was really curious about, but Harris kept getting sidetracked and I'm pretty sure Walker never did get to express that advice he wanted.
In one of the recent daily meditations, Harris said that some of the dailies would be led by other people. I'm sure it will be very well done, but I do worry a bit that I might not be able to get into the other speakers' voice and meditation style (like with Headspace and several other guided meditation attempts). We'll see how it goes.

Alcohol and I vape a lot.
