We humans are suggestible creatures. It can be a dangerous trait, like when your intentions to cook a healthy dinner take a detour down a mac ‘n’ cheese rabbit hole on Pinterest. Or when a 50% off announcement lands in your inbox and suddenly you’re shopping instead of doing your taxes (raises hand guiltily). Yet we can use our suggestible natures to our benefit, too! The simple act of reading an uplifting quote or scrolling through peaceful images can have a positive effect on our mood and outlook. And when the winter doldrums strike, reveling in some cozy winter inspiration can make us feel toasty and calm without even touching the thermostat. Take these two stylish Instagrams to follow as the perfect example!
