Ever had one of those days where no matter what you do (or eat) you can't get a smile on your face, well a real one anyway. Here's what to do. Take a notepad, or your laptop, or some sort of device where you can store these things. And write down a few things that make you feel better. Whether it be a quote, song, person, photo or something you can do. These are ten of mine.
1. Do my hair and makeup. There is something that I love when I apply a stack of make up and fool around with a new hairstyle. It takes my mind off of what was upsetting me and I really have to apply myself. Sometimes I take a celebrity photo and try and imitate it.
2. Go for a jog. Exercise releases endorphins which basically is happiness. And most people look hot in a pair of jogging pants. Nothing makes you feel better then a total stranger giving you a compliment on how you look or your dedication. Your body will thank you too.
3. Yoga. Everyone knows yoga is made to relax you. Go somewhere quiet, play some relaxing music and get a stretching. Make sure you google some techniques so you aren't standing there like a fool.
4. Write. I am a writer so it might not be for everyone. I once knew someone that enjoyed doing math when they were upset or stressed. But I write. It doesn't necessarily have to make sense either. Hence why my Blog can seem like total cr*# sometimes.
5. Dance around in my underwear. Not only is it exercise but it makes you feel stupid but good at the same time. A lil T Mills.
6. Cook and eat. There is nothing like having the satisfaction of making a big meal that tastes amazing and eating it all yourself.
7. Phone my mum. Friends are okay to talk to but your Mum is the one person that will never judge you and can make you laugh. Well mine anyway.
8. Go through my wardrobe. You never know what you will find. Find some new outfits, take some photo's of them and share them too the world.
9. Go shopping. Even window shopping can cheer you up. But spending some money on the new pair of jeans you need is always a good feeling.
10. Watch a reallllyy sad movie. Comedies are ok but I like to watch them and think how good my life is compared to theirs. Even biggest loser makes me feel better. Its cruel but I can't help but think 'thank god I'm not fat'.
So there we go. Probably pretty useless. But give it a go. And finally. Smile. It does make you feel better.
Keep smilin'
