It's The Little Things

Very recently I've been struggling to focus on the positive things that make me happy and only really seeing the negatives.  Now this happens from time to time as it comes hand in hand with my anxiety - I know that but I am always looking out for ways to help override that negativity and a way to help keep my anxiety under control.

Now when I first started this blog my little sub-heading was something along the lines of 'It's the little things' as I wanted to remind myself and others that there are little things that may seem insignificant to others but can switch around your mood and make you feel super happy (the little things I would be blogging about that made me happy).

So I thought I would remind myself (and hopefully a few of you out there) of the little things that can perk up your mood even though they may seem very little.

• New socks
• Bubble baths
• Clothes fresh out of the dryer
• Fresh bedding
• The sun still shining as you're leaving work
• Your favourite drink in your favourite cup
• The sound a can of pop makes when you open it
• Back tickles
• Having your hair played with
• Finding money you forgot you had
• Popping bubble wrap
• Duvet days
• Disney movies
• The smell of baking
• Dresses with pockets
• The little crunches of a guinea pig eating a pepper
• When there is just the right amount of drink in a bottle to perfectly fill the glass
• Rainbows
• Summer breeze
• New car smell
• Ice cold drink when you're super thirsty
• Taking your bra off at the end of the day
• Waking up early and realising it's the weekend
• The way your dog greets you when they haven't seen you all day

• Uncontrollable laughter
• Watching a film for the first time in a long time and refeeling all the feels

So there they are, I think there are 50 altogether.  What are the little things that make you happy?
