The world feels so dark right now, which means it’s even more important to make time for joy and spread it however we can. I've put together this illustrated guide with inspiration on how you can feel more connected and joyful, even when the world feels dark and scary.
Here are 5 ways you could spread more joy during these dark times.
Connect With A Friend
Feeling lonely? The best remedy is to connect with a loved one. I always feel better after a phone call with one of my besties who lives far away. It's also great to set a regular time to meet up with friends so that you know you'll have some human connection to break up the screen time throughout the week.
Donate to A Local Food Bank
Helping your neighbor through a charity or local food bank is a great way to feel connected and like your contributions matter. We could all use a helping hand at times and donating things like food or warm clothes is a great pick me up.

Connect With Your Community
I have been feeling the need for more community connection lately! We are all so isolated and online that it's easy to forget we all need community and benefit from connecting with one another. Going to local markets or hosting your own is a great way to feel more connected and spread more joy.
Host A Get Together
I recently hosted an art night with some friends and it felt so nice to do something creative while connecting with people I don't always get to see. It's low stakes and a great way to find time to connect, vent, and let out your feelings in a positive, creative way!

Send Some Snail Mail
Getting snail mail in your mailbox from someone you love is the best feeling. It also feels great to be the one sending it! You can use this as another creative outlet by decorating the paper, using your favorite gel pens, or adding cute stickers to the envelope. We've got many cards to choose from in our shop!
