How to overcome emotional imbalance.

Emotional imbalance invites unwanted fabricated troubles to life. An irresistible overflow of emotions shakes and exhausts one’s mental, physical and social equilibrium. Nowadays a balanced life has become the primary concern for everyone. A paradigm shift of EQ over IQ is entertained in the interviews be it formal or casual.

Hitting the harsh realities of life one by one, breaks the stereotypes one had about life. It will take time for an individual to internalise his uncompromisable craving for certainty can’t be settled. Instead, accepting the uncertainties of life is the way to compensate for such a desire. There introduces the concept of ‘emotional balance’ or emotional intelligence as a conscious regulating attempt to handle the wavering moments, events and feelings one experiences as a living being.

What’s in Practice

People spent a marginal amount of money on Psychologists for consultation. Each session may give them a temporary spirit to engage in his affairs but drain no sooner. Anyone who failed to seek guidance from any source regarding habit consultancy has a lesser chance of improvement.

People have this practice of running toward a monk and listening to his great advice then sitting back. The monks can lead a peaceful and focused life because they don’t spend energy on everything. They treat energy and time for the most important things only.

People do need to learn to grow with the flow. An individual can evolve practically and that determines his or her emotional growth. One does need to engage in repeated attempts to overcome this emotional imbalance. Here are some popular methods and explained them on a general basis.

Steps to overcome the emotional imbalance.

1.Find the cause:

It is mandatory to find oneself the root cause for the unbalanced life he has to deal with. Closely watch the change in one’s own emotions. One may tend to conclude the problems in life by means of fate. Of course, adversities in life are inevitable. But the way one approaches the problems are the root of the so-called problems, say emotional imbalance. Thus in reality there is no actual problem. It’s a feeling when the reality couldn’t live up to the expectations.

2. Shift in Perception

As mentioned above everyone has a certain level of expectation about life. It is moulded primarily through social conditioning. Earlier it was the conventional norms prevailing in social institutions like religion, marriage etc. But this social media world has to offer a different package of severe mental health issues. Such a show-off life compels individuals to be happy all the time.

Watching motivational reels or shots boost people’s spiritual energy level for no reason. It brings out the norm of successful people are the only ones leading the right form of life. Or it tends to bring a centre for viewing the diversified life as a critically negative attempt. But when reality comes there are blocks and delays which demand nothing but patience. The more mature one goes the less materialistic he goes. The external appearance and occurrence have to be kept neutral as a viewer of personal life.

3.Treating life as a test

Individuals do have the free will to define their life the way they wanted. It can be based on different parameters. According to the majority of religious scripts, individuals are instructed to treat life as a test. The lifespan on this earth is a period of trials and tests for the life hereafter. God theory is the prevalent and most accepted theory regarding the origin of life.

4.Change the habits

This is the crucial part where the result is determined. Building necessary habits and breaking the unnecessary as well as harmful habits are mandatory. The difficult part is its maintenance. Being persistent in following the desired routine is the game changer. In other words, it is the only practical way to overcome the emotional imbalance.

According to one of the best-selling self-help books ‘Atomic Habits,’ there are four stages to breaking and building habits.

Stage 1: cue

A cue is a signal that brings attention to an act as the first and foremost stage. It can be an object or an image that awakens the awareness of the individual to act.

For example, when Reena passthrough a clothing outlet and finds a beautiful dress displayed on the glass wall. She finds it pretty attractive and falls for the sign.

Stage 2: Craving

Craving is the desire to get done as an act. It’s a shaky moment wanting to possess or involve in action passionately. No compromise is endorsed other than following where the heart desire.

For example, a lot of people pass through the clothing outlet and notice the same dress. But Reena alone had a wild desire to possess it. She couldn’t help herself to let it go.

Stage 2: Response

It is the reaction toward the cue. It is the actions that favour the act to get it done. An individual’s exposure to a cue and his irresistible temptations alone won’t result in the performance of the act. It is the follow-up actions that allow response towards the stimulus. For example, Reena enters the store by walking into it. Then she searches for the fitting size. And then she checks the price and finds it affordable. Then she purchases it in exchange for money.

Stage 3: Rewards

The reward is the feeling of satisfaction or a favourable result an act offers. It is a determining factor for an act to become a habit.

For example, when Reena wore the dress she finds herself more gorgeous than expected. Such a feeling will motivate her to repeat purchases of similar types of clothing. If she had found herself ugly in such clothing then she wouldn’t have a feeling to purchase a similar type of clothing again.
