大多數人都有不開心的經歷，有的人可以很快走出來，有的人卻被封鎖在自己的過去，無法自拔。情緒的好壞直接影響到我們的生活。無論你有多麼難過，都要告訴自己，過去的都過去了，現在和未來才重要，不要讓情緒掌控自己~
The way to lift up your mood
改善心緒的方法
The Everyone has periods in their lives when everything seems very hard, when
there’s nobody to talk to and the mood is just getting worse and worse. But
why sit and think howpathetic you are? There are some things that may help you
lift up your mood. If it fails you, at least while doing these things you won
’t have time to think of your problems. You win anyway!
每一個人在其生活當中，都有這樣的一個時期：一切事都是那麼不順心，沒有人可
以交流，心緒變得越來越糟糕。但是，為什麼你坐在這兒總是想著你是多麼的可憐呢?這
兒有些方法能幫助你改善你的心緒。假如這些方法都不起作用的話，至少，當你在做這些
事的時候，你就沒有時間來想你的問題。無論如何，我們是贏家!
The first thing you should try is socializing and thinking positively. It
’s very hard, because usually when we feel depressed we lock ourselves at
home and try to think about all the bad character issues we have. But if you』
ll try to force yourself and call a friend for a cup of coffee, the chances
for changing your mood into better are very good. Just try to avoid bad
thoughts. Instead, try to think only about the bright side of your life. Don』
t forget: We are what we think we are.
第一件事就是：你應該融入人群並想積極的方面。這很難，因為通常當我們感到失
望時，我們就會把自己鎖在家裡，試圖想著我們自身的不好的品質。但是，如果你強迫你
自己邀請朋友一起去喝一杯咖啡，讓自己有個機會去改變心緒，這是非常好的。避免壞的
想法，相反，你應該想像你生活中那些精彩的一面，不要忘了：我們是我們所想像成的那
樣。
You should also try doing something only for yourself, something totally
selfish. This could be something you wanted for a long time: maybe a short
trip, a coat, a ring or anything that could lift up your mood. This doesn’t
have to be extravagant nor costly. The point of all this is being good to
yourself.
你應該做一些專門為你自己做的事，完全是為你自己的。這可能是你一段時間以來你
所想要的東西：可能是短途旅行、一件衣服、一個戒指或者是任何能改善你心緒的東西。
這不必是非常奢侈的，也不必是非常昂貴的，只要它們有對你有好處的一面。
Not only giving presents to yourself can lift up your mood. Buying things
to others may be a perfect way to feel happy. Think of your friends, family,
relatives or even local charities，choose one person and give him a gift. It
doesn’t have to be something expensive nor big. It may be just a little toy
to your poor neighbor’s child. Making another person feel happy will make you
feel good in your heart and mind.
買禮物給自己不僅僅能改善你的心緒，買東西給別人也是一個使你感到高興的極好
方法。想想你的朋友、家庭、親戚，甚至當地的慈善機構，選擇一個人並給他買禮物。這
不必是什麼昂貴的或大的東西。這也可能是給家庭貧困的鄰居的小孩買的一個小玩具。使
他人高興也能快樂自己。
Renting a good or happy film is always a good idea. Laughter is a very
good panacea for all kinds of illness!
租一部好的或搞笑的電影也是一個好注意，笑能治百病。
Meeting a positive person should be very useful. Just try to keep your
problems off the conversation. The idea here is to get out of your shell and
have some interaction. Get involved with someone else and your mind will take
a turn as well.
與一個積極的人交流也是有用的，在談話中避開你的問題。這個理念就是：走出你
自己的圈子並與他人多些交流。多與他人在一起，你的觀點和想法也會轉變的。
Most bad moods and mental attitudes are the result of something that had
happened to us in the past. It is vital to your mind, soul, body and your life
on the whole that you stay in the present with all your thoughts and feelings.
Try to concentrate on the present and future to make your life better in every
possible way.
大多數不好的心緒和心理狀態是過去的事情發生的結果。總體上，你認識到你所有的
想法和情感是生活在現在，這對你的心理、靈魂、身體和你生命是非常重要的。把你的精
力放在現在和未來吧，用各種方法使你的生活變得更美好。
Taking a walk in a crowded place is also one of the ways out. Seeing other
people, understanding that each of them also has days like this should force
you to do something that would change the situation.
在擁擠的人群中散步也是一種好的方法。看看別人，想想他們也有與你類似的時期，
那麼，你就應該做一些能改變情形的事。
If you have too much time—volunteer it. We usually think that the
problems we have are huge, although if you』ll try to go to hospital，you』ll
see that there are a lot of people who have more severe problems. Moreover，
you』ll see that people are still working, smiling, and laughing. This kind of
work will definitely help you understand that your problems are very small and
maybe even funny.
如果你有很多的時間，去做志願者吧。我們通常認為我們的問題是非常巨大的，一
旦你去了醫院，你將會看到這兒有許多的人，他們的問題更嚴重。然而，這些人仍然在工
作、在開心地笑。你將會認識到你的問題是多麼渺小和多麼可笑。
Try to meditate while listening to relaxation music. It helps to
concentrate your mind and relax your body.
當你在聽音樂的時候，試圖思考一些問題，這有助於你集中精神和放鬆身體。
Don’t forget to be creative! Because creating things alters our mood.
Creating doesn’t include only painting or playing an instrument, it also
includes cooking, sewing, writing， photographing and many other activities.
While concentrating on creating you will forget how you have been feeling.
不要忘了創意!因為創造一些東西也能改變我們的心緒，創造不僅僅包括繪畫和演奏
樂器，它還包括做飯、縫紉、寫作、攝影和其他的一些活動。當我們集中精力創造時，我
們就會忘掉我們曾經的情感。
All you have to do is to take control of your emotions and make them
positive in spite of letting them control you. Making yourself feel better isn
’t that hard, it’s hard only to start doing something that would lift up
your mood.
所有我們必須要做的就是：控制我們的情緒並使它們積極起來，而不是讓它們來控制
你;使你感覺更好並不難，難的是你開始能做些什麼事來改善你的心緒。
