Getting daylight early in the day resets our circadian rhythm. So you can help yourself sleep well tonight from the moment you wake up! ☀️😴

Over 90% of the 100 billion humans who have ever lived are no longer alive. You have something they would all give anything for: Today

(h/t: James Clear)

Prioritise time outdoors and time with loved ones whenever possible

Mistakes are how we learn to do things better. And proof that we’re trying

Three simple but meaningful phrases we need more of in our world:
“I don’t know”
“I’m sorry”
“Thank you”

Life is happier when we feel part of something bigger than just ourselves

Reframe your day. Take something frustrating and find a way to see it as an opportunity

Remember how precious life is - and how much there is to be thankful for - even on the difficult days

When you open up and ask for support, people are usually happy to help and see it as a sign of strength rather than weakness

Rather than criticise, ask yourself...
What can I do to help?

Once you’ve found your thing that feels effortless, you can put as much effort into it as possible

Keep trying. Even if you fall on your face you’re still moving forwardj

Forgive yourself. Replace “I should’ve known” with “Now I know better”. Or “I should’ve done…” with “Next time I will…”

Cultivating Happiness with Deepak Chopra Action for Happiness · Episode

Really enjoyed my recent conversation with @deepakchopra.bsky.social - now available as a podcast. Lots of wise and thought provoking insights to share open.spotify.com/episode/4uWG...

We all share 3 core psychological needs: for autonomy (feeling in control of our actions and choices), competence (feeling capable and effective) and relatedness (feeling connected to others). These are just as important as our physical needs

Step by step the thing that needs doing becomes the thing that’s been done

Basic ingredients for a good day
🌿 something outside
🥗 something healthy
🎯 something purposeful
😂 something lighthearted 
🧘‍♀️ something calm
💕 something to help others

Give up all hope for a better past. Focus on what you can do now

The stressed version of you isn’t the best version of you. Focus on removing stressors rather than adding new ones

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom” ~ Viktor Frankl

Habits are the foundation for our wellbeing. To make a big life changes, start with small changes to daily habits

Mental strength is less about battling through and more about letting go

Spread kindness freely. It ripples out and returns in unexpected ways

For fast acting relief, try slowing down

Aim for a healthy balance of purpose and enjoyment. Meaningful work is great, but we can’t do it constantly. Relaxing is great, but not all the time

Wise words particularly true when raising children. The last time they fall asleep in your arms. The last time you pick them up. Poignant. Live in the present as much as possible

This is sage advice. I recently created a list with the title - Things Tamsin Needs To Put to Bed and it was helpful.

Calm is contagious. Be calm to help others

Whenever we choose not to let an event or person determine how we feel, we get closer to finding inner peace

Find a healthy balance between letting go and responding. Accept things as they are but take action when you can
