And I also like to go for a walk, even if it's just around the city. Breathing fresh air and observing people is like a small ritual. Sometimes a small trip helps, even for a day somewhere out of town. A change of scenery is very inspiring and gives new impressions.
Sometimes I just take a notebook and write down all my thoughts. This helps to organize everything and get rid of unnecessary things.
Or I cook something delicious - especially something sweet.
When the house smells of baking, my mood improves. And calling friends also helps - just talking about life.
A smile and support on the other end of the phone are what always charge me up.
The main thing is to find small joys in simple things.
