There are times in life when we face storms of adversity, which test our will to overcome them. Lately, we have experienced dramatic changes through a global pandemic, and many of us have suffered from personal traumas. No doubt, these are challenging times.
When hard times hit, and the challenges you face are overwhelming, you can either let the situation destroy you or strengthen you. That’s right. You have the choice to select the alternative that will define you.
Whether you are going through a divorce, depression, or economic uncertainty, there is no need to let your life fall apart. There are many ways to help smooth these storm-filled moments and regain some sense of control again!
Even though it may not seem like it, many positive things can come from these experiences. Here are some powerful and easy techniques that will help you grow stronger in any rough time.
Get Creative
When you're faced with a difficult situation, it can be hard to know what your next steps should be. Even if the landscape seems completely uncontrollable and insurmountable at first glance, most times, there is always something we could do.
The truth is that some of our most incredible moments are deeply rooted in challenging situations. Don’t believe it? Try to think of the most remarkable moments in history. They all started with tough times.
Albert Einstein stated that “Out of clutter, find simplicity. From discord, find harmony. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.”
We know that the solution won’t be right in front of us, but if you take a step back and see the big picture, you may discover hidden keys that could help you overcome the challenge.
Turn To Music.
Music is a powerful tool that can be used to heal the body and our minds. Studies have shown it's effective in relieving anxiety before surgery and even boosting your mood when going through depression.
The sound of an instrument has been known as medicinal because it gives meaning to our distress.
When we are going through a challenging experience, the last thing we need is social awkwardness and loneliness to set in. But what if we told you there was one way music could become your companion while also calming our minds? Listening to your favorite song and dancing like nobody's watching will bring the positive side of you. Get lost in music, and you will get incredible results out of it!
Change It Up
Making a change after you identify the critical solutions and takeaways from a difficult time is vital. The first thing to do is to take action. So if it is a change that you can take immediately, do it. This will open your doors so that you don’t have to be in the middle of a rough moment longer than necessary.
Sometimes, we cannot do anything instantly. But taking note and starting to think of a new transformation could empower you to turn the page and start a new beginning.
Prioritize Self-Care.
Challenging times can feel chaotic, and for some, new adaptations may cause anxiety, stress, and sleep issues. That’s why being intentional about our self-care and making time for relaxing and recharging is essential. So how can you manage self-care when problems surround you?
- Schedule a self-care routine for your week
- Treat your body to a massage
- Find time to express your thought and emotions through a journal
- Find 10 minutes each day to meditate or take a power nap
Many things can get in the way of our self-care routine, but when we prioritize, we empower ourselves to be bold for overcoming difficulties and releasing stress.
Connect with others
With advancements in technology, help is literally at your fingertips. So even if your family lives on the other side of town or across the globe, it can be just a few clicks away from being there for you when needed most! Friends are always there when they're needed most, so why isolate yourself? They can be the shoulder to lean on.
Sometimes we don’t realize how valuable social support can be when going through difficult times. Instead of isolating yourself, get an honest opinion or someone to comfort you. Who knows, you could see things from another perspective and be inspired to look forward.
