Happy Tuesday beauties! My posts may appear a bit sporadic over the next couple of weeks as I have a lot going on. With that I mind I wanted to share 7 things to do everyday to look after yourself. Now, these aren’t major things to do everyday, but just little things that can help you feel good.
7 Things To Do Everyday
Wake Up With Gratitude
I’ve been in places in my life where I woke up feeling grumpy and it did nothing for me or my day! So, I decided to start thinking of 5 things I was grateful for each day. At first, it was the usual food, clothing and shelter thing which felt fake but, after time it soon changed. Suddenly I was grateful for being able to book that spontaneous trip. Or that I got a text message from friends who just wanted to say hello. It’s the little things.
Be Kind
No, I don’t think that you go out into the world being unkind but, what about yourself? Are you kind to you? Are you telling yourself things that you would never dream of saying to anyone? We have this record playing in the back of our minds and it gets to the point where we no longer hear what it’s saying. But our unconscious is hearing it daily and it affects us. So stop being mean to yourself and say a kind word or several each day.
Drink Water
You know I go on about not being a dehydrated mess and that’s because drinking water makes you feel better. If you’re dehydrated then you are most likely cranky, tired and have no motivation for anything. Just hydrate yourself everyday and over time you will see a difference. You might even find that your skin is glowing so much you don’t need a highlight! I’m just saying 🙂
Take A Break
Take a break from the computer, tv, phone, social media and everything else with a screen. We get so tied down to technology that we miss the valuable human connection.
Go Outside
So when you take a break, you can go outside in the sunshine and relish in it. Take a walk on your lunch break, even if it’s just for 20 mins. If there’s a park nearby go sit in nature and just breathe. You will find that your head gets a bit clearer and home-time comes faster 😉
Find the Humour
Laughter really is the best medicine and if you open your eyes, there’s something to tickle your funny bone. If you don’t observe something, have conversations with people and something will make you laugh. Or, you can read a book!
Food
My final tip is basically to make your main meal a healthy one. If you don’t look after your body, where will you live? So load up on vegetables and all the good stuff that will treat your insides kindly. What type of diet you choose is your choice, just make sure it works for you and your body.
Those are my 7 things to do everyday which are really simple and easy to implement. Life is too short to live a miserable existence. What are you 7 things to do everyday? Let me know in the comments below.
