Day 25: Make a ‘to-do’ list and check things off.

I LOVE a list and it really does wonders for my stress levels when I can see things being ticked off throughout my day.
Plus, if you leave your list on the fridge other people might do a job for you!

@NFaccini Oh no! I hope you’re ok Natasha, that all sounds hugely stressful. Completely unacceptable behaviour from the builders - hope you get that sorted ASAP. Sending lots of love and positive thoughts your way. If anyone can do this, you can! ❤️ xx

Day 22: Keep a diary for a week, writing one good thing from each day.

You will soon learn to appreciate all the good things in your life, often the things we take for granted.

Day 21: Recognising your achievements and being proud of yourself.

So many of us don’t recognise our achievements or successes. I’m a nightmare for it, but we should be embracing who we are and what we have done.

Be kinder to yourself.

@DaddyandDadBlog @twinklresources Oh my word, that’s amazing! Well done! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Day 20: Put your phone down today as much as possible!

We are on our phones now more than ever and it’s not good for us. Try putting your phone down today and see if you feel any better for it.

Day 19: Write a list of 10 things you are grateful for.

Think of all the little things that you take for granted, these are the thing we should appreciate.

Do you have a roof over your head?
Can you put food on the table?

Day 17: Put fresh bed sheets on today.

I love climbing in to bed with clean pjs on and the smell of fresh bed sheets. I honestly think I sleep better.

Day 15: YOU ARE ENOUGH

Self care is so important. Lockdown puts all sorts of new pressures on us, especially now we have our children with us 24/7.

Know that what you are doing is enough. Be kind to yourself.
