Gratitude
I know it sounds cheesy, but you are stuck with YOU for the rest of your life, so you might as well have a good relationship with yourself. Focusing on what you lack and letting negative thoughts soak your mind in poison juice, is definitely not the best move. Instead, list the things you love about yourself, your abilities, your health or something that you’re looking forward to doing. Aim for an attitude of gratitude all day long, but start with just a single, simple thought of gratitude to start each day.
Engage in joyful movement
Exercise definitely increases happy chemicals like endorphins, but you don’t have to hit the gym to lift weights for 2 hours. (If that is your joyful movement, by all means keep going!) But, if that is not your cup of tea, just know ANY activity where you are raising your heartbeat or breaking a sweat is considered physical activity!
