Treat yourself with care. Get plenty of rest. Tempt yourself with healthy, delicious foods. Wear your warm fleecy pajamas. Indulge and comfort yourself.
Write a list of 50 things that are good and worthwhile about you. Once you've completed the list, add one more thing to it every day.
Change up your weekend routine. Plan new adventures with your friends. Join a book club or take a cooking class. Go to concerts or films you wouldn't normally see.
Redecorate. Bring some bright, bold colors into your life. Rearrange the furniture and put new pictures on the walls.
Volunteer. There is an increasing body of evidence that suggests we all feel happier and more fulfilled if we help other people. Altruism is one of the best ways to boost your mood.
Exercise is the healthy way to let off steam and de-stress. Increased physical activity releases endorphins, which are chemicals in your brain that lift mood. If you can't face the gym, try walking, yoga, or dancing.
So if you see me out dancing like this, don't be afraid. I haven't lost my mind. I'm just shakin' out whatever ails me at the moment...or preventing any stressful holiday breakdowns that are easily prevented, by dancing, of course.
