These days, many of us have fallen into misery. It’s easy to feel lost amid the worldwide return to normal, frozen economy, and realization that the pandemic has inevitably become the new normal. No wonder the sales of plants, self-help books, and bikes have reached record highs as we’re all looking for some sort of emotional shelter.

So to all our fellow anxious souls, we have prepared a real wholesome band-aid, a strictly uplifting and positive list compiled by Bored Panda. Scroll down through the much-needed boost of positivity below, and be sure to share the post with a friend who feels like being tucked in under a warm blanket.

And for those who need an extra boost of wholesomeness, check out our previous articles here, here, and here.

Keeping your spirits high is always easier said than done. Sometimes you just can’t help but feel like the world is against you, especially during the times of worldwide pandemic. Many of us are facing challenges that can be stressful, overwhelming, and cause strong emotions in adults and children. After all, we've lived under numerous public health actions and restrictions for more than a year, and social distancing has made many of us feel isolated and lonely and can increase stress and anxiety.

    Now that the world is returning to normal, many people feel like they cannot keep up with it. Unclear vaccination status, fear of catching the virus, record rates of unemployment, businesses going bankrupt and uncertainty about the future have added many layers to the stress. But whether we like it or not, life twists are unforeseeable, and it's just inevitable we have to find ways to cope with whatever it brings us.

    His wife is unable to curl her own hair and often burns herself, so he stepped up to the plate and learned how to curl her hair. We had the pleasure of teaching him! We taught him how to do volume curls on short hair, how to protect her skin from being burned and we even taught him to put on her mascara.

    My Foster Dog Had Never Been Indoors Before. This Is Her First Nap, On A Bed, In A Home

    My Foster Dog Had Never Been Indoors Before. This Is Her First Nap, On A Bed, In A Home

    Sundae was taken from a dog hoarding situation — one man had 16 dogs (and a deceased dog’s body) in his backyard. The dogs had access only to a junk-filled backyard and a garage for shelter.

    We’ve had her for about a week and you would never know that she’s never been an indoor dog before. She’s totally potty trained, incredibly gentle and she’s very polite indoors. She loves to sleep as close as possible to me in bed — I think she’s just making up for 8ish years of zero affection.

    “The first recommendation I would make to increase positivity is reflecting upon your self-esteem,” she said. Asking yourself questions like “Are you someone who works too hard because you think it’s expected of you and you are attempting to be perfect at everything all the time? Does this or similar behavior stem for some unconscious issue deep inside?” may be extremely beneficial in getting to know yourself.

    “We all have our own little issues in worrying we’re not good enough or that we don’t matter. Working on this is so important, as if you have higher self-esteem, you are more likely to consider yourself worthy of taking time out to work on yourself. A higher self-esteem improves every aspect of your life so it’s worth the investment.”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    According to Lynn, developing a sense of gratitude is another way to improve positivity. “Thinking about ten things every morning on the way to work that I am thankful for really helps lift my positivity and also remember that it could always be worse!”

    The mind coach also suggests increasing collaboration with others, since many of us have found ourselves not wanting to talk with people anymore, “especially after long periods of not seeing people—it’s too easy to not restart (but you need to).” Making yourself social is a way to confront these anxieties, although at first, you may not feel like it.

    “Recently I heard this phenomenon described as a ‘Blursday.’ Every day is Blursday with no plans! Combat this by filling your diary,” Lynn said and continued: “Plan one nice thing a day to look forward to and get it written down so it actually happens.”

    And the last thing is never to underestimate the power of exercise. “Those endorphins coupled with a balanced diet really help to combat negativity and provide you with the energy you need to be motivated,” Lynn concluded. For those who are struggling with addictions or self-control, a pandemic is also a great way to look for online support groups and seek the help you have been postponing for too long.

    Nadia Sparks, a 13-year-old student from Norwich, got juice thrown at her face, was chased and punched, even shown a knife by schoolmates only for picking up litter on her way to school and was named "Trash Girl."

    Undeterred of all the bullying, she has picked up thousands of liters of garbage since she started her project, much of which has been recycled. After her story went viral, she became an ambassador for the WWF and has won international recognition & awards.

    Sometimes animals know and can sense when humans are helping them and don't struggle. Like one of my cats is poorly and needs medication and eye drops, twice a day he lies calmly in my arms and swallows his tablet and lets us give him his eye drops. He knows he needs it so doesn't try and run. For all the harm humans do to animals, it's amazing that they still trust us.

    Pit bulls aren't born dangerous dogs, its owners who make dogs dangerous. Teach a dog how to behave and any breed can be gentle and loving, makes me angry the bad reputation some dogs have just because a small group of people raise them to intentionally be aggressive.

    In most countries and civilisations, our elders live with us. They get care, love and respect from their children and their children get valuable advice, and built in child care. I simply don’t understand the advantages of everyone living in their own in the name of individual freedom, especially if it means leaving the aging to fend fir themselves while your kids are being raised by total strangers. Who benefits from this, except big industry who gets that many more customer households to sell their products to? Genuine question.

    I Can Finally Celebrate My One Year For Being Clean From Self-Harm

    I Can Finally Celebrate My One Year For Being Clean From Self-Harm

    What a journey it has been. It has been one of the absolute hardest years of my life mentally, and I still really have no idea how I pulled through without falling for the temptation to go back to my old habits. When I put on the first bead, it seemed so stupid. It was just a tiny little bead, on a long string... But then it grew, day by day. My progress was so visible, and that was important to me.
    As the months passed by, the thought of sliping became harder and harder, because I had some so far, you know? Often, the very thought of having to start over, was the only thing keeping me from going back.

    When I was a kid, I thought getting citizenship to America was the neatest thing. The people looked so proud raising their hands to declare their allegiance to America. The only thing neater was to maybe have dual citizenship. I was born here and was proud to share. I was only first and third generation. Then I met people who did not want to share. I traveled and had the sudden realization that other countries are home to proud people. And that people immigrate to and from everywhere. When things get tough, many stay and work to make things better. It sounds simplistic, but I think people should live freely anywhere they want to in the world.
