2. Stay Physically Active

It’s so important to stay physically active. You don’t need to be running marathons. In fact, just a little bit of a workout a day will do. Prepare for the day by planning something active. It can be as simple as taking a walk outside. As long as you get some exercise. 

I’ve started going to physical therapy twice a week and it’s been an amazing change. Your physical activity doesn’t have to be intense, but it’s good to have a daily routine for moving around. 

3. Get Fresh Air

Fresh air is one of the best things you can get throughout the day. Doing something as simple as doing some work or having a cup of coffee on a porch or balcony can be amazing. Take some time to take the kids to the park.

If you can get outside for a walk, it can help you to stay moving and active. It’s a great way to spend some time to think. It can also help you get that physical activity in. Being outside in the fresh air is an incredible feeling.

13. Compliment Yourself

It’s so valuable to remember to compliment yourself. We tend to make a habit of beating ourselves up over mistakes. This just isn’t helpful or necessary. Whenever a negative thought comes to mind, say one nice thing about yourself.
