Make Your Bed

Making your bed after waking up can give you a feeling of accomplishment and a sense of calm. Mental health struggles can make little tasks seem hard sometimes, so it’s important to celebrate the little wins like this. Even though it seems like the smallest of tasks, let’s be honest, it can be so hard to make your bed on most days. But if you start your day off with a made bed, you just accomplished something and feel more ready to accomplish the next thing on your list. It’s a great way to start your day off right!
