Take 5

What can you do in just 5 minutes a day?

• Write down 5 things that you’re grateful for.
• Before bed, prioritize your to-do list for the next day (clear it from your mind).
• Do some deep breathing.
• Send a note, card, or email to a friend; let them know they’re important to you.
• Write down your worries and throw them away.
• Stretch!
• Pet your dog or cat…JUST pet them; don’t do anything else.
• Close your eyes and just be still!
• Call or text somebody and tell them you’re thinking of them.
• Check your calendar.
• Bookmark a feel-good website and spend 5 minutes there.
• Write down 10 things that you’re good at.
• Practice visualization/imagery; picture yourself somewhere relaxing.

Anybody have anything else that works well?

I'm just an ordinary woman getting through life. I think most of us are doing the same--doing the best we can every day and hoping it's enough. By sharing our stories, our thoughts, and common experiences, I'm hoping it will make it all just a little bit easier to BE. View all posts by Deb's Theory
