Know that healing isn’t linear.
Understand that you are not always going to feel great about yourself and about your life.
Understand that this is normal.

Read an old favorite book.
Make yourself a hot cup of tea and read a book you havent read in years.
Let your emotions get swept away in another story and another world.
Let yourself get lost in someone elses life for once.

Catch up with a friend you havent seen in awhile.
Grab lunch with a childhood best friend or a college roommate you havent seen in ages.
Talk about your life and listen to them talk about theirs.
Laugh, cry, and giggle at old memories that you completely forgot about.
Take a moment just to breathe.
Just to focus on your inhales and exhales.
Take a moment just to be.
Just to relax and center yourself.
Take a mental health day.
Treat yourself and give yourself some much needed self love.
Take yourself out on a date, get a haircut, do whatever makes your heart happy.
Go for a walk.
Whatever you are going through, a walk will do wonders on your body emotionally and physically.
Write out everything you are grateful for.
Write everything out that makes you happy in your life.
Sit down by yourself, with yourself.
Put your laptop down and slow down.
Allow yourself to not get caught up in social media, in the news, and in other distractions.
Let yourself take a break.
Forgive yourself for feeling sad or down.
Forgive yourself for however you are feeling about past mistakes and people from your past.
Forgive yourself for what you shouldve done but didnt.
Let yourself off the hook.
Know that healing isnt linear.
Understand that you are not always going to feel great about yourself and about your life.
Understand that this is normal.
Its okay to not be okay.
