"First I'd like to say this is my first time ever blogging before and hope that my words can make you think hard about things that maybe on your mind and your not sure how to handle them; give advice to those who are in need; share wonderful tips on life (whether my own or from others); Wide range of recipes; etc... Please don't take offense from my blogs though my intentions are meant to be for the good."
Do you ever feel the need to just vent and don't care who hears you, you just need to get it out? This blog is all about how to handle stress and aggravation. I can honestly say I am know for getting all crazy over stress in my life, but I have found some ways to get it out of my system. Some of my "quick fixes" are to write it down on paper, call a friend, go to a quiet spot , and my favorite last resort go somewhere you can be alone and just vent aloud.
When trying the writing method don't worry about how you write it down it can be half-fast and all over the place with thoughts just get it out. I tend to find writing calming for my brain for it gets all my thoughts and words out of my mind, but when I go to look back at my writing afterwards sometimes it doesn't always make sense. That's okay you take the paper and just throw it out "be gone stress" if you have a fireplace lit and can throw it in there go right ahead burn all the bad.
Calling a friend can have its plus and minuses, so make sure you know it's going to help lead you to positive relaxation. For example, pick a friend that you know you can tell them, "hey, I'm having an off day can I just rant and you listen and if you need to rant as well I will do the same for you". Sometimes spouses/significant others are great for that, however it can make matters worse for they may already be worn out with their daily lives and little stuff amongst your relationship. You never want to have your venting backfire on you especially with the ones you love.
Do you have a quiet spot to go to? I find sometimes finding a quiet spot just helps give me that moment to breathe in with the good and exhale the bad out. A quiet spot doesn't always have to be a place thats completely quiet for you, sometimes i like a little background noise (its more about your preference). It can be somewhere in your home ( for some reason when I was a kid it was always my closest),take a walk/drive, or a place like the park/beach. As I got older my favorite quiet spot is near the water; whether I drove to it, walked down to a little beach near by, or just sat on my boat. My favorite part about my quiet spot is water comes off so majestic to me with ever shine and glisten off the top layer of the water and the lapping sounds as it hits up against the shoreline..ahh already becoming at peace just talking about it.
Finally, my favorite thing to do for venting, go somewhere that I can talk aloud and let it all out! I like to lock myself in a room if I am home and just straight up have a full blown conversation with myself aloud and sometimes scream if need be. Now, if I'm not home and I'm in my car I tend to find the most soothing music ever and turn that on so while I talk aloud and get everything out in the open I'm calm and realizing its all going to be okay.. Out with the bad with the good!
I hope this helps anyone who reads this note.. Take it however you want to... Use my advice, don't use it.. I just hope this was enjoyable for your reading eyes ;)
