Start by saying to self: everything is fine. I am grateful, I am happy. I have all that I need. Listing things help alot too, they don't have to be big stuff, or special even. Just reminding self of good things that you didn't expect. And having health, looking well, having good food (generally provisions).
Look at selfies from past and now. Things that help me see progression or improvement.
Learn something slightly off or "not your thing".
Talk nicely to yourself, the way you would cheer someone you love.
Spoil yourself, and cut yourself some slack.

Listen to music that makes you feel good.
Work out, even if it's just a walk. Admire things you walk by. They don't need to be stunning. But the fact that you noticed, feels good to you.
Talk to a friend or a stranger. Complimenting someone is like complimenting yourself. It reveals more about you than the other person. You can compliment yourself too!
Caress your own face. breathe and say, I am loved, I am precious. Even if I don't know where things are going, I will be my own biggest fan.

I know this sounds like faffy lightweight advice, but I’ve learned that the #1 thing you can do to help in stressful times is avoid moralizing and beating yourself up over your perceived failures to Do All The Stuff You’re Supposed To Do.
So, you didn’t fold your laundry? Big deal! Things will slow down at some point and you can get back on track.
Freeing yourself from self-imposed judgments takes a huge mental load off and helps clarify priorities and what you can focus on to get out of the hole.
