But, seriously, September and beginning of October was a real downer for me. Life just kind of threw everything at me and I felt very uninspired but you know what? Accepting these feelings and knowing it's going to be fine really helped the blow and ride the wave!
So, here are 21 things you can do when you're in a funk to help you get through it, get back up and kick ass!
1. Acceptance. This is an important one, accepting how you're feeling and being okay with that, things will get better.
2. Write down how you feel - do some free hand writing discover what's making you unhappy
3. Listen to some happy tunes (Katy Perry always)
4. Compliment yourself. Give yourself a little affirmation "YOU ARE A STAR!"
5. Call a friend or family member someone you can just vent too, it helps to let someone know how you're feeling and talk it out
6. Remember how far you've come - I bet you have come a long way - GO YOU!

8. Take a nice long bath and put a face mask on - treat yo self gal!
9. Drink warm tea!
10. Cuddle up in bed and read a good book, play or even watch something you love on Netflix
11. Drink water - honestly, this one makes you feel super good!
12. If you're feeling overwhelmed create a to do list and tackle a task on the list that isn't too hard (e.g. tidy room or take out the trash. Start small!)
13. Take a walk in the fresh air
14. Go for a run and put on some kick ass tunes, music that makes you feel good

At the end of the day things will be confusing, doors will close you thought were meant for you and you'll have some down days but, I honestly believe everything happens for a reason it may not be clear now but you will look back on this moment in a few years time and be like wow, that was not meant for me! You'll be doing bigger and better things!
Chin up queens! Embrace it all and share the good vibes!
