- Distance yourself from your mood.
Moods are not the core of your being. Repeat a statement like this: "This mood isn't who I am and is only something I'm experiencing."
- Do something.
Moods have a way of paralyzing us. Acknowledge your mood, and then act anyway.
- Practice mindfulness.
Instead of fixating on your mood, use your senses to pull yourself out of your head, out of your funk, and into the present moment.
