Ever felt like you have been stressed and gloomy so long that you feel like your peace of mind has been ripped apart and you’re in the shackles of pain which seem inescapable? You want to let it out but don’t know the right way of doing it. It only adds to more pain when you keep all your emotions bottled up inside yourself. You need to let it out if you wish to unburden yourself.
Who is better at consoling you than you yourself? Let it out not in front of people but to your own self.
You are our own savior!
You need to let it out by putting it on paper. Write what you feel! I know the idea of engaging in a mental exercise in such a situation sounds a bit absurd. But would you like pain to consume you?
I know it is difficult to think of anything at such moment but misery and I’m not saying not to feel it. Feel it and absorb it. But then you need to take it all out!
Let it out in the form of words. Let the words bleed for you!
Trust me with this, this is the best thing you can do to yourself, to relieve yourself from all that you have been suffering!
Words will set you free! They will make you feel light and you would be surprised yourself. It won’t take away all the pain but surely would make you feel a lot better!
“Communication is the key”, they say.
But what sort of communication? Our idea of communication is so limited. We always think of it as mutual but never do we see it as one-sided. A communication should also be the right way. A communication can help a lot in letting out but by communication, I do not mean a communication with people, no matter how close they are.
Communication with dogs is the best thing to do for they are best companions one can get! Sit with that little faithful creature for a while and communicate. You won’t get reciprocation in terms of words but surely you would, in terms of love. The idea might seem crazy but believe me, this is one of the best therapy if you wish to stay away from the stress of placing trust in people’s hands.
Even if you don’t feel like communicating at that point, just sit and pat that beautiful four-legged best friend. It'd definitely leave a 'pawsitive' impact on you.
Another right way of letting out is a communication with God. Communication with a higher power is extremely helpful in relieving one’s soul and guiding in the right direction. It also provides with an answer instantly. Letting out in front of God is all you need! You'd surely experience those breakthrough moments; the incredible miracles that would cement your faith and cause you to crave more time with Him.
But what about the time when you don’t feel like communicating at all? When you don’t want to be reminded of the misery and pain? Distraction becomes so important at such a time. A distraction is right only if it is done the right way!
A distraction is not getting swayed in a wrong path but doing it the right way and is there a better way of distracting our minds than books and music?
You just need to grab a book and let yourself be lost in the world of fancy. Let yourself wander in the pools of imagination and let it take you far away from the pangs of harsh reality.
Music is another right way of relieving yourself. Music has the power of bringing us back to life from a depressed state. We can be resuscitated by a single inspirational melody.
Let yourself be lost in the world of rhythm and let it soothe you. Let it heal your wounds.
Make the right choice and follow the right way of unburdening yourself!
