Feeling anxious? Try smiling or doing a good deed to get rid of it.
Jennifer Taitz, a clinical psychologist, published a new book Stress Resets: How to Soothe(缓和) Your Body and Mind in Minutes. 36________. Here are a few of our favorites.
Name that emotion. You feel overwhelmed with negative emotions and you're not sure why you feel this way. 37________. Maybe you're feeling depressed and you're at a 3 on a 0 to 5 scale. When you're able to observe your emotion, this can loosen your sadness, anger or stress, says Taitz.
38________. There's been an upsetting event and now you think everything is terrible. Grab a pen and paper and make a list of what you care most about: health, friendships, career, hobbies, family. Assign each item a percentage and then draw each section in a pie chart. The image should be an instant reminder that “there are a lot of other things that matter” in your life, says Taitz.
Wear a half smile. 39________? If so, Taitz wants you to try a half smile. Ever so slightly raise the upper corners of your lips. This will automatically reduce all that tension and relax your face muscles, communicating to your brain that everything's OK.
Do a good deed. You feel like you have no control over your life and nothing seems to be going right because you feel powerless, says Taitz. Doing a good deed can remind you that you have the power and ability to make things better for yourself and others.40________.
Taitz says all of these are actions like “small wheels on a big suitcase.” So pause the next time you are feeling stressed and give yourself a reset.
