Ways To Slow Down Your Mind For Emotional Health
Hello All!!!!
Is your mind constantly pondering over something or the other? Are you always processing stuff in your brain without slowing down and assimilating things? Do you want to halt your racing mind and let go of the extra baggage you are carrying around?
For that you need to try and live in the moment and soak in the present for a while. Here is a list of things that can help slow down your mind:
1) Don’t worry about the petty stuff
You need to start focusing on the bigger picture. That means you should not be picky on why people behave with you in a certain way. For example, if someone is good to you on the whole, it would be better to overlook the minor indiscretions or mildly rude behaviour thinking that it was probably a bad day for them. This way you can have peace in your heart always and avoid any kind of friction with the other person. And that is how you can make relationships last for a lifetime.
2) Let people get to the conclusion by themselves
It is better to try to wait for the person to finish his/her train of thought and then catch up with you. It is way more advisable than surging 3 stations ahead and expecting the other person to get there faster. You must adjust your pace and make people arrive at the conclusion along with you.
3) Speak out when in doubt
When someone says something to you and you analyze it through all possible angles, you can arrive at a different conclusion. It does not mean that the person intended to say so. For your own emotional and mental well being, you should not fret about it till you check with the other person. Don’t create stories in your head and build your own demons.
4) Choose your battles
It is essential that you make sure to focus on one thing at a time. Choose one thing you want win the other person over and let the rest go. Also remember that you cannot win always.
5) Make peace with things you cannot forgive or forget
Have you been hoarding too many thoughts inside your mind? Has it been difficult for you to forgive or forget people? It is high time you let go of things that are out of your control. All you need to do is that let that particular thought or emotion remain deep inside you and try your best to not bring it up or analyze it every now and then. Remember what you pay attention to, grows. So why should you bring up all the misery in front of you from time to time? There is no point in living in the past! It is your present that actually matters.
Breathe freely and let go on the mental monsters that are weighing you down.
Hope you can now slow down your mind for emotional well being!
