Shake It Off

I feel like I have been stuck in a bit of a glum mood the last few days. Not good, not good at all! 

There is nothing worse than being in a bad and or sad mood, I can't stand it myself because I hate feeling down and I especially hate when I inevitably take my feelings out on unsuspecting bystanders eg. poor T!

Time to retreat to my standard mood-busting activities I think!

Spend more time with my boyfriend:-

Mushiness alert! T is so suuuuuuper cute and shares an incredibly bizarre sense of humour, he never fails to make me laugh. He is also really good at bringing me back down to earth and helping me realise that some things really aren't a big deal, and instead of whinging, do something about it!

Boxing:

 This ALWAYS work for me. I don't visualise punching peoples faces or anything, but just hitting something as hard as you can for an extended period of time is amazing. Always works, whether you've had a bad day at work or your everyone is just being a JERK!

Hot Bath:

 Get that bath tub nice and full and jump on in. Add something that smells nice, light a candle, put some music on. RELAX.

Sleep: 

When shit gets too real or you can't shake your mood, sleep on it. Call it quits early ( no playing on your iPhone for hours in bed either) and just sleep. Chances are you'll feel better when you wake up, even if you don't at least you had a good solid 8 hours of unconsciousness.

What do you do to shake off a bad mood? Please share your wisdom with me !

  1. Definitely agree with Sleep - I find this is my best cure all when I am in a mood (I have been known on occasion to head to bed stupidly early when a bad mood strikes).

    Cooking also works for me, focusing on something so intently as preparing food (and also knowing yummy treats are imminent) helps me out of a funk.

  2. Things that help me are sleeping, cooking, boxing, reading and writing my rants down (isntead of annoying other people) :)

    Hope you feel better soon!

  3. Oh I love all these things for taking the stress off, especially sleep! For me it's routine - exercise, healthy meals, getting outdoors with my trusty ipod (beach etc), herbal tea. Hope you feel better! xx
