Enjoy it yourself/Enjoy it on your own

Hello there,

Which of these phrases can be used in the following context:

Someone's enjoying doing something you have no interest in. You want to tell them that what they're doing is not your thing, but they can go ahead and enjoy it all they want.

Is it:

"Enjoy it yourself". (not sure if this sentence's grammatical or if I just think it sounds fine because of the influence of my native language)

or:

"Enjoy it on your own". (this seems, to me, to convey the message one wants to get across pretty well, but I'm not sure if it sounds idiomatic)

And, aside from that, what are some other expressions that could be used in this context? (and mean roughly the same thing, of course)

I might say something like "It's not really my thing, but you go ahead and enjoy it". I don't see the need to add "yourself" or "on your own".
