Im not really sure how to start this post. I guess I'll start by saying I often get asked how I stay happy, how I stay positive and how I keep going. Truth is, I don't. Im only human and although it might look like my day is going splendidly well, sometimes I just want to cry and hide. I am only human..
So now that you know that I'm not always happy and sometimes I want to kill someone, maybe numerous people lol, I do have some tips that help me feel happier. Happiness for me is very much a long journey that takes time and dedication. We unfortunately live in a world where being happy can be somewhat hard. There are many factors behind someones unhappiness, including mine but I hope today you can take something away from how I have become happier.
Lead a healthy lifestyle.
For me, food and exercise affects my overall health and happiness. If I eat good, I feel good.. And I think that goes for most people. Leading an active and healthy lifestyle will make you feel happier. Yup, its effort to begin with but when you get that happy feeling, it will spur you on to continue. Its not about losing weight or trying to get into a smaller pair of jeans, its about looking after your body from the inside out.
Learn how to de-stress.
Everyone needs coping mechanisms and ways to de-stress and unwind. If its reading a good book, running a few laps, singing, meditating, yoga or simply watching Youtube videos with a face mask on, learn how to let go of that stress. I personally like a glass of milk with some sort of biscuit or chocolate bar & The Big Bang Theory. Other times I watch Youtube videos or I meditate. Its important to know and listen to what your mind and body needs. Make time for it!
Talk about your problems.
If you're unhappy or you're not okay, don't keep it to yourself. Misery enjoys company so you'll just feel even worse about yourself or the situation. Speak up and open up. Even if you can't physically talk to someone, send a text or write your feelings down to show someone later. Our minds often get congested with unhappy and negative thoughts. Get them out girl!
Stop being so hard on yourself.
This little tip resonates with me as its the one I find most difficult. You're not perfect and you never will be so stop picking at every little imperfection. If you f**k up, apologise and move on. Don't dwell on things that won't matter in a few years time. Haven't been to the gym in a month? Its not the end of the world. Pick yourself up and get back into it. Stop being so hard on yourself, you're doing just fine.
Do things that make you feel happy.
If it makes you happy, do it. If it make you unhappy, don't. Don't over complicate this, question and ask why. No buts or what ifs. Just do it. Do things that make you happy and you'll feel happier. Tomorrow isn't promised.
Find what inspires you/reassures you.
We all need to feel inspired and reassured. If I'm sad or anxious and generally unhappy, I read quotes or listen to songs. I feel reassured when reading or hearing words that make me see things differently. Watching uplifting talks on Youtube also makes me feel better. The journey of happiness is a personal one so find what makes you feel better and turn to it. Your puppy, your mum & even reading a blog. It doesn't matter how weird or sad you think it is, do it!!!!
Thats all for today folks. x
Thanks for the tips. The way the world is now you tend to forget to just live and be happy.

ReplyDeleteMy life became devastated when my husband sent me packing, after 8 years that we have been together. I was lost and helpless after trying so many ways to make my husband take me back. One day at work, i was absent minded not knowing that my boss was calling me, so he sat and asked me what its was all about i told him and he smiled and said that it was not a problem. I never understand what he meant by it wasn't a problem getting my husband back, he said he used a spell to get his wife back when she left him for another man and now they are together till date and at first i was shocked hearing such thing from my boss. He gave me an email address of the great spell caster who helped him get his wife back, i never believed this would work but i had no choice that to get in contact with the spell caster which i did, and he requested for my information and that of my husband to enable him cast the spell and i sent him the details, but after two days, my mom called me that my husband came pleading that he wants me back, i never believed it because it was just like a dream and i had to rush down to my mothers place and to my greatest surprise, my husband was kneeling before me pleading for forgiveness that he wants me and the kid back home, then i gave Happy a call regarding sudden change of my husband and he made it clear to me that my husband will love me till the end of the world, that he will never leave my sight. Now me and my husband is back together again and has started doing pleasant things he hasn't done before, he makes me happy and do what he is suppose to do as a man without nagging. Please if you need help of any kind, kindly contact Happy for help and you can reach him via email: happylovespell2@gmail.com

UNBELIEVABLE BUT TRUE!!!!!!!!! “My husband told me all of a sudden one day he didn’t know if he wanted to be married or single,and after some weeks he sent me out of the house and We were separated for a few years. I thought we had a wonderful marriage. I was devastated, but I chose to press on and stand.
ReplyDeleteI had to go into research on how i could possibly win my husband heart again, and while on my search on the internet i then came across some testimonies how Dr Alex has been able to restore marriages after break up, Dr Alex is a true spell doctor who uses his love spell enchantment to help women like us who marriages sometimes get off control.
I contacted Dr Alex and i told him about my predicament he gave me a response and told me not to worry that he was going to make my husband come back to me,if only i have the faith and believe in his work!
After sometime with Dr Alex on the email he then after requested for some information of me and my husband which i did sent to him and he told me about the required items in order for him to make my man come back to me ASAP, i had know option as i was totally devastated, i had to give him all he wanted and after that he told me to watch out,that after 3 to 4 hours my husband is going to contact me and start to ask me for forgiveness, I smiled when he said that to me, my thought and hope were really high and if i ever wanted anything, that was for my husband to come back to me.
Dr Alex you are indeed amazing and your spell enchantment is forever active,I don’t think I could ever put into words just how great Dr Alex is nor what all He has done in these past couple of months towards the restoration of my marriage.
Everything he said to me did really came to pass and my husband is back to me after many months of tears, I’m so grateful for all the encouragement from Dr Alex.
After requesting for your service you did a marvelous job for me and i can never stop sharing you good works to other women around the globe.
Dr Alex is truly a restorer,If there be anyone who is currently undergoing hardship and difficulties in their marriage or relationship i urge you to stay strong and contact Dr Alex for quick restoration and happiness.
