To Quickly Shake Off a Bad Mood, Remember the 3 Ms

• It is normal to experience a bad mood occasionally, when feelings of anger, frustration, anxiousness, or being let down take control over our normal behaviour.
• Emotional short cuts, hacks and quick fixes are limited and temporary in their effectiveness, and it is better to practice acceptance and self-compassion, along with a willingness to go through the feelings.
• The 3 Ms of handling bad moods are:: Move, Make and Meet.

Physical activity and exercise can get rid of lethargy and irritability, and help with serious issues like chronic anxiety and depression.

What’s really great is that you don’t need an hour to improve your mood. Even a stroll in the park or a few pushups can dispel your grogginess, boosting positive feelings in your brain.
