Small Changes That Make a Difference

When you’re down, you might want to wait for something big to happen. But small steps often have the biggest effects that last the longest. Take a few deep breaths or stretch for five minutes to start your day. Small acts of mindfulness like these help clear your mind and make room for a better mood to take over.

Think about small changes you can make to the way you normally do things. Have you been putting off going for a walk? A pastime you haven’t done in months? A simple thing like drinking an extra glass of water can help you feel better and give you more energy. It is possible to make changes; you just need to begin.

How Important It Is to Connect
