Without emotional health, happiness and overall satisfaction in life become almost impossible. And like so many of life’s most important lessons, nobody teaches us these things. Here are 15 things emotionally healthy people do to stay emotionally healthy.
1. Self-Awareness. They observe themselves. They are constantly discovering new things about themselves. getting to know themselves more. Self-awareness is the first step toward emotional health, but it is not a once and done activity. It is the first step toward emotional health every day.
In moving towards becoming emotionally healthy is self-awareness. When you practice self-awareness, you are able to see what habits and beliefs serve you and which do not. You can do so by engaging in self-reflection and self-analysis on a regular basis.
Observe themselves closely and deeply. Listen to their heart mind body and soul.
2. Awareness of Others. Emotional healthy people are aware of how what they do and say effects other people. They are able to put themselves in the other person’s shoes, and as a result, they are quick to recognize the needs of others.
3. Emotionally healthy people question their assumptions about themselves, other people, relationships, and life in general.
4. They allow themselves to be angry. Most of us were told at some point in our lives that anger is bad or not to lose our tempers. But anger isn’t bad. It just is. It’s part of the human condition. You are angry about something right now. You may have been angry about it for 5 minutes or fifteen years. One thing is certain, the anger will stay, until we find healthy ways to process it.
