I try to find happiness in the little things, such as seeing a cute dog or seeing a child smile at you, or making the perfect cup of tea. All those little things definitely add up and help to increase my mood.

Something I've seen people talk about is having a happy journal, where you write down all the things that make you happy, so that you can look back on them when you're sad. I love this idea, and I might try it out!

In 2013 I had a jar in which I put all the funny/good memories, all the little trinkets I wanted to keep. Whenever I look through it it brings back many happy memories from that year.

I try really hard not to listen to sad music when I don't feel that happy, as it just makes me feel worse. I find that the best music to make me happy is some good old 80s, or some Disney tunes!

Pamper yourself! Have a nice relaxing bath, make yourself some hot chocolate, do whatever you usually do to chill out and wind down. I find having a good old pamper sesh and painting my nails helps to cheer me up.

Try to be optimistic & positive! I'm so bad for being negative and pessimistic, but having a positive outlook really does make a difference! I try to wake up every morning and think "today is going to be a good day" and every day I say that, I find it comes true. If I believe I'll have a good day, then I'll have a decent day.

Treat yourself! Eat whatever will cheer you up, or buy yourself a little treat every once in a while. It'll cheer you up for sure :D

Surround yourself with positive people. Seriously. People who are moany & negative all the time will only make you feel bad yourself.

Something I've been doing recently is having a good old spring clean. It's really good once in a while to just grit your teeth and completely clean & organise everything. I've organised & cleaned everything in my kitchen cupboards, and I'm now in the process of cleaning my work space & room!
It feels so good sometimes to get everything organised, so that you're not tripping over things. I find it allows for so much more work to be done, and it just makes me have so much more of a positive outlook on life when I can see my bedroom floor!

Thats it! Those are some of the things I do when I don't feel so good. Sorry this was a pretty random post, I've been in a bit of a mood recently & thought this post would cheer me up. Hope you all have a lovely week.

Love,
