As a parent there isn’t a lot of time to do all the things you love anymore.

Why not try and scatter as many of these ideas throughout your day / week for a more joyful you.❤️

Dance whilst the kettle boils

Ditch the doomscrolling

Think of 3 things to be grateful for

Enjoy a self hand massage

Get rid of the joy-suckers

Add in a tiny luxury in your day

Make a date with laughter

Enjoy 5 mins of creative play

Pay yourself a compliment and mean it

Go outside for a walk in nature

I’m really trying to focus on this for the year ahead so thought others might find these ideas useful too.

What else would you add? What ways do you experience joy?

(Ideas above taken from a gorgeous new book I’m reading by Joanne Mallon titled, “How to find joy in five minutes a day.")
