“The most important thing is to enjoy your life – to be happy – it’s all that matters”                      Audrey Hepburn

My advice is to start small, but do it “big”.  For example, plan a walk at a particular time and in a particular place that is new and different.  Not for exercise, not for distance.  Simply for your own enjoyment.  This is the easiest way to begin, I think.  The purpose of your first planned walk should just be to enjoy yourself.  Try to go without any devices.  Notice everything around you.  Sounds, sights, the air.  Try to memorize all of the scenery and just let your thoughts wander wherever they want to go.  Relax and allow yourself to breathe easy.  This will be the start of your many upcoming “A Table For One” events!  Enjoy every minute of it.  You’re celebrating you!
