It might be kind of late for this depending on where you live, but I go for a long walk. I find if I go for like an hour to an hour and a half I usually feel much better. Sometimes I can't remember what I was sad about to begin with afterwards lol

Walking is so unbelievable healthy, I walk every single day, no matter the weather and conditions. Doesn't have to be long, but a walk to start or finish the day is super refreshing.

I try to walk everyday unless I'm sick or it's raining lol it really is great for both your physical and mental health!
