Episode 21: How To Get Yourself Out of a Funk

In this episode, I discuss the common feeling of "I'm in a funk!" and how to get out of it.
We all have periods of time where we feel off or in a funk. The part to know, however, is that you can teach yourself how to recover faster and feel better faster vs. staying stuck.
I believe feeling low/down can happen for several different reasons, and it's helpful to know what triggered your funk in the first place -- a vacation where you just got out of your routine, a disruption to the habits that make you feel good, a season change, or a life event. Nonetheless - it's important we learn to navigate all seasons to prevent ourselves from going into funks that last too long!
We discuss how best to get out of a funk and specific tactics that will leave you feeling empowered and in control of you, despite what might be going on around you.
Would you be so kind to write a review for The Dream It Do It podcast? At the end of September 2021, I'll be looking at reviews between now and then and choose a $25 Amazon Giftcard winner, so be sure to include your name!
