EMOTIONAL HYGIENE: WHAT IS IT AND HOW TO OBSERVE IT?

Currently, there is a lot of information on the network about sanitary and hygienic standards and the importance of their observance, especially during quarantine. We urge you to take care of yourself, follow the recommendations of the Ministry of Health and limit contacts until the end of quarantine.

Also, let's not forget about that, that our mental health is just as important as our physical health.
So today we want to talk to you about HYGIENE, but EMOTIONAL.
What is it??

* Emotional hygiene – this is the ability to live in harmony with one's own emotions.

Why is this important??

We do everything, to get rid of emotional pain sooner: we displace him, we try to forget, to hide – anything, if only he didn't torture us. But, as you know, suppress emotions – not the best solution. Leaving our emotions unheeded, we only worsen our condition and risk facing serious complications.

Where to start?

– Observation and recognition

First of all, it is important to notice your experiences and emotions. If you are sad or in a bad mood, hundreds of emotions can be hidden in it.

but in moderation, you are angry, afraid or anxious – emotions must be noticed and recognized.

– Adoption

Do not deny your own emotions, and accept them. Don't blame yourself because of them! If you are angry – be angry, if you are scared – be afraid.

The main thing – understand, what exactly is happening to you, and accept it.

– Don't avoid your emotions

It is important not to avoid or ignore emotions, which seem taboo to you.

We are arranged like this, that no experience and emotional state comes to us just like that – it is contained.

If any feeling accumulates in large quantities, it can manifest itself in psychosomatics – you can get sick.

– Talk about your feelings

Don't be afraid to express your feelings to a person, if they are related to her. But do it ecologically, that is, yes, not to offend.

But you don't need to keep your feelings about another person to yourself – malice, image, incomprehension.

– Restore resources

It is very important to restore your resources. If you have experienced any negative emotions, realized them, accepted, spoke, you may feel tired/drained.

In this case, please yourself with something, do that, who like to argue and conflict.

– Give yourself time

To learn to understand your emotions and feelings, receive them and speak, you will need time.

It's a skill, which you will develop over time.

– Don't scold yourself

If you fail, don't beat yourself up, but on the contrary, support and show care.

– Share with loved ones

Do not be afraid to share your experiences with loved ones, who will support you.

bless you!
