Change up your routine

Sometimes life can start to feel repetitive which tends to make us feel stagnant and like we are stuck in a rut. We have the ability though, to take our regular routine and shake it up a bit and this helps to renew our energy and good mood. Little changes in your day can lead to big changes in your life and it's up to you to find new outlets and experiences. These can be as small as taking a different route to work or stopping to eat breakfast out on your way there instead of eating at home. You may want to wear new accessories or change your hairstyle so that you start to feel a bit different about yourself. There are also several activities each weekend in most communities and you can find out about these in your local newspaper. Many are within a reasonable driving distance and even though you may not have thought of trying new activities, you will likely find yourself enjoying the break from your regular schedule and that will start to refresh your mood and attitude. You can go to a local fair, food tasting event, music concert or even blueberry picking, to create a little physical and mental vacation from your same old agenda. Just like an out of town vactation renews your spirit, trying new things can soothe your soul while you are at home. Everyone gets restless from time to time but get to know your community and find out what new restaurant or show is in your town and try it out with your family and friends. It's up to you to keep life interesting and whenever you feel stuck, jump online or grab a newspaper and find out what you can do in your own area to keep life exciting. Shake up your energy inside and out!
