These seven steps are within your control and may be a way back into joyful living.
1, Take stock of your situation.

Are you suffering?
Feeling so-so?.
2, Take time to celebrate the little things.
It’s really important that post-pandemic we embrace more and more celebrating, Tyler J.

3, Give "Sunday dinner gratitude" a go.
It doesn't matter what day you pick, but experts recommend a weekly gratitude ritual such as keeping a list of things for which you're grateful.
4, Make "five-good-deeds-in-a-day" a weekly practice.
Doing five acts of kindness in a single day, once a week can do wonders for your sense of flourishing.

6, Prioritize making connections (even if they're short).

7, Instill meaning into your daily routines.
Finding deeper meaning in mundane tasks will help give purpose to your day to day tasks
