5 Things That Make Life Great!

It is often the simple things in life that make it the greatest. Here’s my top 5 faves!

Food!

We become so accustomed to stuffing our faces 3 times a day if not more that we forget actually how incredible this experience really is.

How many other things can you think of in life that you look forward to this much everyday and get this much enjoyment from with it never becoming mundane.

Throughout your morning at work your mind becomes dowsed in thoughts about that tasty homemade wrap you have stashed away in the fridge or that naughty cookie your other half sneaked into your bag for you.

When we finally get there its like we are transported to a moment of food euphoria. Then we resume our lives and the process is repeated only a few hours later! Life doesnt get much sweeter than that!

Music!

Last year the world generated roughly 47.5 billion dollars in music sales! Which just showcases how powerful and popular this industry really is.

Without a doubt music is something we all enjoy wether we play and sing or just listen. No matter how different are tastes might be there is something out there to suit everyone.

Music It has the ability to completely transform our moods, get us moving and allow us to express our emotions and feelings.

Furthermore nothing beats a good sing along to your favourite tunes, whether you can actually sing or not.

Singing has been the subject of many scientific studies which have all found common conclusions in that this activity can help ease the symptoms of depression and anxiety.

So grab that hairbrush put your favourite tune on and get singing, just make sure your curtains are closed first!

Animals!

Animals are without a doubt one of lifes greatest features and you dont have to be an animal fanatic to enjoy and appreciate the wonders of the animal kingdom.

Almost everybody has companion animals or has been to a zoo or wildlife park where even just looking at an animal can raise a huge smile and instantly lift our mood.

Animals have the powerful ability to bring out so many positive emotions in us such as these which can lead to numerous health benefits.

Many studys on dogs have shown owning a canine companion comes with a vast array of health benefits including more confidence, lower blood pressure and even increased lifespan! Check out my blog on ‘animals that are good for us’!

Bed!

I know what your all thinking right now and this does not relate to sex! I’m talking about how amazing it is to nestle into those warm fluffy sheets after a hard days graft at work.

Its funny how something we hated so much as children becomes so re-enforcing as adults but we have to admit nothing beats cosying up on a cold night and totally unwinding with our favourite book or other half. The hardest part is leaving it the next morning.

Travel

We are very fortunate that our generation has means to travel the globe because years ago you were lucky if you even left your own village.

Now all we have to do is hop on a plane and a few hours later we land in a setting completely contrasting to where we left.

The world hosts such a diverse range of landscapes and structures that you could spend your whole life travelling and still not see everything and some of these are so spectacular its almost a crime not to. We are simply spoilt rotten with pristine natural beauty such as the Maldives and marvellous towering creations such as Taj Mahal. Being able to travel and visit such spectacular places allows us to appreciate actually how incredible the earth and its evolution truly is.

Hope you all feel uplifted and inspired! ♡♡
