Thought of the day: If you spend time with people who are negative and complain and gossip it’s much harder to break out of a pattern of negativity in your life. Limit your time with complainers and seek out friendship and collaboration with people who are interested in living a happy life. Seeking the company of positive-minded people has helped me be more positive. Not only is a positive attitude contagious, people who make a choice to think happy remind me I have a choice to think happy, too.When under stress it’s important to consciously care for your basic needs and well being. Get enough sleep, eat when you’re hungry, take a walk, ask for a hug. Be kind to yourself. My daily self-care routines have taught me how important it is to take care of myself. When I’m well-rested, hydrated and eating well, I am better able to deal with stressful situations and I’m far less likely to turn to negative patterns in times of stress. Love yourself enough to let go of the struggle over something that is out of your hands.
