想一想上一次你情绪消沉时的情景:压力,愤怒,或是受挫。当被这些消极情绪占据的时候,你是否还能正常地思考呢?
Welcome to Faith Radio Online-Simply to Relax, I’m Faith.
Think about the last time you felt a negative emotion: like stress, anger, or frustration. Were you able to think as you were going through that negativity? Today let me show you a simple but effective exercise to deal with a negative emotion.
The next time you find yourself in the middle of a very stressful time, or you feel angry or frustrated, stop!Whatever you're doing, stop and sit for one minute. While you're sitting there, completely immerse yourself in the negative emotion.
Allow that emotion to consume you. Allow yourself one minute to truly feel that emotion. Take the entire minute, but only one minute, to do nothing else but feel that emotion.
Once you've allowed yourself to be totally immersed in the emotion and really feel it, you will be surprised to find that the emotion clears rather quickly. If you feel you need to hold on to the emotion for a little longer, that is ok. Allow yourself another minute to feel the emotion.
When you feel you've had enough of the emotion, take a deep breath, as you exhale, release all that negativity with your breath.

By allowing that negative emotion the space to be truly felt, you are dealing with the emotion rather than stuffing it down and trying not to feel it. You are actually taking away the power of the emotion by giving it the space and attention it needs. When you immerse yourself in the emotion, and realize that it is only emotion, it loses its control. You can clear your head and proceed with your task.
