Bipolar disorder- the emotional rollercoaster
Health has many definitions. For most people, health means the physical well-being of a person. Is it too strict? The eyes have to look beneath the outer appearance that is always perfect. There are stories behind every person we see. I'm talking about the mental health of you and every person in this world. Although society is developing physically, minds don't reach the level of considering inner health is equally valuable. The modern world conveniently forgets the importance of one's mental health instead it plays with their feelings. Let's change the routine. Let's welcome our disorders as blessings instead of a curse.
Your stories and experiences with bipolar disorder matter. You aren't alone in this quirky, emotional roller coaster. Have you ever worried about situations when you couldn't express your emotions better? Are there people who can catch your inner battle? As a bipolar disorder person, you need someone who will never be tired of listening to your emotional imbalance. Although someone is important, you can handle and achieve without one. All lies in your strong willpower. Sometimes let the pain hit you but, after all, let it hug you with some realities about your hidden talent treasure. Here is the checklist for your emotional well-being. Not only bipolar people, but everyone can try it out to keep in tune with their life.
Gratitude Journal
Life is full of surprises and miracles, isn't it? Each day is capacious to serve your dreams and promote your physical and mental health. Gratitude is a peaceful action to strengthen your soul. Practising it daily makes you empathetic that eventually makes you strong enough to face any hurdle. Do it just after waking up when the morning freshness touches your heart. It can be in any format like writing down in a book or saying to the universe by opening your palms in a prayer style. Your focus is to concentrate on the positive vibrations you feel each day or things that make you kind and productive. Feel the change to kill your bipolar mood swings.
Listening to Music
Music is the soul of the world. The medical world explains it as a medicine that can drastically change the mood of a person by producing happy hormones. Different studies on the impact it creates on the human body are still on the list of scientists. Whatever the results are, we can't ignore what music brings to us when the music station is on. As bipolar people are overthinkers, set yourself up for inspiring music and lines to keep the rhythm. Play the music station whenever the mood drops, feeling like all the efforts are going to be a waste. Believe you are an inspiration for everyone around you. So, you are obligated to keep that label forever.
Being Spiritual by Meditating
Meditation is a way of knowing the waves of your mind and thus your body. Don't be religious but be a spiritual one to explore the innate power of your mind. In this stressful world where your emotions can easily be triggered, maintaining balance is significant. You can download free or premium meditation apps with guided meditation. You will learn the basics of mindfulness through meditation sessions to relieve you from all the tensions that kill your happy moments. Medito and Atom are the best meditation applications that you can download freely from the Google play store. Get the go by being spiritual and positive.
Yoga or Exercise
Move your body in exultation and lead a fairy tale life. Yoga or exercise stimulates happy hormones which act as a shield to protect you from sudden episodes of mood swings. 30-minute physical movement moves you to the next level of understanding. Choose which one suits you the best and start sweating today.
Write a Letter to Yourself
It's not a daily routine but will pay if you do it daily. Do you talk to yourself? How much time do you spend with yourself? Don't think talking to yourself is the behaviour of crazy people. Psychologists connect self-talk with good health. Write a letter to yourself in a friendly and confident tone, and then everything changes from head to foot. You can dwell on some good memories, you can write about your favourite food, novel or whatever you feel energising. Within a week, your mind will be thankful for what you have been doing. A song of confidence will arise in your mind. Ready to feel it? Start writing a letter to yourself, and post it through your heart.
Talk to Yourself
Talking is as important as listening. The restlessness of your mind, fluctuating moods, hopes, plans and everything floating inside you can discuss with yourself. This will give you more clarity and control over what you do next. At least spend 15-minutes talking to yourself in a friendly tone. Lots of benefits are associated with self-talking like memory improvement, increased analytical skills, empathy etc. There is no better friend than you to inspire yourself.
Go into Nature
Want holistic peace? Go into nature, that's the source of inner peace. Create a nature album with photos of flowers, trees, sky, grass and everything that makes you happy and relaxed. Do a daily 30-minute walk to see the sunset or the greenery around you. It doesn't matter wherever you are, the matter is your connection with nature. Your time with nature enlightens you. And all the disappointments disappear after a while.
