Podcasts have become an increasingly popular means of entertainment in recent years and now, there’s a whole host of educational and self-help podcasts that exist to help you to grow and improve your life.

- FaceTime/Zoom
If you can stop associating Zoom with endless work meetings, video calling services can be a fantastic mood-boosting tool. Loneliness is directly linked to unhappiness and sometimes we just need to connect with the people we love. 2020 has made our social lives pretty much unrecognisable, but now is the perfect opportunity to use things like Zoom or FaceTime to call a friend or family member, see their friendly face and get that mood-boosting human interaction into your day.
