The world can be a stressful place and small gestures of kindness can really go a long way. Some ideas I came up with are music like classical, soft jazz, and easy listening. Go to a quiet place, sit quietly, and turn the music on resting on a lounge chair by the fireplace with a blanket to keep warm.

Call a friend and enjoy a glass of wine. We even came up with a game night. Get rid of clutter, doing the dishes daily for instance. Change the subject when you want to avoid an argument. Read a good book with a cup of Camomile tea.

Go for a walk with your dog and get some fresh air. It’s not good to stay inside all day. Exercise helps with stress. Get a good night’s sleep and wake up refreshed.

Don’t forget to smile at people while on your walk and say a kind word to someone like Thank You.
