4 things to do when you feel sad.
1. Accept your feelings
Oftentimes, when I give this advice to anyone; the most frequently asked question is: How do I accept what is happening to me? If you do not accept your feelings, then you are creating a resistance around them, and that will make it worst because you can attract more of the same, and you don’t want that. In order to accept what you’re feeling, first, you need to acknowledge what’s going on and why things get to that point. Even if you are sad for no reason, there is a reason behind your sadness if that make sense. What I mean is that you don’t need a specific cause to be unhappy at the moment, but you know deep inside where the change is need it. You are accepting your sadness or worries by acknowledge them.
2. Feel it to the fullest
This could sound a little bit crazy but pay attention to what I am about to tell you. When you are able to feel your sadness profoundly; this one, will lose its power over you. There are different ways to feel emotions to the fullest:

Exchange your feelings. Try to upgrade to a higher emotion in the scale. I understand that you can’t go from unhappy to happy in a blink of an eye, but what you can do it’s to sense a superior one like, content or maybe a neutral feeling. You can accomplish that, by changing activities and here are some examples:
