Emotions are the first signals generated by your body and mind when you need to pay attention to something in your life. Being in control of your emotions means that you are able to approach any situation rationally. Catch negative emotions, from their source, and use their energy as motivation for your actions.

How do we become aware of our emotions? Like most people, it is possible to believe that if you ignore, for example, painful emotions, then you will have positive emotions and positivity in general in your life. But it's not like that at all.

Your emotions make their presence felt for a reason. They indicate an increase in energy levels in your body, to deal with situations such as your partner's anger, failure or perhaps disapproval from your boss.

If you are not aware of their presence, your emotions will intensify to the point where they will force you to pay proper attention to them. When you experience a negative emotion, stop and ask yourself why you felt it. If you don't do that, then let's learn how to deal with emotions.

1. Calming

Once you are aware of your emotions, use calming techniques so that you reach a state of mind in which you can think clearly. First, you need to calm down physically. Sit comfortably, close your eyes, inhale and exhale deeply three times, breathing from your stomach. Then calm down mentally with methods such as saying the words of your favorite song or counting from 100 to 1. Once you are calm, it will be much easier for you to focus and cope with the situation you are in. Negative emotions need to be explored, you can't just ignore them, because that way you can take control of them, instead of letting them control you.

2. Release

When you experience a strong negative emotion, you can lessen it by experiencing it. What do you mean? Mentally, describe your feelings or feelings for yourself. Or, if you want, find a quiet place where you can scream or cry at will. Go ahead and deliberately exaggerate how you feel and continue with the state of negativity as much as you can.

Once you feel better, take note of how long you continue to express yourself in a negative way, and if that doesn't happen to you, keep going. Do you find this advice strange or inappropriate? It's time to dump her and move on.3. Vina

Guilt is actually a reverse critique, because you feel that you have acted wrongly. This can be helpful. If you feel guilty before making a decision or action, then stop and think better. If you feel guilty about an event, then you need to make changes. If you feel guilty about everything and everyone or if you can't give up blaming yourself for your past, then something is completely wrong.

What can you do right now? Something very simple: imagine the event that produces the feeling of guilt, as if it were happening to another person, so you will look at things from a much more objective perspective, you will be able to understand the overview and you will also he could tell how much you were guilty and if he needed to feel guilty.

4. Anger

Anger is a criticism directed outside of you, because you feel that others have acted wrongly from your point of view. If someone threatens you, then anger is a good feeling, because it stimulates you to defend yourself. But if you are angry, angry that someone has not lived up to your expectations, then nothing but an induced state of unhappiness, failure, sadness and negativity is happening.

Instead, adjust your expectations to more realistic ones. Try to understand why another person does not live up to your expectations, your standards. Ask them to make changes to what they do and how they do it. Leave and come back after you calm down. If none of these ideas work, then let the anger go away on its own.

5. Determination

When you are in conflict with someone, you need something from him or someone denies you your rights, it may seem that the only way out or solution, in such a situation, would be to withdraw or fight for your rights. There is a third approach.

A determined, determined approach means having a mature, mature attitude towards your needs and desires, without giving up or being aggressive. It means you have the right to ask what you want, and it is normal to be heard.

Which, in turn, suggests how you can get what's yours. However, you need to keep in mind that the other person needs to be listened to, to acknowledge their point of view, and to negotiate a solution from which you both have something to gain.

Being determined means valuing the needs of others as well as your own. A firm statement is usually brief and makes it possible to avoid blaming someone. When making such a statement, keep in touch and be respectful. And, of course, if you've made a mistake, be aware of it and apologize to the person you offended.6. Anxiety

Doing well with anxiety is not good at all and it means that it warns you that you may have difficulty solving a problem. Every time. A certain concern, up to a certain level, is normal in everyone's life, so don't expect to feel some tension in your life. However, expressly, when you are stressed, you will see that the level of anxiety, nervousness, anxiety or whatever you want to call it, does not decrease.

To avoid this, you will need to make a clear distinction between what you can and cannot do, what is your responsibility, and what is not your responsibility. You have to learn that there are things that are simply not your problem. But when something is your problem, you need to take immediate action and reverse the situation from a negative to a positive one.

In today's world, it is vital to have energy, enthusiasm, optimism, joy in life, to do things with pleasure in all areas of your life. Only then can you be happy and share your happiness with others. We all have emotions, and managing them means managing our lives. I hope the above information is helpful and helpful to you
