Feeling stressed, lonely or just a little blue?

Hey guys,

I know that at this moment in my life I have felt stressed, lonely, a little blue and so much more! I though I would share with you some things I do to help me feel a little better.

The first is called a 'pick me up pot'

This is a really easy thing to make. Just 4 easy steps!











Step one:
Find a suitable container. I choose a cute glass bowel :)











Step two:
Cut some squares of paper, these you will write inspirational quotes and saying that will make you feel better.








Step three:
Fill the bowel with your quotes.

Step four:
When your feeling sad or just need a 'pick me up' then reach into the bowel and read a message!












My second tip is to surround your self with people who are going to lift your mood and encourage you to be happy! If you stay alone in your room your thought will over take you and make you feel worse! Keep your mind occupied!

If you don't want to be surrounded by loads of people find someone to talk to because you should never coop up emotions, I speak from experience when I tell you this.
A saying I really like is "if you hold a glass of water it won't appear to be heavy, the longer you hold that glass for the heavier it become and the more painful it becomes to hold the glass, finally your arm with collapse because the pain of holding onto the glass" this saying is a metaphor, it means if you hold onto your feeling then you may not feel the strain of it at first, but the longer you hold onto the though the more it will hurt you until finally you collapse under the pressure of the thought.

My final way of dealing with these feeling is to keep a journal of every day, this will help you keep tracking of your feelings and also at the end of the year you can see how much stronger you are and it will help motavate you alot :)

I hope this helps you as much as it helps me!

Love Life, Stay Strong and remember your simply beautiful
