Stimming stuff - maybe. But not exclusively.
Today I was standing on a train station when a soft, cool breeze blew against my skin and I like that. I really like it. All my attention was on it - the force / pressure of the wind, the soft feel of it against my skin and the way it moved across the surface to different areas and directions, the rustling feeling of it moving the hairs on my skin, the cool temperature and how it differed touching different parts of my body exposed or clothed, how it made the clothing move, the slight moisture content of it at odds with the warm day, the sound of it touching me, the involuntary reaction of the skin to the sensation, the smell of it like sunlight on concrete.
I love that. I love being absorbed in it. What physical stimulus do you enjoy in this way? Can you describe it in detail?

Showering in water, that is exactly skin-tempered or one nano-degree cooler. it is like being touched by silk or even like floating. It is so soft.
Looking at spinning things.
The sight of glittering, shimmering things. (Love my massage balls with colored lights).

Jumping and landing in a pile of foam matresses. It´s like flying.
Moving in water.

Music. (Yes, for me it is physical stimulus...) I feel each note at a different place in my head and in my body. Music is a body massage. i love it , love it.

Closing my eyelids and rubbing my eyeballs vigorously

Wow! That sounds great! You are a good writer. I can imagine myself there. My preferences are VERY similar, but I prefer the sun a little more than the breeze. When you can feel a slight warmth, even on a cool day. When the sun shines through the trees, casting lights and shadows on the grass. When the breeze blows the branches, making the lights and shadows dance. When the sun sparkles on the water. When the sun changes the color of the sky to pastels at sunset.

Even though some autistics dislike light touch for sensory reasons, I also like lightly brushing up against things with my body, but not my fingers.
