Yet, as we turn our weary eyes toward a new day, there is a reason for optimism.
Here are some helpful ways to
keep a happy perspective this year:.
Journal of Gratitude.
If you have a few minutes to spare,
write down some things for
which you're thankful.

but I recommend that this becomes a daily exercise. , John Lee, director of clinical psychology for
Executive Mental Health, via Huffington Post.
Don't Forget
to Breathe.
Health experts say you shouldn't neglect to take deep breaths in times of duress.

In times of anxiety,
take five deep breaths to feel calmer.
Water
Intake.

But in the United States, almost 75% of people are chronically dehydrated.
Water is the essence of us
and what we need in order
for our micronutrients and
functions to operate. , Sara Cullen, founder and CEO of GEM, via Huffington Post.
Ask for Help.

Asking for help is not a sign of weakness, and people innately want to help one another. , David Rakofsky, psychologist and president of

that chore you put off.
Let the restaurant do the
cooking for you this once. , David Rakofsky, psychologist and president of
