Last installment of "Take Our Positivity Challenge!" by Sabra Ciancanelli, editor of Guideposts magazine:

Be gentle on yourself.
Nurture your soft side. Invest in comfy sheets or awesome socks. Take a bath with mood-lifting scented oils or salts (peppermint, cinnamon, lemon, orange).

*

Be in the moment.
Sit and be still, take note of how you feel.
Let go of your worries about today and tomorrow. Picture each worry as a leaf or paper boat drifting away down a stream.

*

Take up a new hobby,
or rediscover one you used to love.

*
Forgive a wrongdoing.
Don't let bitterness drag you down.
Forgiveness reduces anxiety and gives you a greater send of hope.

*
Spread kindness.
Lifting someone's spirits lifts you up too.

*
End your day with gratitude.
Think of three blessings that grace your life now. Better yet, write them down so you can look back at them whenever you need a boast.
