We all need uplifting at times and our uplifting quotes will help you to refocus and stay grateful for what each of us have.
Share with a friend or loved one when they need a little extra boost. We can all help spread some good vibes and positivity around!
Here are 10 strategies to help you get through stressful situations
- Focus on only what you can control. Since there are things that are out of our control, let them play out on their own. Worry is wasted energy (that you will need!)
- Remain objective- Don’t get swept up in the emotion
- Turn off the news or remove yourself from anything that is adding to your stress
- Remind yourself not to make decisions based on fear.
- Find a way to be near sunshine or abundant light.
- Do something nice for someone. A kind note, a small gift, a compliment or a smile.
- Spend 5 minutes meditating.
- Play some of your favorite upbeat music or create a new uplifting playlist.
- Get some fresh air and go for a walk.
- Make a list of things that you are grateful for, then re read that list daily.
