It is hard to admit, but I have not been in the best headspace as of recently. Not being able to go out and do things that I enjoy such as shopping or visiting friends has really put a damper on my mood. Not to mention spending a lot of days alone as my husband has been out of town three times this month alone. I am sure there are many who are not comfortable with admitting that they are struggling during this time, but I am trying to be open and let you know that we are all human and unfortunately we are not perfect. Because I have been struggling to stay positive, I have discovered some thing throughout the last couple of months that do help boost my mood. I am happy to share the things that boost my mood in hopes that they will help your day get a little better as we get through these strange times.
AT HOME ICED LATTE
I look forward to my iced latte every morning and even when I finish my cup, I am looking forward to the next morning when I can indulge in another. Coffee is the only flavored drink I have throughout the day because I do not drink sugar filled drinks, so it is seriously a treat. If you are in need of a new milk to add to your coffee at home, try THIS ONE. It is my absolute favorite.
WATCHING OLD VIDEOS
Whenever I am in a low mood, I break out my phone and look at videos of Charlotte Lane or my animals. Watching these videos takes me down memory lane and instantly boosts my mood in seconds.
MAKEUP
I know that putting on makeup can kind of seem like a waste of product and time right now, but it really does the trick when it comes to turning my mood around. I guess when I feel pretty, I feel happier! You can shop all of my favorite beauty products for everyday makeup HERE.
GETTING DRESSED
I have always loved fashion, so not only does getting dressed fulfill my creative outlet, but it helps feel more put together. On days where I am super down, getting dressed and putting makeup on usually does the trick. Items I am loving currently, include these sandals, this sweatshirt, these shorts, this tee and this tee, this jacket, and this sweater!
LONG WALKS
I am so thankful that the weather here in Colorado has finally gotten about 50 degrees. Now that they days are nice and sunny, I love to go on long walks with Charlotte Lane. Not only am I releasing endorphins, but I am getting fresh air, enjoying nature, passing friendly people, and listening to my favorite music. Some of our must-haves for our walks include, Charlotte’s Tubby Todd Sunscreen, this handscreen with SPF 40, my Hydro Flask, this stroller fan, this stroller caddy, and this stroller.
