We all need a little tender loving care every now and then, and these small rituals help us do just that. Taking the time to recognize and honor our needs helps us stay grounded, connected to ourselves and cultivate a cosmic balance. Whether it’s an act of self-care or an act of appreciation, these little rituals become powerful reminders of how important it is to take time for ourselves. After all, when we’re feeling content and balanced, we can bring more light and love into the world.

I’ve spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to stay positive, healthy and happy, and over the years I have cultivated a routine of “little rituals” that have become part of my daily life. From meditating, to getting enough sleep, to expressing gratitude every day – these simple habits keep my life in balance and make me feel energized and content. Here are 30 little rituals that have helped me keep a sunny outlook and stay healthy.  Whether you’re looking for ways to reduce stress, get more restful sleep, or just find joy in the little moments of life – hopefully these rituals will help make a difference in your own life.

Mental Health Rituals

1. Practice gratitude: Take a few minutes each day to list off five things you are grateful for.

2. Take breaks: Allow yourself to take periodic breaks throughout the day and step away from your work or studies.

3. Read a book: Set aside 30 minutes of your day to read something that inspires you or makes you laugh.

4. Meditate: Take time each day to slow down, breathe deeply, and focus your energy on the present moment.

5. Listen to music: Play some of your favorite tunes to set a more positive mood.

Physical Health Rituals

6. Exercise: Incorporate some form of physical activity into your day, like a brisk walk or yoga session.

7. Eat healthy: Focus on nourishing yourself with whole, unprocessed foods that make you feel good.

8. Drink water: Make sure to stay hydrated throughout the day by sipping on plenty of water and herbal teas.

9. Get enough sleep: Aim for seven to eight hours of restful sleep each night and stick to a consistent routine.

10. Take a bath: Soak in a warm bath or shower to help your body relax, relieve tension, and release stress.

Emotional Health Rituals

11. Spend time with friends: Connect with those that you love and trust to maintain an emotional balance.

12. Spend time outside: Step away from your screens and get some fresh air to help you feel more grounded.

13. Make time for yourself: Spend some alone time to relax and recharge.

14. Do something creative: Take up a new hobby or find a creative outlet that you enjoy, like painting or writing.

15. Laugh: Watch a funny movie or read some jokes to help lighten your mood and shake off stress.

Spiritual Health Rituals

16. Pray or meditate: Create a regular practice of connecting with your spiritual side and practice mindfulness.

17. Connect with nature: Go for a walk in the park, take a hike in the woods, or sit by a lake or ocean to connect with nature.

18. Set intentions: Create intentions each day that will help you stay focused and aligned with your goals.

19. Give thanks: Offer gratitude for the blessings in your life and appreciate all that you have in each moment.

20. Create rituals: Set up simple rituals that you can practice each day to stay connected with your highest self.

Self-Care Rituals

21. Take a break from technology: Unplug from your devices and give yourself some unscheduled time away from screens.

22. Pamper yourself: Treat yourself to a massage, manicure, facial, or other little luxuries that make you feel special.

23. Declutter: Clear out the items that are no longer bringing you joy and make space for new beginnings.

24. Make time for a body detox. A session in a infrared sauna blanket can help you feel refreshed and renewed.

25. Do something fun: Plan an outing with friends or take yourself on an adventure

26. Dance: Play some upbeat music and let loose with some fun dance moves – it’s a great way to release stress and boost your mood.

27. Connect with your community: Reach out to other like-minded people in your area to build meaningful connections and create a strong support system.

28. Take time to wind down. A red light therapy session can help you relax and rejuvenate after a long day.

29. Practice self-compassion: Speak kindly and lovingly to yourself, forgive your mistakes, and be gentle with yourself during difficult times.

30. Give back: Make a positive impact in your community by volunteering or donating to a worthy cause that you are passionate about.

Amy started blogging as an attempt to cope with her postpartum depression and moving half-way across the world. She hopes that her words can somehow help other struggling moms that feel like they don't have this 'mom thing' totally together. She has two boys under three and in her spare time(what's that?) she enjoys being out in her garden, biking and vegging out watching Netflix. She will never pass down a warm cup of coffee and her favorite past-time is forgetting where she put her car-keys.
