Improve your emotional wellbeing

"Not all negative feelings are unhealthy. Some can help you bring to attention what's missing in your life. Don't distract yourself with excessive shopping, binge eating or consumption of alcohol because you're afraid to experience sadness or anger. Reflect on what's not making you as happy as you wish you were and the changes you need to make to turn your life around will soon become clear. In the way a high fever compels you to seek medical help, negative feelings are symptoms requiring attention. This New Year, appreciate your emotional wellbeing just as you would your physical wellbeing."
