a positive atmosphere = a positive mind

28/5/2019

A positive atmosphere is one of the most vital things to set you on track for a positive mindset. It helps you start to cope better with things in every day life, and makes you feel better about yourself and your surroundings. After all, if you're living in an unhappy place, it gets very difficult to feel good about everyday affairs, and we all have the ability to fix things and create a warm, comforting area where nothing but you and how you feel matters.

I find that whenever I have my bad days, I think about things that could have started it off, such as an argument with my friends, feeling like I look bad, or I couldn't find something important I really needed. Most of the time, it boils down to the fact that something in my "atmosphere" was negative, and lots of things I can do to help cope with these things when it happens again. Here are some things that I think will drastically improve your health by improving your atmosphere, one by one:
  • Tidy your room. I know this is something everybody hates doing, but trust me, it works. You want your room to be uncluttered, just as you want your mind. Keep everything neat and in places, and put everything back once it's used, including clothes! It's so easy to create a floordrobe, but then it's a minefield trying to navigate your room and in the end it will get all smelly.
  • Keep the leisure and the work separate. It's important for us to be able to distinguish the difference between work and play, so organise a space for yourself for work- a certain place where the work will go, and stay. This allows you to be able to keep that in a different place and create a clear line between what is fun, and what is not- so you won't be feeling like you're doing work when in fact you are trying to have fun.
  • Eliminate toxic friendships. A positive atmosphere means friends too. If a "friend" is forever putting you down and giving off unhappy vibes, then this is a problem. After all, we can't be happy when we are criticized and hated all the time, so cut these people out of your life, and find yourself some lovely positive people who will help you to be happy.
  • Cut out the negative thoughts. Every time you have a negative thought, try and replace it with something positive. Look in the mirror and try to find as many things you love about yourself, instead of finding the things you hate. 
  • Smile and tell yourself that you're happy. This sounds stupid, I know, but if you say it, you will believe it. Every morning, look in the mirror, smile and say "I'm happy, and nobody can change that" and soon it will reinforce a positive mindset, and give you a good boost to start off the day!
  • Invest in some plants and things you enjoy in. Relaxation is so important and plants are great for this- all the oxygen is healthy. They also give a distraction and something to care for, and this is one of my favourite ways to make my atmosphere, and then my mind feel happy. Books, films, bath bombs... Anything you enjoy, you should use as this is a great way to feel in a happier place.
I hope you find these tips a helpful way to start having a place where bad emotions do not come out to play, but a happy, relaxing place where you can enjoy your time :)
