Our lives can be very connected to the moon. Just like the phases of the moon, everything keeps changing. Life is a moon of every emotion, every love, every struggle in phases. Nobody knows how to handle these phases better than the moon, because of the way the moon portrays light and darkness. The hardest of these phases is the low phase, where nothing feels right. You are tired and restless, maybe for no reason at all. This phase teaches you to handle emotions in life.
What does this do to you?
This phase can be very exhausting, and handling emotions can be very draining. It drains your energy to go on with the next phase. Never let this happen. Do not let this low phase disturb you or your inner peace. There are a few things that can be done to help you get through this low phase:
What am I supposed to do in this phase?
Spot your bad luck.
I strongly suggest you do this because it makes you aware of what is wrong or what can be changed in life. Counting your blessings will make you appreciate what you have, settle for less and lower your focus on bigger things. So, use this phase to sort out everything that is wrong, things that need work, and anything that has to be changed.
Develop new habits.
The low phase makes us vulnerable to learning new habits and revisiting old ones. Use this low phase to develop new habits and practises that you wish to adopt. This phase makes us much more prone to bad influences. However, this can be used as an efficient method of distraction to make it a point to improve ourselves.
Find a coping mechanism that works.
You are at high risk of giving up or returning to your low phase; find a healthy coping mechanism that works for you. Everyone is unique, and each one might find one or the other comforting. Find a strong reason to pursue and start practising these in your low phase.
Life is like the moon; everything is a phase. There are good, bad, and worst days too. It is how well you manage and enjoy life simultaneously. Do not completely ignore or distract yourself from this phase. You are going to go through hard times also. Remember: the way you handle your low phase is how well you handle life.
