Sometimes, a dip in mood is simply a result of fluctuating blood sugar or low energy. Keep your energy levels stable throughout the day by eating a small, nutritious snack between meals. Choose something that provides sustained energy, like a handful of nuts, a piece of fruit, or yogurt. This prevents hunger-related mood swings and makes it easier to maintain focus and conquer challenges that arise, ensuring your physical needs don't exacerbate a difficult day.

64. Practice Stress Management

Stress is a major contributor to feeling down. Actively incorporate proven stress reduction methods into your day. Breathing exercises (like deep belly breaths or the 4-7-8 technique), meditation, and yoga have all been shown to effectively alleviate stress, anxiety, and even depression, while boosting happiness and confidence. Make these practices a non-negotiable part of your routine to proactively manage the impact of stressors and cultivate a calmer, more resilient mind.
