I know you have heard all those things before but if you can make sure to do all of them in a single day it can really change you:
- meditate
- drink lots of water
- eat not too much and good food for you, I think I remember you saying you went vegan, whatever you hold positive belief about it focus on that while making the food and eating it
- listen to music that you like. Also try a combination of listening to music that reflect your mood to get it out and listening to music that improve your mood like positive stuff to get it in.
- help/love/share with someone else (seriously this one is surprising)
- have a conversation
- sleep at least 8h and more if you need
- exercise and by exercise I mean make those lungs pump in a ton of air. Run, hike, do aerobics whatever activates the breathe to high intensity for at least 30mins. That's litterally the quickest way to dissipate any emotional charge but it takes more effort. I find running to be the most effective because the high intensity just burn the charge very fast. When it's done it's so relaxing. Yoga, tai chi and muscle training is fine but I find it harder when the body has build up so much negative energy it's like the body will fight it. It will not wamt to relax. Activating the lungs is really crucial.
- have some alone time, a few hours if possible and have a positive conversation with yourself.
- play games/ play piano, have fun and express what you need to get out
- if you can't go in nature at least find a park
- That may be just me but I find that being out at night when nobody is can be very relaxing. I enjoy it so much that sometimes being out in the day makes me dizzy. I don't think we're meant to live in large cities surrounded by metal and buildings loaded with people everywhere running in all directions. I have come to accept that I just prefer the peace and tranquility that it provides to have space and silence during night time. I am much more stressed and emotionally unstable when I live too much during the day. I can't just recommend that for everyone else but it seems my internal clock and body reacts much more positively this way. Sometimes I only notice after an emotional charge has dissipated that I have been living more during the day prior to that. Also I listen to a lot of music like a few hours a day so when I am done I usually need silence. I think most of us do need that but we don't take the time to offer that to ourselves. Sometimes when we have lots of internal noise it's because we have lots of external noise.
After doing all that stillness is much easier to find. We can all struggle to find it sometimes but it's hard to deny that the body sometimes build so much emotional charge that it will resist stillness until at least some of those things are done. None will give you what you want alone and even less if you only do one or two of those things a day. When you combine them in short amount of time it does miracles. It's impressive sometimes how just lacking in one of these areas can expand our imbalances to very vivid and intense ways.
