英语美文,改善心绪的方法The way to lift up your mood
The Everyone has periods in their lives when everything seems very hard, when
there’s nobody to talk to and the mood is just getting worse and worse. But
why sit and think howpathetic you are? There are some things that may help you
lift up your mood. If it fails you, at least while doing these things you won
’t have time to think of your problems. You win anyway!
每一个人在其生活当中，都有这样的一个时期：一切事都是那么不顺心，没有人可以交流，心绪变得越来越糟糕。但是，为什么你坐在这儿总是想着你是多么的可怜呢？这儿有些方法能帮助你改善你的心绪。假如这些方法都不起作用的话，至少，当你在做这些事的时候，你就没有时间来想你的问题。无论如何，我们是赢家！
The first thing you should try is socializing and thinking positively. It
’s very hard, because usually when we feel depressed we lock ourselves at
home and try to think about all the bad character issues we have. But if you’
ll try to force yourself and call a friend for a cup of coffee, the chances
for changing your mood into better are very good. Just try to avoid bad
thoughts. Instead, try to think only about the bright side of your life. Don’
t forget: We are what we think we are.
第一件事就是：你应该融入人群并想积极的方面。这很难，因为通常当我们感到失望时，我们就会把自己锁在家里，试图想着我们自身的不好的品质。但是，如果你强迫你自己邀请朋友一起去喝一杯咖啡，让自己有个机会去改变心绪，这是非常好的。避免坏的想法，相反，你应该想象你生活中那些精彩的一面，不要忘了：我们是我们所想象成的那样。
You should also try doing something only for yourself, something totally
selfish. This could be something you wanted for a long time: maybe a short
trip, a coat, a ring or anything that could lift up your mood. This doesn’t
have to be extravagant nor costly. The point of all this is being good to
yourself.
你应该做一些专门为你自己做的事，完全是为你自己的。这可能是你一段时间以来你所想要的东西：可能是短途旅行、一件衣服、一个戒指或者是任何能改善你心绪的东西。
这不必是非常奢侈的，也不必是非常昂贵的，只要它们有对你有好处的一面。
Not only giving presents to yourself can lift up your mood. Buying things
to others may be a perfect way to feel happy. Think of your friends, family,
relatives or even local charities，choose one person and give him a gift. It
doesn’t have to be something expensive nor big. It may be just a little toy
to your poor neighbor’s child. Making another person feel happy will make you
feel good in your heart and mind.
买礼物给自己不仅仅能改善你的心绪，买东西给别人也是一个使你感到高兴的极好方法。想想你的朋友、家庭、亲戚，甚至当地的慈善机构，选择一个人并给他买礼物。这不必是什么昂贵的或大的东西。这也可能是给家庭贫困的邻居的小孩买的一个小玩具。使他人高兴也能快乐自己。
Renting a good or happy film is always a good idea. Laughter is a very
good panacea for all kinds of illness!

Meeting a positive person should be very useful. Just try to keep your
problems off the conversation. The idea here is to get out of your shell and
have some interaction. Get involved with someone else and your mind will take
a turn as well.
与一个积极的人交流也是有用的，在谈话中避开你的问题。这个理念就是：走出你自己的圈子并与他人多些交流。多与他人在一起，你的观点和想法也会转变的。
Most bad moods and mental attitudes are the result of something that had
happened to us in the past. It is vital to your mind, soul, body and your life

possible way.

people, understanding that each of them also has days like this should force

If you have too much time—volunteer it. We usually think that the
problems we have are huge, although if you’ll try to go to hospital，you’ll

you’ll see that people are still working, smiling, and laughing. This kind of
work will definitely help you understand that your problems are very small and
maybe even funny.
如果你有很多的时间，去做志愿者吧。我们通常认为我们的问题是非常巨大的，一旦你去了医院，你将会看到这儿有许多的人，他们的问题更严重。然而，这些人仍然在工作、在开心地笑。你将会认识到你的问题是多么渺小和多么可笑。

your mood.
