Nowadays, most people don’t know how to get along with their emotions and sorrows, so they begin to escape their negative energy. When the mood comes up, they will say to themselves: “No, no, I’m fine.” to deceive themselves. But we should know that there is a difference between controlling emotions and suppressing them. When facing emotions, how should we get along?
Don’t resist emotion.
Every emotion is trying to send you a message. When you suddenly feel sad and can’t find the reason, even if you feel this emotion is inexplicable, it is actually your body telling you that what you are experiencing at the moment may make you a little tired, even if you haven’t noticed. At this time, don’t resist your negative emotions, and don’t treat them as a kind of pressure and burden. It is just something that makes you better understand your inner needs. People who choose to avoid it will easily feel empty, depressed and sick because their emotions are not well released for a long time. Therefore, when the mood comes up, we should listen to the advice given by our body, calm down and observe it first.
To learn about negative emotions.
At this moment, we can take out pens and paper and write down our inner feelings or some sentences.
There are three steps you can take to analyze your emotions.
First: What causes my emotions?
Second: What do I think of it?
Third: According to the opinions, find the root and solve the problem.
Nowadays, people are used to avoiding emotions, seldom communicate with themselves, and often can’t find the root cause at the beginning. At this time, you don’t have to worry too much about why you have such feelings. What you need to do is feel it and take this opportunity to learn how to communicate with yourself. You can write down some thoughts about the present. For example, I bought that bottle of perfume for a long time and it seems that I only used it once, and the trophy on the table is dusty. Learn to listen to your own inner voice.
Give yourself a deadline for sadness.
We shouldn’t fall into emotions for too long. You can always pull yourself out of that unpleasant mood. Do what you like as much as possible, keep yourself busy, and don’t get tangled and immersed in emotions. Finally, through continuous practice, we will better understand the root causes of our emotions and enjoy and control them.
In real life, we often encounter a lot of unpleasant things. There is nothing wrong with actively solving problems, but if we persist in eliminating problems, we will fall into pain again. There can be 10,000 kinds of things going on. Don’t stubbornly think that things going in the direction we expect will be the best. We should learn to seek fun and meaning.
Emotion management is a compulsory course for everyone. Remember that things will never overwhelm a person, but emotions will.
So, don’t run away from emotions, learn to get along with them!
