I’m trying to do more and more of that law of attraction, trying to basically attract more positivity into my life and just be an overall more positive person. I know that isn’t always easy and trust me I totally get that, take that from someone who has been in a really rough spot for the last few weeks, I’m finally getting out of that space and into a happier place. I’m definitely working on creating a healthier environment for myself, mind, body and soul, but what are the habits that are helping me and could they help you?
1. Yoga
I’ve been doing yoga for years, it has been one of those important things for my own thoughts and feelings. Especially during some of the most difficult times with my mental health, having quiet moments to just breathe, chill out and flow through some yoga poses. You don’t have to even do anything difficult a few sun salutations, just to stretch out your body, it is just so soothing. Lately I’ve been doing Jillian Michaels Yoga Inferno mainly because I love a good challenge but there are some really easy and soothing routines on YouTube for you to do!
2. Going out more
To be honest I have been making the most of the good weather, and trying to appreciate it while it lasts because let’s be honest with the Great British weather you can guarantee that it doesn’t last long! It gives you some time away and not only that the fresh air does me the world of good, it gives me a refresh and not only that if I’m trying to work on my blog, then by going out it helps me to give me the motivation that I need to put my thoughts into the words I can write down for my blog.
3. Avoiding my phone at certain times
Now this one has been really hard. Getting the urge to just reach for my phone during the evening or if I wake up at night, that has been the hardest one, but I’ve worked so hard on it, making sure that I don’t reach for my phone and I just focus on being chilled out. My phone isn’t my top priority, we all need a break away even if it is just for a few hours before bed. That has helped me sleep much better lately, and to be quite honest I needed it so badly lately.
4. Listening to my body more
I’m the kind of person that will push my body to the absolute limit. It doesn’t matter what I am doing, I will push my body, but lately I’ve been listening to my body, mainly because I’ve had to but it has taught me that I really do need to listen to my body more. Whether it is saying no to certain things or it is taking a small break from workouts, whatever my body is telling me, I listen. I think that has been helped through the yoga because you learn to listen to your body so much more and it really does help!
What positive habits have helped you lately? Let me know in the comments!

Yesss I love the law of attraction and I’ve been focusing so much on manifestation lately! xxx
It really is helping, I’ve noticed such a difference! xxxx
I’ve been listening to my body a lot lately and have taken it easy for the past few weeks. I was so sleep deprived and had crippling migraines that left me unable to move that I really had to reevaluate what I was doing and just say fuck it and blow stuff off. Luckily I didn’t have any deadlines for projects so I was able to take that time I needed. On the mend and glad to be back to blogging again though. Great post! It’s important to take care of yourself 💗

I love working out, it definitely gets me into a different headspace! xxxx
Really love this post. I’ve been doing yoga for a while now, but it’s never helped much with positivity/mental health. It’s totally worth it for all the other benefits though. I definitely should follow in your footsteps and start reducing my phone use…

It’s amazing isn’t it?! Yoga is so easy to do too! xxxx

Thank you so much for the nicest comment ever! Yoga just makes me feel so much better about everything! xxxxx
Good tips. Am still to try yoga but I defo need to learn to put the phone down… too attached to it.
Yoga is so fab and so calming, and you can do this my lovely! xxxxx
I totally need to be putting the phone down and reaching for a book more often, but it’s much easier said than done. I’ve been thinking f starting yoga for so long now, I just have no idea how to start!

Yoga is my favourite and I find it so soothing. I’ve been trying to put my phone away so I can focus on other things! xxxx
I have to admit I am terrible at sticking to healthy habits — I stop and start yoga all the time! need to really set a schedule so I make it routine 🙂

Even just a few moments in the morning doing some sun salutations, that really helps me start my day! xxxx
I really want to get back into yoga again. I used to love it years ago and do it pretty much daily but when I moved to uni I didn’t really have the space in my room to keep it up and now I’m so out of habit it’s crazy.

I’m the same my darling, I just try to do some sun salutations every morning for a quick routine! xxxx
I keep saying how I’ll get back into yoga and I’ve not, this is giving me that nudge to do it.

You’ve got this my lovely, get the yoga matt out and do a little yoga session! xxxx
Avoiding your phone and social media is SO important! For me, it’s YouTube videos! Currently have them playing in the background…. lol great post, Amie!
Oooh I have been watching YouTube again lately and it’s so addictive! xxxx
I feel so much better when I have a few consistent yoga sessions per week
Consistent yoga sessions make me feel a lot calmer! xxxx
I’ve never done yoga, is it good? I might try it. Turning off all my social notifications has definitely made a difference, as I look at them when I want to, not when I have a new reply/retweet/message.

It is so good, it helps to clear my head and soothe my soul in so many ways! xxxx
Time away from our phones and social media is so important I find! x
It really is! Even though it can be so hard it is so worth it! xxxx
All great tips, I love to listen to my body as well! Being without a phone improves mindfulness drastically when you need calm & focus❤️
I totally agree, it’s so important to be without your phone sometimes, just be in your own space and to just chill!xxxx
It’s like reading my list at the moment! I’m all over trying to be positive but seem to have myself in a little bit of a dip at the moment. I’m doing all these things and I am back writing in my gratitude journal – it helps me just be aware of good things!
Thank you for sharing.

A gratitude journal just puts everything into perspective for me, it really helps! xxxx
