According to what was reported by “CNBC” CNBC American, many people live under unnecessary stress, and happy and healthy people are the ones who manage to get rid of those stresses and experiences that do not benefit them.

She explained that the habit that made her have a healthy and happy life is to get rid of those pressures, and the ability to invest in useful things such as relationships and career.

She pointed out that the happiest people are those who are able to determine the appropriate time to move forward, and not stick to things that may make them feel psychological pressure.

Expressive

And McGarry presented a prescription to get rid of the pressures of life, which included an exercise to heal and move forward, by playing some cheerful music and wandering around the area around your home, and letting your body move freely and smoothly while walking, and it may come to letting your body dance a little with the music.

After this mental preparation, you can move on to these three steps:

1- Identify something that makes you feel pressure and that you cannot remove from your life, it may be friendship, way of thinking, professional aspirations, or even a feeling of anger, or something else.

2- Imagine that you are able to hold these things in your fist. You may feel that your fist is narrowing. Squeeze those imagined things in your fist tightly.

3- To let it go away, move your hand back and forth and open your fingers slowly, before loosening your fist completely and getting rid of what is inside it.

She added that you can also repeat phrases that contain a meaning of great importance to you, such as “it does not matter” or similar phrases that are in line with what you think.

According to McGarry, once you are done, try to think for a moment and appreciate the psychological state you went through and imagine life flowing through you.

The elderly doctor also confirms that the happiest people she knew during her life, which spanned a century, were those who were able to determine the appropriate time to let go of the things that cause them stress.

She said that everyone makes mistakes, and gave the conclusion by saying: “Forgive yourself, and if necessary, ask forgiveness from others, and thus you can move forward in life.”
