The third Monday in January has been named Blue Monday due to a combination of post-Christmas stress, those cold and dark nights spent indoors and us basically being extremely short on money.
If you feel down in the dumps today, try these little tricks to cheer yourself up. They’re tried and tested by our AO’ers, especially those moments of mindfulness.
Listen to some upbeat music
Finish that thing you have been putting off for ages
Treat yourself to a massage
Wear your best power suit
Start the day with a motivational quote
Take your work bestie for a game of pool
Have a change of scenery and go for a team lunch
Go for a walk and clear your mind
Take some time to play on work’s PS4
Give everyone who helps you a heartfelt thank you
Visit the on site barber – new hair, new you
Don’t email people, go and speak to them
Take that gym class before you start work
Take 10 minutes to focus on yourself
Hug your team
