Today’s Soul Advice: Being starved of human touch can have a devastating effect on our souls. Even the most introverted and anti-touchy-feely of us need physical contact from time to time. Ever feel like you need a hug or else you might just ball your eyes out? This could be a sign of touch starvation. Connect with someone and have yourself a good cuddle or even a firm handshake. If people aren’t your thing, you might snuggle up to a pet. Having contact with other warm, living beings is a vital part of the human experience.

Today’s Soul Advice: What is life without laughter? Pretty boring, that’s for sure. Laughing is one of the best innate medicines we can administer to ourselves, so laugh often and with others. Snort, giggle, and roll on the floor laughing out loud. Laughter keeps us sane, lifts our spirits, and makes difficult moments a little easier to handle.

Today’s Soul Advice: Some might say that hope is a double-edged sword. On one hand, hope can inspire us to keep going and push us forward in otherwise dismal situations. On the other hand, when your hopes are dashed, you can feel really let down. Still, hope is essential for bringing your desires into reality and it keeps us going through the darkest times. Never give up. Hope will always be one of mankind’s greatest weapons.

Today’s Soul Advice: It’s okay to sometimes feel like the world is disappointing, irksome, flabbergasting, and that the only way to fix things is to set it on fire and start over. Try not to dwell in this dark place, though. Instead, talk it out with friends, find someone else who needs your special brand of kindness, or start a new project. Of course, if you do decide to set your world ablaze (metaphorically, of course), don’t be a boring villain who just sits back and watches. Make s’mores.

Today’s Soul Advice: Life is really quite like an ocean. Some of us choose to swim towards our goals, even when the tides are against us, others prefer to float, letting the waves take them wherever. There are also plenty of people who combine swimming and floating. Swimming can be exhausting, but swimmers have clear goals in mind and determination in their hearts. Floating takes people places they may not like, but it also allows them to go on amazing adventures. A compromise of the two shows a certain resourcefulness. Whether you swim, float, or do a little bit of both, your choices grant you strengths that will help you navigate the ocean of life.

Today’s Soul Advice: You are the only person whose actions you can control. You are not responsible for how others treat you or react to you. Their actions and choices come from their own view of the world. Of course, this doesn’t mean you needn’t be kind. Of course you should. This does means that when people are unkind to you, it is not your fault or really about you to begin with.

Today’s Soul Advice: When life gives you a handful of lemons, always remember that what you do with them is up to you — and your choice might not be to make lemonade. You could grumpily sit by and watch them rot, or even lash out at others by throwing lemons at them (please don’t!). Or you could make the best of the sour fruit and whip up some delicious lemony treats or squeeze a little in your tea. Remember that with the right mindset, you can make the best out of the sourest situations.

Today’s Soul Advice: An idle mind is no one’s friend if you’re facing anxiety or self-sabotage. If you have moments in which your consciousness drifts toward turning on you, try instead to engage your mind with challenging tasks. Whether you enjoy puzzles, video or word games, or detective shows and books, find ways to keep your mind working so that it doesn’t have a chance to self-destruct. Of course you have to deal with the underlying causes, but keeping your brain positive and engaged can actually help you heal from destructive thoughts.

Today’s Soul Advice: When you’re trying to comfort someone but can’t find the right words to say, it’s okay to say nothing. Sometimes a shared look or a soft touch can express what you’re feeling more than words ever could.

Today’s Soul Advice: The truest success is not obtaining the most material things, climbing to the top ranks, or making the most money. True success is following your dreams wholeheartedly, whatever those dreams may be. So long as you stay true to your heart, you are certain to obtain true success.

Today’s Soul Advice: Some say that distance makes the heart grow fonder, but this is a slight misstatement. The fondness has always been there. It is the absence of the people we care about which makes us realize how much we care for them, not distance that produces such feelings.

Today’s Soul Advice: In times of doubt, remember that you so have courage in your soul — even when it is hard to find. You have the ability to empower yourself, and by doing so you can inspire others. Take a breath. Believe in yourself. Know that your potential is great. You are a star.
