Therapy

There are different forms of therapy I would suggest to overcome the mundane and every day routine that unemployment brings.  Besides the normal methods typically suggested, such as exercising, yoga, and writing in a journal, I will present you with this.  

I must warn you that you may be at risk of falling, if it not performed in a cautious manner.  
My suggestion; DANCING.  Singing in the shower is something that we all can admit to doing at some point.  Last week, as I was feeling a bit down and exhausted from the job searching on the computer, I decided to put some happy go lucky music on.  As the song “Don’t Worry Be Happy” filled the steamy bathroom, I became hypnotized by the words and the addictive upbeat whistling.  Before I knew it, I was two stepping in my tub, whistling and singing. While sporting my fluffy pink and purple robe,  I proceeded to rock out to a few more songs in front of my mirror.  The more I danced, not only did I realize how out of shape I am, more importantly,  I felt this rush of excitement and inspiration.  The  instruments were speaking to me with each note they played and a burst of energy hit my spirit.   
Give it a shot.  Do it naked, do it with clothes on, either way just dance and release the tension, anxieties, and worries that are weighing on you.

  1. Sarah, have you tried Zumba? I've done it twice and ABSOLUTELY love it! It challenges me to let go of the "omg I look like an a**" and is a great workout! I feel so energized afterwords, beyond just a normal workout. Highly recommended ;)
