Bad moods suck. Not just for you, but for everyone around you, too. Getting in a funk is one sure way to put a damper on your day.
So how do you shake off a bad mood?
Easy! Just try out one of these simple ideas to go from funky to fabulous:
1. Get dressed. That’s right. If you’re grumping around in your bathrobe, get up, take a shower, and put on some nice clothes. Studies show that your mood has a lot to do with your self-image. By getting dressed and doing what it takes to make yourself look good on the outside, you feel better on the inside. When you feel better on the inside, your mood changes significantly and you’re ready to face the day.
2. Get moving. Exercise releases hormones that help alter your mood. It doesn’t really matter what you do, just get up and get moving. Getting up and doing something, whether it’s exercising or even walking over to the nearest coffee shop, can give you a big mood boost.
3. Meditate. Focusing your mind along with deep breathing exercises can break you out of any sour mood. Remember back in grade school when you were taught to take deep breaths and count to 10 when you got angry? It was actually for a very good reason. By focusing and breathing slowly, our bodies tend to respond in a positive way by relaxing and releasing tension.
4. Hang out with friends. What are friends for? They put things into perspective and provide a diversion from what’s bothering us.
5. Laugh. There’s no possible way that you can laugh and stay in a bad mood. It’s proven that your emotions follow your actions. So next time you’re in a bad mood, try watching a sitcom or tuning into a comedy channel.
6. Treat yourself. Do something just for you. Now, I don’t advocate retail therapy or fridge therapy. The key is to pamper yourself a little by doing something you don’t normally do. But make sure it’s a healthy treat, like a massage or spa treatment.
Don’t wait for a funky day to try some of these tips. Add several of these feel-good actions to every day, and you’ll soon discover lasting happiness. People may even start calling you perky!
