Nevertheless, we have that day in our calendars. And because we are wise, we can prepare for it. And because we have prepared some ‘remedies’ we can use them whenever, right?

 

I have prepared some of them for you and you can follow your imagination and prepare some more… and share them with us.

Look on the bright side – practice gratitude.

Physical activity alone or with someone – walk, take a yoga class or dance around your room or something else that you enjoy.

Set a realistic resolution – reduce your goal into baby steps.

Pamper your dog to additional walk – warm cloths for the both of you advised.

Get creative – your imagination will support you and your mood.

Share your ‘remedies’ with others – it will make you feel energised.

Eat well – it will boost your energy levels and your mood.

Laugh – it shifts your state to happiness.

Reframe Blue Monday to Brew Monday as Samaritans do.

Enjoy natural light as often as you can.

Start new uplifting playlist – listen to something that has inspirational lyrics or beats.

Change your environment – geographic distance also works, sometimes it’s enough to stand on a chair and look at the problem from above, and sometimes you have to leave the problem at home and travel a few or more miles.

Pay it forward – Random acts of kindness as beneficial to you and the other person.

Boost yourself with your own love and attention.

Spend time with others – socialising with others can lift your spirits and increase the release of oxytocin in your body.

Plan something to look forward to – there’s always tomorrow.

 

If you have your own ways of dealing with Blue Monday, share them with us in the comment section.

I wish you and myself the Blue Monday as colourful as it can be 😀
