3 Tactics to Combat Compression is a guide to help you get out of the gloomy funk. We all have it and winter season is when it usually raises its ugly head. What is compression? It is what I call it when I start feeling depressed. I am not clinically depressed, and this guide is for people who need care from a medical doctor for depression. I call it compressed because the weight is heavy, but I can come out of it without assistance. Not the same- and hopefully, these tactics could help everyone.
Coping Tactic 1
Breathing. Yes something as simple as breath can make me feel better. I use conscious breath everyday, many times a day. When I am feeling extremely down, nothing is going right, or I just have a bad attitude, the first thing I do is breathing exercises.
- Deep Breath in and hold 6 seconds.
- Release
- Deep breath in and hold 9 seconds.
- Release
- Deep breath in and hold 12 seconds.
- Release
This simple but easy task makes my head quit spinning so fast. It allows me to gather my thoughts and sit with them for a minute. Sometimes, I repeat this exercise 3-6 times before I feel a little better. Check out more on Conscious Breath here.
Coping Tactic 2
Body Movement. Yes you heard me. I move my body. I either go for a walk, if weather permits, or I dance in the living room like no one is watching. The movement of your muscles release chemicals inside our brains that make us feel better. Pair that with music that is of the right tempo and hitting the right beat and you can make your psyche feel wonderful. The bonus with this tactic is that you burn calories and increase your energy level.
Coping Tactic 3
Hydrate myself properly. A lot of times when I am feeling like everything is against me, I hydrate myself with filtered water. I find that if I am a little dehydrated, I am more irritated, my patience for myself and others wears thin. After a little research, I found that the proper hydration makes a big difference on how we feel mentally. If you want to learn more, please follow this link.
