August 2017 Rock Your Happy Prompts

August 1st – What’s up August? Take a good look at your calendar and schedule some time for yourself, some time for fun, and time for whatever fills you up.

August 2nd – Upgrade – is there something that you use everyday that could be upgraded?

(HT) – I switched from drug store shampoo and conditioner to a higher end s/c and my hair is so happy.

August 3rd – Ice cream date!

(HT) Have a sundae party at home! Here are some serious sundae ideas.

August 4th – Soak up the sun. Get some Vitamin D.

(HT) – If you need a reason why, here are some the amazing health benefits from sunshine.

August 5th – Freshen up! Paint a wall, get a haircut, weed your garden,

(HT) Here are some easy ways to make some fresh updates to your house.

August 6th– Sleep in! Stay in bed and enjoy a lazy morning.

(HT) – These pajamas are my absolute favorite and the gift I give to all of the ladies in my life for Christmas.

August 7th – Go for a swim!

(HT) – I found these amazing beach towels on Amazon and they are perfect for the pool and beach. Super thin and absorbent, but fold very small so they don’t take up a lot of room in the beach bag.

August 8th – Snuggle with a furry friend. Or a warm body. Pets need snugs too. 🙂

August 9th – Book lover’s day – share or send a friend a book that changed your life.

(HT) – I’ll send three readers a copy of one of my favorite books. Hit reply with your address and I’ll send it your way.

August 10th – Doodle! Watch a youtube video and learn to hand letter or draw something.

(HT) This channel is so fun. I found it for my kids, but do the drawings all the time. If you like hand lettering, this channel is great.

August 11th – Buy a houseplant. I always have fresh flowers, but recently started buying house plants (and not killing them!). I love how they look and there are many happy benefits to having plants in your home.

(HT) – This post was the inspiration to add some green plants to my home.

August 12th – Take a class! Online or in person. Try something new or revisit something you miss doing.

(HT) I took this class and loved it. It is a skill that I use all the time now.

August 13th– Sunday brunch!

(HT) – When I need brunch recipe inspiration, I always go here.

August 28th– Clean out your purse (or bag or backpack).

(Happy Tip) – The research was done and these purses are supposedly the perfect work/life balance bags. Maybe a new purse is in my future?

August 29th – Indulge in dessert.

(HT) Need some inspiration? Check out these 16 indulgent desserts (and save a slice of that Brooklyn Blackout Cake for me!)

August 30th – Meal Plan some Back to School Dinners

(HT) – My friend Aggie and I are keeping each other accountable with weekly meal plans. Check out her tasty (and healthy) plan from last week for ideas.

August 31st – August Happy Check – what made you happy this month?

(HT) Make sure to take some time to reflect on the past month and share what your favorite prompts were with us!
