I’m not entirely sure if pollen deserves the blame, or if it’s some kind of cosmic alignment, but we all have those days when staying in bed seems like the only rational decision, and everything else just spirals out of control like we’re inside a giant hamster ball gone rogue.

Our dominion over pollen and cosmic synchronicities is limited to actions like sealing ourselves indoors, perhaps under the covers. Yet, I’m here to offer a few Self-Love emergency kits to navigate what might seem like a day designed by Murphy’s Law, armed with nothing but laughter — or at least, some absurd chuckles.

Dance Like Nobody’s Watching

Because, frankly, viewer discretion would be necessary if they were. The moment I start rearranging the furniture to clear a dance space in my living room, I can feel the adrenaline kick in, ready to expel any negativity from my energy field with extreme prejudice. Any high-tempo aerobics track on YouTube is my go-to soundtrack for this ritual.

Watch YouTube Shorts of Baby Giggles

Maybe it’s age, or a pretense at maturity, but I’ve outgrown the humor in people falling over. However, the infectious nature of baby laughter is undeniable. Catching myself cooing and awing is guaranteed, alongside an immediate mood lift.
