Dress up! & start your day early with smiles and cheer. Even if it's hard to imagine Eid without Eid salaah, and you need to tell yourself to be cheerful, try and wake up with excitement and wearing your best clothes.

Re-imagine what *seeing family* looks like this year. Some of my favourite memories are skyping with family across the world, calling family (remember calling cards?) & getting excited every time the phone rang. Plan from now -schedule something with at least 1 friend.

Make new traditions for this year- maybe it's board games, for us, we often went to the cinema to see a film, and it felt like a special Eid tradition. I still get excited if I see a movie in the days following Eid. This year, could you plan a movie afternoon with great snacks?

You might not be doing the same baking you would do normally (because you/your pod can only eat so much cake), but still, make teatime, and whatever meals you are eating on Eid an EVENT. Take out the special mugs. It doesn't have to elaborate, but enjoy your best.

And if you're wondering about how to bring on that feeling of happiness, it can be in the little things. One of my fav parts of the day: coming downstairs and new outfit or not, we would admire and compliment each others appearance. Point is, Eid is great independent of context.

Duas for the very best of days, for hearts that feel full, and for good company, and for an excellent celebration to the end of an insha'Allah excellent month. We have got this insha'Allah. ❤️❤️❤️
