7 day course

The Quick Lift Project

Feeling dull and flat? This course contains suggestions for simple, quick and effective ways to lift your mood and energy levels.

Suggestions include physical movements, poses and stretches, breathing exercises, self-care tips and ideas for things to do to lift the energy if you can take a short break.

Some of the exercises and practices will appeal more than others and some will work better for you than others – our aim is to give you a toolkit that you can then use and adapt as you wish.

Course design

The course is arranged under seven themes. You can either complete one theme and then move onto the next or you can switch from one to another depending on your circumstances and preferences.

Course introduction

When we are feeling dull and flat, the temptation is to zone out and get through the rest of the day by doing the minimum amount possible. While we know that exercise or taking another form of positive action would probably help, the inertia barrier can feel insurmountable and it’s easy to get into a spiral of negativity.

This course aims to provide ideas for ways to break out of this spiral. All of the suggestions are so quick and easy that they don’t require any preparation and can be done wherever you are. Just doing one thing may give you a lift in itself or may make you feel like doing more.

 

What to expect

The suggestions are grouped into the following themes:

  • Move
  • Release tension
  • Stretch
  • Shape shift
  • Breathe
  • Take a break
  • Self-care

General guidance

With the physical practices, always be mindful of your own body and adapt any pose or exercise as needed to ensure your comfort and wellbeing

We recommend making a note of the ideas that you tried, whether you enjoyed them, whether they helped and how you could incorporate them into your daily routines, with a view to building your own personal set of habits to give yourself a quick lift.

Programme content
