Hey everyone! Are you feeling a little down now that the Thanksgiving festivities have wrapped up?

It`s totally normal to feel a bit of a lull after a big holiday, but don`t worry, we are in this together!

Here are some awesome ways to beat those post-Thanksgiving blues and keep the good vibes rolling:

1. **Embrace the Leftovers:** Let`s start with the delicious leftovers! Whip up something creative with them. How about a turkey and cranberry quesadilla or a sweet potato pie smoothie? Yum!

2. **Get Moving:** A brisk walk or a fun dance session can do wonders for your mood. The endorphins released during exercise will give you a natural boost.

3. **Plan Your Next Adventure:** Nothing beats the blues like having something to look forward to. It could be as simple as a movie night or planning your next holiday gathering.

4. **Reflect on the Good Times:** Take a moment to reflect on the happy moments from Thanksgiving. Maybe it’s the laughter you shared, or the delicious meal you enjoyed. Cherish those memories!

5. **Spread the Cheer:** Keep the spirit of Thanksgiving going by doing something kind for someone else. Volunteer, donate, or simply pay a compliment. Spreading positivity is contagious!

Remember, it`s okay to feel down, and there`s so much joy to be found in the simple things. Let`s keep the Thanksgiving spirit alive in our hearts! 🌟💖✨

Get outside: Even for just a moment, get bundled up and take in a deep breath of crisp cold air. ☀️

Keep up healthy eating and sleep habits. There is a strong connection in our gut health and mental health. Nourishing our bodies is an excellent way to improve mental health. 🥦 🥕

Stay connected: Even during the holiday season, we often begin a version of hibernation and isolate from others. Maintaining social events and enriching your free time will increase your serotonin, in turn improve your mood. 🫂

Be mindful and meditate. Avoiding going on autopilot and be truly present 🧘‍♀️

Enrich your senses~

1. Enjoy a comforting candle

2. Cuddle up in a soft blanket

3. Slowly sip your water or favorite drink

4.Listen to a song that makes you want to dance

5. Pause to watch the snow fall, snuggle up to a favorite movie, or watch for a rich sunset.
