Hey dudes! I'm excited to go over my 3 steps to boost your mood. With the weather changing, and the days getting shorter, I find it takes a little more effort on my part to beat the winter blues. When I prioritize my mood and include these 3 steps in my Top 10 goals in my Daily Grind Planner or as a daily habit in my Habit Tracker, it makes ALL the difference! Any time you are feeling down, or just need a boost in motivation, work your way through this list and watch your day get a little brighter!

Sometimes when you feel like you're in a bad mood spiral, you just need to gain a little momentum. You can do this by checking a few super simple things off your to do list! You'll feel accomplished, motivated, and loved. No matter WHAT, check these items off your list:

A) Wash your face and do a super simple skin care routine. Don't overwhelm yourself with a 12 step routine... just enough to make you feel good!

B) Make your bed. This may seem random and so small, but I promise you it makes your whole life feel "put together".

C) Take three deep breaths. Sometimes, you just need to take a minute and get out of your own head!

Now that you've gained some momentum with your 3 essentials, you'r going to turn that momentum into full blown motivation! Start taking some ACTION to really turn your mood around by diving into this motivation check list:

A) Clean one space (big or small!).

B) Make some tea or your favorite cozy beverage.

C) Light a candle.

D) Have a relaxing bath.

E) Sit down for 5 solid minutes and brain dump everything you're grateful for!

F) Take a break from social media. (I suggest AT LEAST 3 hours).
