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.
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?今天,想给大家介绍一种对付消极情绪的简单而又有效的方法。 |
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.
下一次,当你正处于极端的压力之下,感觉愤怒或受挫时,马上停止你正在做的任何事情!不论你正在做什么,都暂时停下来,静坐一分钟。当你静坐时,请允许你自己完完全全地去感受这种消极的情绪。 |
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. 让这种情绪吞噬你。给自己一分钟的时间去真正地感受那种情绪。完完整整的一分钟,但只要一分钟,什么都不要做,只是去感受那种情绪。 |
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.
一旦你完完全全地融入了这种情绪,并真正地感受着它,你会吃惊地发现这种消极情绪也被迅速地清理出去了。如果你觉得还需要更多一点时间去感受这种情绪,可以再给自己一分钟去感受它。 |
When you feel you've had enough of the emotion, take a deep breath, as you exhale, release all that negativity with your breath.
当你觉得已经足够了的时候,深吸一口气,当你呼气时,把所有的消极情绪也一起释放出去。 |
