How To Make Your Day Better and Brighter

You know those days when things aren’t going your way? Maybe your late to school, to work, your coffee wasn’t good, or maybe the weather isn’t very pretty? Here are some ways to help you make your day brighter and better!

Retail therapy is always the best kind of therapy. Clothes, shoes, accessories always make a girl feel good and beautiful. Don’t feel guilty. If you’re having a bad day and you need a new look its okay to do a mini-splurge on yourself. If you can’t hit the mall or the boutiques, I like to online shop or online browse. Going to your favorite stores websites can be fun, I like to create wish lists or pull pictures from the stores and save them and create a “Wish List Look Book”.

What to do when you don’t feel like splurging or surfing the web? Pick flowers and create a beautiful arrangement. Creating beautiful things is a good feeling to have and beautiful things can make you smile. The best part about flower arrangements at home is everything is for free: the flowers, the water, if you already have a flower vase. Flowers also brighten up a room which can help brighten your day.

Treat yourself to a delicious treat. Lately I’ve been having so much fun in the kitchen baking decadent cupcakes. It doesn’t take too long to mix and stir your batter and baking them only takes 20 to 25 minutes. Before you know it you can make your day delicious with a happy treat. If you don’t want to feel guilty about your treat I like to look up vegan recipes on the internet, you’d be surprised how many yummy desserts you can make organic and vegan.

Beauty YOU days or evenings are also a good way to relax from stress and get away from a bad day. Go out and get your nails and toes done! However, I don’t enjoy going to the nail salon (only for special occasions). I enjoy doing my own nails; it makes time go by faster for me. Bubble baths or relaxing baths with your favorite bath salts are always a good way to unwind from a long rough day. After your calming bath give yourself a facial or do an olive oil hair mask. Beauty nights are always fun and relaxing and give you a happy feeling.

So turn your frown upside down. Sometimes on those bad days you just need to do something for yourself. 

Good Luck
