Take a moment to write yourself a note of inspiration or motivation. Writing goals down and words of encouragement to oneself is powerful.

Here are the materials you may need: Poster Board Scissors Glue, tape, stick pins Images of all the wonderful things in life you want to be or see in your life. You can also use a dry erase board or sticky note pad sheets to write out your goals and dreams. Place the board or notes in an area that will be visible to you daily. Journaling is a easy way to unload your thoughts at the end of the day. Writing out how you really feel puts things in perspective. To thine own self... just be you, and yes true of course. Find Your Path Walk around your neighborhood, stroll in your own backyard, or even walk back and forth through the rooms in your home. This can reset your day right in the middle of it. Create a routine that gives you permission to clear your head. Walking is something that can keep you in shape and your mind sharp. As you walk, speak positive affirmations into your life and on behalf of the ones you love. Seeing what you say manifest is the benefit. Wrap It Up Fall and Winter weather are such amazing seasons to cover up with warm and fuzzy things. Even when the weather doesn't require warmth, there's nothing like wrapping yourself up in a cozy blanket. Some of my faves are oversized throw blankets, chunky cardigan sweaters, and fuzzy socks . Electric heated blankets provide additional coziness and helps ease muscle soreness. Oil Change From aromatherapy to skincare, essential oils can be a game changer. Place a diffuser in your favorite places in your home and add scented oils that bring calm to the atmosphere. Lavender is at the top of the list when it comes to that.

Place these oils and remedies in or on the navel to gain these benefits: neem oil - to treat acne and pimples coconut oil - increases fertility castor oil- assist in joint relief mustard oil - cures dry chapped lips, detox, Almond oil - promotes glowing face Sesame oil - helps to strengthen bones Alcohol dipped cotton ball on navel for pain relief Brandy soaked cotton ball for relief of cramping Find time,.. two minutes to take a deep breath, drink a glass of water, exercise or stretch for 5 minutes! These tips will definitely help lighten the load that comes from stress. Remember to always consult your healthcare provider when necessary. Prayer My life has been a journey guided by answered prayers. Prayer is a powerful weapon that wards off the type of negativity that causes stress based illnesses such as depression. Prayer is personal and requires vulnerability to your faith. God gave us prayer to communicate the things in life only He knows about and can fix.
