We all have those days where we feel that the world is against us. Ever heard of the term "everything happens in threes"?

1. Listen to Your Loved-Ones

Family and friends are everything. Sometimes those around you need a simple reminder that you are there to listen. By being there for those you love, it manifests the love back to you.

2. Listen to Yourself

At times you may feel that you don't know yourself. Take some moments of silence and really breathe. You may be surprised what your body and mind has been trying to tell you.

3. Take a Yoga Class

Yoga is a great way to re-center your body's alignment. It provides a mixture of poses that opens up your chakras as well as helps in obtaining a work-out.

4. Write Down the Things You Want

By writing down the things you truly want in life, it sends the universe a message, bringing it to fruition. Taking the time to think about what you want and putting it on paper helps in guiding your future goals and increases the chance of your achievement.

5. Eat a Balanced Meal

Food is everything. I know what you're thinking... it's 'just' food. Well, not quite.

Food tends to be an underlying cause for negativity. If you are eating a well-balanced and nutritious meal every day, you will notice a shift in both your body and mental state. But...of course it's okay to eat that candy bar every once in awhile!

6. Do a Random Act of Kindness

Holding the door for someone, paying for a stranger's meal, making a donation to a charity. These are all examples of kindness that not only makes you feel good for doing the act but impacts others in a big way.

7. Smile

Smile. That is the best thing to do when you are feeling down. When you smile, you let light back into your body. You create a positive glow that encourages others to smile as well.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
