If you're struggling with low mood, it can be hard to know where to turn. However, counselling can be an effective way to help manage low mood and improve your overall wellbeing. At Copewithcounselling.co.uk, we're here to help you through this difficult time. In this blog, we'll discuss some tips to help improve your wellbeing when you're feeling low.


Practice self-care: Self-care is essential for your mental and emotional wellbeing. Make time for activities that make you feel good, such as taking a relaxing bath, reading a book, or going for a walk.


Stay active: Exercise is a natural mood-booster. Even light exercise, such as going for a walk, can help improve your mood and reduce stress.

Eat a balanced diet: Eating a balanced diet can help you feel better both physically and mentally. Try to eat a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein.

Get enough sleep: Lack of sleep can worsen low mood. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep each night and try to establish a consistent sleep routine.


Stay connected: Social support is important when you're feeling low. Try to stay connected with family and friends, even if it's just a phone call or text.


Challenge negative thoughts: Low mood can be accompanied by negative thoughts. Try to challenge these thoughts by asking yourself if they're realistic or if there's evidence to support them.


Practice mindfulness: Mindfulness is a practice that involves being present in the moment without judgment. It can help reduce stress and improve overall wellbeing.


Seek professional help: If you're struggling with low mood, it's important to seek professional help. Counselling can provide a safe and supportive space to talk about your feelings and develop strategies to manage low mood.
