You’re on Instagram; you’ve stalked your ex’s new girlfriend, checked out your bestie’s page to provide moral support for any recent selfies, mentally wish-listed a pair of boots on your fave blogger’s page, so now…what next ? If you’ve had a bad day and need a little positivity boost or maybe just some reassurance, take some time to take look at the mindful, spiritual and positive IG accounts available out there. Here’s a list at some of my personal faves on Instagram to get you started on the virtual path to positivity…

@thisgirlnamedalyssa

Although this is just the personal IG account of Alyssa Offermann, it’s a versatile account which offers followers an abundance of positive and spiritual affirmations, as well as sisterly- feminist vibes. I have many a time scrolled through my IG news- feed to come across Alyssa’s posts often exactly when they are needed, giving me a picture-sized pick me up to help conquer the rest of the day. A must for anyone’s Insta !

@thegoodquote

The name of this IG page basically sums up what you can expect from it – a good, life affirming quote. And hey, at the end of the day, sometimes that’s all you need. The motivational quotes which feature on this page definitely give you a burst of get up-and-go and those ever desired good vibessss.

@positiveheadspace

A very aesthetically pleasing IG account, @positiveheadspace is simple yet serene. Its posts are uplifting and focus on ways to counter the negativity we often inflict on ourselves, as is the nature of being human. Many of the posts offer reminders to be happy, to take it easy on ourselves, and to enjoy life. If you are on Instagram to escape; I recommend escaping to this tranquil little spot.
