Feeling low and depressed? If you want to be able to instantly access a good mood, try this technique from life coach Rebekah Fensome.
感覺心情低落憂鬱？如果你想迅速擁有好心情，試試生活教練Rebekah Fensome的小妙招吧。
If you suffer from 'mood dips', mood swings, or spend a lot of time feeling low and depressed, then try a simple technique to access a happier mood, called the 'finger click'.
如果你正遭受心情低谷、情緒低落、或長時間的沉鬱，那就試試打響指吧，這是一個擁有好心情的簡單方法。
First, access some memories that make you feel happy and content - perhaps quality time with a partner, or a great holiday with friends or family. You may find it easier to access these memories if you close your eyes. Now write these memories down on paper, which will cement them in your mind.
首先，想象一些使你高興或滿足的記憶-也許是和搭檔的黃金時間，亦或是和家人朋共度假日。你會發現閉上眼睛更容易回憶。現在把這些記憶寫在紙上，這可以在你腦中加深印象。
Next, start to associate these memories to the act of clicking your fingers. You will need to repeat the process a number of times, but eventually you should be able to access the happy and content feelings simply by clicking your fingers.
其次，一邊想象這些美好的回憶一邊打響指。你需要重複回憶，但最終你可以通過簡單的打響指獲得心靈的寬慰與愉悅。
