Meditation is a wonderful thing, as is sitting near a tree or water and just being in the moment. There is something so relaxing about being in nature and it does not cost a thing to do.
Develop some personal affirmations and repeat them every day in the morning and night for about a month.
I AM grateful for this day, I AM having a beautiful day. I will be inspired to make some changes today, this week, this month, etc.
Speak victory into your days on earth
Take deep breaths throughout day or better yet practice Box/Square Breathing
Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, exhale for 4 seconds and do this breathing 4x to 5x at a time.
Establish a bedtime regime that you can stick with for at least a month.
The body has an internal clock, it operates on a circadian rhythms, deviating too much from the norm adds stress to the body. Some get into a routine when it comes to going to bed and waking up.
Journal.
Can’t say it enough, but it is so important to write down your thoughts from the day and/or about your expectation for the next day, week and month and year. Be mindful of how you feel and let your pen or pencil do the talking via your fingers.
