That always lifts my mood. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-recover-if-your-day-starts-off-badly#post-2103714 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:55:23 +0000 Greentea 2103714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Remembering I can't control circumstance, only my mind. So I do something to relieve the stress and put me back in the moment, clear my head. Walks, getting out, letting go mentally... just knowing that if I can get in a better space mentally the challenges won't seem as big helps me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-recover-if-your-day-starts-off-badly#post-2103697 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:49:47 +0000 LuLu Mom 2103697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually treat myself to a smoothie in the morning or a breakfast sandwich and I put on my high school music playlist, it always takes me to a happy place. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-recover-if-your-day-starts-off-badly#post-2103689 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:45:31 +0000 808love 2103689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@aegie: I like that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-recover-if-your-day-starts-off-badly#post-2103685 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:44:35 +0000 aegie 2103685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>you do something nice for someone. Like if I'm having a super craptastic day and a bad commute, I'll give money to the first homeless person I see. Or I'll open the door for everyone to go in before me. It reminds me that being in a bad mood is MY choice. It usually works. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-recover-if-your-day-starts-off-badly#post-2103679 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:40:33 +0000 808love 2103679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pray </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-recover-if-your-day-starts-off-badly#post-2103678 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:40:00 +0000 Bao 2103678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Positive thinking and a yummy treat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-recover-if-your-day-starts-off-badly#post-2103672 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:37:09 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2103672@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am trying to get away from emotional eating. But that used to be my go-to. </p> <p>Music really does help me. Or sometimes a quick chat with my mom or someone I can kinda vent to. Once I get it out. I've even written an email to my self, kinda like as a journal, just to get it out and off my chest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-recover-if-your-day-starts-off-badly#post-2103656 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:24:52 +0000 lovehoneybee 2103656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a big believer in positive thinking, so I'll tell myself "this is the worst thing that's going to happen to me today, and my day is going to be better". (Like Monday morning, after E woke up in a tantrum, my hair dryer died and I slammed my finger in my car door).</p> <p>Then I listen to upbeat music loudly in the car :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-recover-if-your-day-starts-off-badly#post-2103649 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:21:33 +0000 mrbee 2103649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had an awful start to the day. Usually I compensate by treating myself to something I don't usually eat, and then I make sure to listen to some upbeat music. Or I'll take a walk and try to get some fresh air and mentally restart the day. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.</p> <p>Could use some more strategies on this front! How do you recover if your day starts off badly? </p>
