List 15 Things You Do To Lift Your Spirits
|
List 15 Things You Do To Lift Your Spirits Most of us get depressed once in a while. This is only natural. I was talking with a friend early this morning and he told me to do something to lift my spirits. So, I got to thinking about what he said. What are some of the things I can do (or have done) to lift my spirits? I challenged myself to make a list of 15. I am asking you to list 15 things you do (or can do) to lift YOUR spirits. Your list might have some of the same things as mine, might be totally different. But, we might be able to help ourselves and others by making, reading and sharing our lists. I am looking forward to seeing your lists! Mine is in the post below.  |

A great n wise choice, my friend! It's fight, minute by minute, to choose happiness over sadness! Fight for what you desire most, fight hard! Never give up!  It all starts in your mind! Use it for good!

I have a lot to learn. But, I am learning! Thanks for being my friend - you have given me so much to think about. It all starts in your mind! Use it for good! Romance her heart, tease her body, enjoy the company shared in bed n out! Treasure every moment spent together, in good times n bad! Cum visit my blog, you're always welcum! submokey Become a watcher! THINK PINK!

This morning I said I would take inventory at the end of the day to see what I did that was on my list to help lift my spirits. I had a good day today! I had fun. I smiled, I got about six hours of sleep (good for me). I talked to a good friend on the phone (used a lifeline, lol). I listened to some great music (the very sexy Luther Vandross). I met a friend for dinner. I got a pedicure. I did some deep breathing exercises. I did some isometrics. I helped a friend. I read and responded to blogs and responses to my blog. All in all it was a great day! I kept busy and spent time outside in the sunshine (need that - my skin is so pale I probably glow in the dark). Lol. And.... I laughed.

whatsamattau, Thank you for sharing your list. I love number 9: "Imagine I am on the bridge of the Starship Enterprise". Love that show and have often thought what being in outer space and travelling like that would feel like.

Wear my favorite color (dark purple) 8. Take time to just BREATHE when stressed or nervous 9. Read inspirational or spiritual quotations 10. Make a word cloud (one of my new favorite things to do) 11. Do something creative 12. Get outside in the sunshine 13. Listen to music 14. Do something nice for myself (pedicure, manicure, massage, etc.) 15. Do something nice for someone else 16. Make an effort to do something I have been putting off (I always feel so much better when done) 17. Give myself a break, permission to do what I want 18. Use a lifeline (call a friend for lunch, dinner, etc.) 19. Meeditate 20. Give myself permission to cry and then get over it. Wow, I listed 20. It wasn't difficult once I started.
