Education of emotional stability for flowering ladies

It is known that emotional stability is one of the most useful abilities that a person can nurture in himself. Nothing makes life easier than the ability to work with painful experiences and find positive sides in all situations.

To date, the development of such psychological skills has become more relevant than ever. Because of such a long quarantine, many have to feel lonely from time to time. And those who have not mastered the methods of psychological self-help, to cope with such feelings is the most difficult.



Therefore, the editorial board "Site" And I decided to come up with some practical tips to help me deal with stress and loneliness.

Before the quarantine, I was sure that I finally managed to find the right man and build a harmonious relationship with him. Now from this confidence and the trace has frozen ..., says Irina.



Frankly speaking, my chosen one is a married man, and I knew that from the beginning. Believe it or not, I was completely satisfied with that. I am not ready to start my own family. But, entering into this relationship, I and someone else’s family was not going to destroy.

The only thing I wanted was to spend time with a nice man I trusted. He also needed nothing more or less than to relax and take a break from the daily chores. It was, you might say, more of a partnership than a love affair.



We discussed all possible nuances in advance, so as not to cause inconvenience to each other. Our meetings took place only on certain days, at special times. In general, it is just like in the famous French film called “From 5 to 7”. Time of lovers”.



But now this smooth mechanism has stopped working. Because my husband is always at home, I can’t even call him. One phone call a week, or a half-hour Skype call, would be enough for me to handle the situation. But alas, even that I can't afford.

Feeling alone and helpless just eats me from the inside out. But the worst thing about it all is a sense of uncertainty. I have no idea what he thinks about such a long separation. Maybe he doesn’t think about it at all and I’m worried about it. Maybe he thought it was the right time to end our meetings once and for all.



In any case, do not want to waste time guessing. I would now know how to do the right thing and regain my peace of mind.

The situation described above is quite difficult. However, even with this state of affairs, you can regain a restful sleep and stop suffering from feelings of loneliness.

The first thing you need to do is stop trying to control everything. It is necessary to understand that some things and life circumstances, no matter how much, are beyond our control. And futile attempts to change this will only deplete internal resources.

Gestalt therapist Vyacheslav Ilyin also advises to tune in to a positive mood and try to give yourself as much attention as possible. “Yes, you are now without the support of a strong male shoulder, but you still have someone to rely on. And this man, honey, you yourself! – says the expert.

“Instead of continually overworking yourself, think about what kind of support you would like to hear from a loved one right now. Then stand at the mirror and say it, looking at your reflection.



At first glance, such a proposal sounds rather ridiculous. But before you give it up, try it, advises Vyacheslav.

Do not ignore anxiety, fear or sadness. On the contrary, you should honestly confess your feelings and desires to be able to work with them.

When to cope independently and not at all impossible, do not hesitate to contact relatives or a friend with a request for help. To avoid censure and unsolicited advice, the request should be formulated in the form of a brief instruction. For example, “Please be with me.” Just listen, without judgment or advice.”



Psychotherapist Irina Panyukova, in turn, notes the need to take care not only of the emotional state, but also to fill the lack of tactile intimacy through all kinds of home spa treatments and self-massage.



Restoring and maintaining peace of mind can also help Pilates, yoga exercises and meditation.
