It's easy to get stuck in the same routines and focus on the negative things. Posts be Bee and Lisa
always leave me feeling fuzzy inside and I wanted to try and share that feel-good factor myself. Why not try one of the following points or make up one of your own for a easy way of adding a little positivity to your life.

Send a postcard, everyone loves getting post.
Avoid social media for a day.
Build a fort with lots of blankets, get your favourite snacks and watch a DVD.
Sign a petition to help save the Royal Mail from privitisation.
Print some photos and create a collage in a pretty frame, don't just put them facebook.
Have a makeup-free day, it's great for your skin.
Listen to this song.
Arrange a picnic. Pack some Pimms, cucumber sandwiches and scones for a very British affair.
Have a good sort out, sell things on eBay and treat yourself to something new with the paypal money.
Visit your local library, discover a new author and make new friends by joining the reading group.
Laugh! Find out where your local comedy night is and go along for a good giggle.

Aww what a great post, I'm behind you with the postcards, I do love them!
ReplyDeleteWin a bumper beauty bundle including elf, Lush and Burt’s Bees
It's been shamefully long since I last went to the library :(
ReplyDeleteoh no, such a great way to save money too. The less you spend on books the more you can spend on shoes ;) Love browsing in the library, always find something new and exciting.
DeleteEbay is my favourite way to cheer myself up. After all Paypal isn't really money is it?! ;)

Great post Gem. I really want to build a fort and go for a picnic soon. x
ReplyDeleteI have an ebay store so I guess i'm always cheering myself up haha! But yeah love the thrill of selling stuff on there. I love that you mentioned getting away from social media, I try to do that most Saturday - doesn't always work out to be most of the day but a good chunk - it's nice just to have that down time and not feel the need to be constantly plugged in with the rest of the world.
ReplyDeleteI love this list, I really need to do more of this sort of stuff! I'm doing the fort + film thing tonight I think!x
ReplyDeletefort building is the best, I like watching Submarine in my forts x
DeleteGreat advice. I know I feel better when I avoid social media for a bit. I don't know what it is. I would love a break from the net full stop but I can't seem to break away from it :(
ReplyDeleteThe makeup free one is easy though as I'm a busy mum. The school run is done in shades and a headscarf haha!
Enjoyed this post, thanks!
