Ways To Loosen Yourself And Be Emotionally Stable

We all have emotions. It’s OK to feel big emotions sometimes. It’s OK to get angry when someone pisses you off. Sometimes, it’s good to let people know that you are not a pushover. It’s appropriate to express yourself for the right reasons without causing any much damage. When you keep that much anger boiling inside you, it eats you up, doing more harm than good. There are times when in expressing your anger, things get extreme and out of control, and you regret handling things the way you did. And prefer letting out all those unwanted emotions and loosen yourself from the anger and guilt and from all the things you cannot control.

Take a look at five (5) ways to loosen yourself and be emotionally stable;

1. Be more concerned in your reaction than who/what triggered it.

It’s necessary to know that life is only 10% of what happens to you, the remaining 90% is based on your reaction to events about you. This should prompt you to pay more attention to your reaction than whom or what triggered you to act in a certain manner. Pay less attention to what instigated the action. When you learn to act in a different manner regardless of the kind of information that gets to you, it helps loosen you up and be more emotionally stable.

2. Don’t be so hard on yourself.

Most times, people drown themselves in regrets when they overreact to situations that could have been carefully handled. It’s OK to feel guilty after a bad reaction. It shows you still have a heart. You don’t have to be ashamed of your feelings. These feelings show that you are still human and liable to make mistakes. Learn to take it easy with yourself.

Do not burn yourself out trying to figure out why things happened the way they did. Free your mind. Direct your thoughts towards positive possibilities. Loosen yourself and be emotionally stable.

4. Be in the body.
