- Lighting your favourite candle. Okay so lighting that Diptyque candle is literally like burning money, but sometimes you have to do it.
- Adult colouring books. You're never too old. I love this one, the designs are beautiful and intricate, and taking fifteen minutes out to concentrate on this can really help.
- Drinking a giant cup of your favourite tea. Tea helps everything.
- Getting some Headspace. Download the Headspace app to your iPhone and take ten minutes out to just clear your mind.
- Making your favourite meal. Or favourite snack. Or hell, just eating your feelings, it's allowed sometimes.
- FaceTiming family. Nothing like a pep talk from a take no prisoners mum to perk you up.
- Getting engaged on Twitter. Sometimes if I'm having a down moment, I'll scroll through my feed and reply to a load of tweets. Just get talking to people.
- Have some pamper time. A bubble bath or a hot shower, a fresh manicure or a face mask. Just take some time for you.
- Exercise. Whether that means pulling on your trainers for a run around the block, or pulling up a Blogilates video. Get the blood pumping.
- Going back to bed. Sometimes, you just need a good old fashioned nap. Preferably accompanied by teddy bears/kittens/Ryan Gosling.
I definitely needed this post today. Got my favourite Yankee burning and off to make the worlds biggest & sugariest cup of tea x
