Each Friday, I usually choose one of your questions and do my best to offer guidance and support to help you along your journey.
But this Friday is different – I’m turning the tables and asking YOU for guidance! We all have so much to offer, and I know that we can get some great bits of wisdom if we each look within our soul and find the answer.
So here is the question:
When you’re feeling a bit down, how do you perk yourself up? What is your go-to remedy that always makes you feel better?
Do you watch a funny movie? Call a friend? Eat your favorite meal? Exercise? Journal? All of the above? 🙂
Please comment below – I’m sure we’ll all learn from each other and be able to use these tips the next time we need a positivity boost!
I can’t wait to read your wise words!
When I am really down I call my sister. We have a special connection so we can cry and laugh with each other. Just talking to her cheers me up. Some people are lucky enough to have a sister and others can have a best friend to talk to. If you don’t have someone then you need to find that special relationship.
I’m so glad you have such a close relationship with your sister, Linda. That’s wonderful. I think this is such great advice – thank you!
Sometimes a walk, sometimes a cup of herb tea or a glass of wine. Journaling is always nice. It seems to help.
Chocolate never hurts but the I just get mad at myself all over again.
Great advice! Chocolate is my go-to when I’m feeling a bit blue, too. 😉 Thanks for stopping by, Sher!
I try to understand why I am upset or down. Talking it through with my husband often helps. Once I understand why, then I can try to do something to cope with my problem, which will make me feel better right away.
Thanks, Connie! I like the idea of taking action, if possible, to make yourself feel better. Talking it through is always helpful, too. 🙂
Hi Jodi,
I guess the first thing I do is try to understand why I’m upset and then go from there. Usually I need to adjust my attitude and thinking. Taking a long soak in a hot bath helps me to center. Then I usually read something inspirational, trusting the Spirit to lead me to the passage. After this I usually feel better, and if not I seek out wise council from one of my close friends. I hope your weekend is going wonderful Jodi.
Love,
Leah
Great advice, Leah! And so insightful, which doesn’t surprise me at all. Thank you. ♥ to you.
