Or remembering to keep thinking positive thoughts before bedtime. Often, the feelings we go to bed with continue into the morning. Hence, never going to bed angry. It’ not just for a healthy relationship, but for a healthy life too! When things get down, don’t let it follow you through the night, into the next morning. Put the work in to make the next day a fresh start.
