Here are things that make me happy
•
a solid 7-8 hr sleep
•
walk in the fresh air
•
inspiring my brain by learning new things and challenging it
•
hugs. I love hugs
•
gooood food. Wholesome belly hugging food like sweet potato fries, eggs, broccoli, sauerkraut, peanut butter, quinoa, spinach, avocado, raw balls... not all together although I’m sure it would be nice! Oh and coffee ...
•
and chilling out and doing NOTHING sometimes! Being still!
So fill up your happiness buckets this long weekend!
