I have days like today where I think ‘what the hell is going on, why do I feel like this?!’ It’s easy to over analyse every emotion that comes up. But remember, just because you’re feeling down or lonely or sad or whatever, it doesn’t mean you’re going to get horrendously ill. Everyone has bad days! It’s perfectly ok to feel a bit shite now and again. Life is full of ups and downs. You’re going to be ok!

When I feel like this I turn to mindfulness. Meditation and turning your focus inwards will help you accept whatever is present right now. I already know why I’m feeling crappy, I had a bad nights sleep so I’m tired, I’m really busy at work and my best friends wedding is edging ever closer and I have no one to go with. See, I already feel better by just writing it…
