Are you having a bad day? Is everything going wrong? Maybe it’s your family’s attitudes as if they woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Or maybe you did! Starting the day off on the wrong foot can make your whole day absolutely miserable. With a negative outlook, things are only bound to be negative throughout the day. If you’re having a bad day…
Here’s 5 Ways You Can Make It Better:
Close Your Eyes, Take a Deep Breath & Refocus. Get rid of the negativity clouding your thoughts. Get back on track with what you have to get done today step by step. Don’t get overwhelmed with a long list of to do’s. Check things off one at a time and you will be on your way to a productive and positive outlook on the day.
Talk to a Friend. I think we all have that one friend or family member who is always in a great mood and just loves life. They always turn lemons into lemonade and being around them or talking to them just puts you in a better mood. Let their positive energy rub off on you! 😉
Exercise. Hit the gym, go for a bike ride, a brisk walk or even do a little work in your garden. Get moving and get your blood flowing. When you exercise your body releases endorphins which trigger positive feelings in your body. Even a half an hour of activity can make a huge difference! You’re worth it, so set aside that time for yourself.
Know You’re Not Alone. There are days, especially as a mother when you feel like a failure. Where you feel like no one understands you and that you are all alone. The truth is, you’re NOT alone! There are so many mothers out there who feel the same way and who understand where you are coming from. You can meet up with a group of moms at the playground, schedule a play date (for your child & yourself) or find support online.

Do Something You Love. Life is busy. Sometimes we get so caught up in our to do lists of things we think we need to do everyday that we have no time left over for ourselves. When you’re having a really bad day, that’s when you need to do something just for you. A hobby…remember those? Activities that you love and enjoy that make you happy. Whether it’s playing a sport, scrapbooking, cooking, reading or knitting, if all else fails, taking part in an activity that you love helps you get back to yourself. When you can’t shake that negative feeling you’re having all day, make the time for a hobby even if it means taking something off your to do list. You’ll be so much better off in the long run!
Stay positive & Have a wonderful day!
