What keeps my spririt joyful is by remembering to do the things I truly love to do. It's a bit harder now that I'm a mother but I try to fit it all in.
Here are some examples:
1. Watch comedies during the week
2. Read interesting articles
3. Check my weekly horoscope
4. Sing to my baby
5. Cook
6. Chat with my best friend
7. Do something thoughtful for a friend or family member
8. Play with colors
9. Write
10. Remember to be thankful everyday
11. Inhaling and drinking fresh brewed coffee..hmm...
By doing these things, I get to release some of my anxiety and stress. It's easy to let negativity and stress build without even realizing it until it blows up. Sometimes you don't even realize how much you are internalizing until one day something happens and you are so on edge that you blow your lid. Remembering to do joyful things just for yourself helps to balance things out. Simple things. It doesn't have to be extravagent. Anything that just takes you back to yourself and what you love. As long as it puts a small smile on your face, you're good to go.
