第一篇：Peter的每日一篇英语文章之13
The hue and cry of Britain’s general electionobscures an inconvenient truth.The first peacetimecoalition since the 1930s is likely to be followed byanother inconclusive election.The old world of twoparty politics delivering decisive single partygovernment may be over.英国大选中的喧闹声掩盖了一个不好说出口的事实。英国自上世纪30年代以来首届诞生于和平时期的联合政府即将任满，但很可能再次迎来一场没有决定性结果的选举。两党政治产生行动果决的一党政府的旧世界或已终结。
David Cameron, prime minister, and Ed Miliband, theLabour party leader, still hope they can snatch outright victory on May 7.Voters appearunmoved.This has been a dispiriting campaign, where a few dozen swing constituencies havebeen targeted like battleground states in a US presidential election.For Cuyahoga County,Ohio, read Solihull, West Midlands.现任首相戴维•卡梅伦(David Cameron)和工党(Labour party)党魁埃德•米利班德(Ed Miliband)仍然希望在5月7日的选举中取得全面胜利。选民看上去无动于衷。这是一场令人沮丧的竞选，几十个摇摆选区就像美国总统选举中的摇摆州一样，被各党派激烈争夺。你只用把西米德兰兹郡(West Midlands)的索利哈尔(Solihull)，想象成俄亥俄州的凯霍加县(Cuyahoga)。
A tactical, data-driven campaign mobilising core supporters ignores how Tony Blair and, morerecently, Angela Merkel in Germany reached out to the centre ground and won three successiveelections.The lesson should still hold true in Britain, despite the fragmentation of politicsrepresented by the rise of the Scottish National party and the europhobic UK Independenceparty.这场竞选讲究策略、依赖数据，动员核心支持者，而忽略了前英国首相托尼•布莱尔(Tony Blair)以及德国现任总理安格拉•默克尔(Angela Merkel)走中间路线连续三次赢得选举的经验。这一经验在英国应该仍然管用，尽管苏格兰民族党(SNP)和恐欧的英国独立党(UKIP)崛起使英国政坛碎片化。
Five years ago, the prospect of coalition government attracted dire predictions of instability inmarkets and gridlock at Westminster.Neither proved true.The Conservative-Liberal Democratcoalition has shown European-style cohabitation can work.Curiously, Mr Cameron has nottrumpeted its successes.He has preferred to wage a campaign of fear.Labour, he argues,would prove untrustworthy on the economy;and a Labour government would be held hostageby a separatist Scottish National party.The risk of a cross-border leftist alliance is notnegligible;but even some Tories worry that its invocation encourages English nationalism.5年前曾流传一种悲观预言，认为联合政府上台将导致市场动荡，议会也将陷入僵局。这两点都没有成真。保守党与自民党(The Liberal Democrats)的结盟证明了欧洲式的联合执政行得通。奇怪的是，卡梅伦并未大肆宣扬联合政府的成功。他选择打“恐惧”牌。他提出，工党的经济政策不可靠；工党政府将被奉行独立的苏格兰民族党绑架。出现一个跨境左翼联盟的风险不可忽视，但就连一些保守党人也担心，总提这一点将会助长英格兰的民族主义情绪。
Labour’s campaign has also played relentlessly to its core vote.Mr Miliband has belatedlysigned up to balance the budget in the next parliament.Fearful of public sector unions, he hasnot specified where heavy spending cuts would fall.He has rarely met a market he did notconsider to be broken.Only Nick Clegg, the embattled Liberal Democrat leader, has occupiedthe centre ground.He has argued persuasively that the Lib Dems contributed to sensiblefiscal consolidation and tempered the wilder Tory impulses, particularly on Europe.工党在竞选活动中也不遗余力地争取核心选民。米利班德承诺在下届议会推动预算平衡，尽管他这么说有点晚了。因为担心遭到公共部门工会的反对，他没有具体阐明削减开支的重头戏将落在哪里。很少有一个市场在他看来是不失灵的。占据中间道路的只有眼下处境不妙的自民党党魁尼克•克雷格(Nick Clegg)。他令人信服地指出，自民党促进了合理的财政整固，缓和了保守党一些较为疯狂的冲动，特别是在欧洲问题上。
The Financial Times has no fixed party political allegiances, but we have a clear vision of thepriorities for the next administration.英国《金融时报》没有固定支持某个党派，但我们清晰地看到了下一届政府应优先处理的问题。
The economic challenge goes beyond cutting public spending.The government must supportenterprise and job creation.The dependence on credit-fuelled consumer spending andLondon-based financial services must be reduced.Britain’s productivity gap must benarrowed, by long-delayed investment in infrastructure, education and housing.A newconstitutional settlement is needed, one that preserves the union and transfers powersrationally and fairly to the nations and regions of the UK.On Europe, it is time for constructiveengagement.A new relationship would recognise the UK is not part of the monetary core butis still a vital member of the European family of nations.经济方面的挑战不止是削减公共支出。政府必须支持企业和就业创造。必须减少对信贷推动的消费者支出和以伦敦为中心的金融服务业的依赖。必须落实推迟已久的基础设施、教育和住房投资，以缩小英国的生产力差距。此外还需要达成新的宪制协议，保留英国各民族之间的联盟，同时将权力合理、公平地下放给各民族和地区。至于欧洲问题，英国是时候采取建设性参与的态度了。与欧洲的新关系将承认英国不属于核心欧元区，但仍然是欧洲大家庭的关键成员。
The choice is therefore between a dynamic, flexible and open economy delivering higher livingstandards for all, and a pinched nationalism that clings to the past.Little England or GreatBritain.因此，我们有两个选择，一个是成为有活力、灵活、开放的经济体，让全体国民享有更高的生活水平，另一个是成为奉行民族主义、经济窘困、留恋过去的国家。这就是选择成为小英格兰还是大不列颠的问题。
The UK is in far better shape than in 2010.Growth has picked up sharply.The numbers ofthose in work are at an all-time high.About 2m new jobs have been created.But austerityspells a joyless recovery and the public finances remain fragile.The deficit is shrinking to anexpected 4 per cent of national output this year.This is still too high but better than the near12 per cent when the coalition took over.当前英国经济形势比2010年要好得多。经济增长明显加快。就业人数创下历史纪录。新增就业岗位约200万个。但紧缩政策意味着复苏将是缺乏喜色的，公共财政也仍然脆弱。预计今年赤字将缩减为国民产出的4%。这仍然偏高，但联合政府刚上台时这个比例接近12%。
Britain needs a strong economy to fund the National Health Service and an ageing population.But a strong economy alone does not guarantee political stability.Today, the integrity of theUnited Kingdom remains at stake.The failure of the Scottish National party to win lastSeptember’s referendum on independence ought to have settled the issue for a generation.But if the SNP wins most of the 59 seats in Scotland, it could hold the balance of power atWestminster.At the very least, this will complicate new constitutional arrangements betweenEngland, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland;at worst, it could stoke separatist fire northand south of the river Tweed.英国需要强劲的经济，来为国民卫生服务体系(NHS)和日益老龄化的人口提供资金。但仅凭强劲的经济无法保证政治稳定。眼下，联合王国的完整仍面临威胁。苏格兰民族党未能在去年9月的独立公投中取胜，这应该意味着至少二三十年内无须再担心苏独问题。但如果苏格兰民族党赢得苏格兰的大部分议席（共59个），它可能成为英国议会中的一支重要力量。至少，这种情况会让英格兰、苏格兰、威尔士和北爱之间的新宪制安排更加复杂；在最坏的情况下，它可能让特威德河（River Tweed，苏格兰与英格兰的界河——译者注）南北的独立主义火焰烧得更旺。
The second constitutional question turns on Europe.Should the Conservatives win an outrightmajority, Mr Cameron has pledged to re-negotiate the terms of UK membership and hold anin-out referendum within two years.His move threatens to consume the first two years of aTory government.It could ultimately push Britain out of the bloc, a seismic change in thecountry’s relationship with its chief trading partners and for the balance of power in the EUitself.It might also break the Tory party.第二个宪制问题则是关于欧洲的。卡梅伦已经承诺，假如保守党获得绝对多数票，他将重新就英国作为欧盟成员的条款进行谈判，并在两年内就英国是否留在欧盟举行全民公投。他的举动可能会耗去保守党政府的头两年任期。此举可能最终推动英国脱离欧盟，彻底改变英国与其主要贸易伙伴的关系、以及欧盟内部的力量平衡。此举还可能导致保守党分裂。The preoccupation with Europe obscures a more troubling development.Britain’s standing inthe world has diminished.Her Majesty’s armed forces have shrunk, and her diplomats reducedto handing out export brochures for business.把注意力放在欧洲问题上，掩盖了一个更令人不安的变化。英国在世界的地位下降了。女王陛下的军队缩小了，她的外交官也沦落到帮企业派发出口宣传册的地步。
Two bloody wars of choice, in Afghanistan and Iraq, have carried a high price.Politicians on theleft and right are increasingly looking inward.In Europe’s first post-cold war crisis in Ukraine, MrCameron has been a bystander, despite the UK being a signatory to the 1994 BudapestMemorandum covering Ukraine’s nuclear disarmament and territorial integrity.His insistenceon spending 0.7 per cent on overseas aid sits ill with his refusal to commit to 2 per cent of GDPfor the military.在阿富汗和伊拉克，英国参与了两场不是非打不可的流血战争，付出了惨重代价。为此左右翼人士都日益把目光转向国内事务。英国是1994年《布达佩斯安全备忘录》(Budapest Memorandum)的签字国，备忘录内容包括乌克兰将放弃核武，而其他签字国会捍卫乌克兰的领土完整。但在乌克兰发生欧洲冷战后的第一场危机时，卡梅伦袖手旁观。他坚持海外援助支出应达到GDP的0.7%，但拒绝承诺军费支出至少要达到2%，这两点形成了鲜明反差。
The Conservatives’ economic record ought to provide a winning hand.The mix of a loosemonetary policy and a tight fiscal policy has worked.Mr Cameron and his chancellor GeorgeOsborne, supported by Mr Clegg, showed political courage to tackle the public finances andshrink the state.The Tories have also driven two promising shifts in Britain’s politicaldiscourse: the challenge to the benefits culture and the re-introduction of much-neededrigour into the country’s schools.保守党在经济方面的过往表现理应是它的优势。宽松货币政策与紧缩财政政策的组合拳行之有效。卡梅伦和财政大臣乔治•奥斯本(George Osborne)展现出政治魄力，去解决公共财政问题、缩小政府规模，而克莱格也支持他们的做法。保守党还推动英国的政治辩论中出现了两个有益变化：对福利文化的挑战，以及在英国的学校中重新推行严格的纪律。Labour has been more competitive than expected.Mr Miliband has been vilified by the Tories,but he has stuck to his guns on Europe, refusing to cave in to demands for a referendum.Hiswillingness to stand his ground deserves credit.工党的竞争力已超出预期。米利班德不断受到保守党人诋毁，但他坚持自己对欧洲的看法，拒绝向公投要求让步。他这种坚守立场的态度值得赞扬。
Yet this cannot conceal the fundamental weakness in Labour’s plans.Mr Miliband ispreoccupied with inequality.His prescription is an increase in taxes such as restoring the 50plevel for high earners and imposing an ill-conceived mansion tax.然而这无法掩盖工党竞选纲领中的根本性弱点。米利班德专注于社会不平等现象，他的策略是增加税收，比如恢复高收入者50%的所得税，以及实行考虑欠妥的豪宅税。
Mr Miliband has too often found himself on the wrong side of the argument.He promised tofreeze energy prices shortly before world prices collapsed.An already heavily regulatedbanking sector and private landlords are now in his sights.He has stepped too far away fromthe New Labour position that markets can be harnessed to progressive outcomes.At times,he appears to be fighting his campaign in the style of France’s François Hollande in 2012.True,Mr Hollande secured victory but at the price of a weak economy and an exodus of talent, oftento London.米利班德常常发现自己言论失当。他刚承诺要“冻结”能源价格，国际能源价格就开始暴跌。现在他的目光又投向已受到严格监管的银行业以及私营业主。“新工党”认为可以让市场发挥积极作用，而米利班德偏离这一立场太远了。有时他的竞选方式似乎复刻了2012年时法国的弗朗索瓦•奥朗德(François Hollande)。诚然，奥朗德赢得了胜利，但代价是经济疲弱以及人才外流——通常流到伦敦。
At this delicate moment, the best outcome would be a continuation of the 2010 coalitionbetween the Conservatives and Lib Dems.Mr Clegg’s party has proved a responsible partner ingovernment.Tough decisions, such as the reversal of his party’s stance on university tuitionfees, will hurt the party.The Lib Dems would be more awkward in a second term coalition.It isalso far from clear whether they will have enough seats to be kingmakers with either the Toriesor Labour.在这个微妙的时刻，最好的结局将是延续2010年保守党和自民党的联盟。克雷格领导的自民党已证明是负责任的执政伙伴。但在一些棘手问题上的决定可能会伤害到自民党，比如该党在大学学费方面立场的转变。自民党在第二个执政联盟中将更加尴尬。而且目前也不能确定他们是否将拿下足够席位来辅佐保守党或工党。
Voters must decide not just on the party but also on the combination which would have thebest chance of forming a stable, reform-minded government.The country would benefit fromthe countervailing force of Lib Dem moderation at Westminster.In seats where the Lib Demsare the incumbent or the main challenger, we would vote tactically for them.选民们要选择的不仅是政党，还有政党联盟，推断哪些党派最有可能组建一个稳定的、具备改革意识的政府。自民党在议会中的抗衡力量将令英国受益。对于自民党人有希望保留或拿下的席位，我们会策略性地将票投给他们。
Ultimately, however, there is only one leader and one party that can head the government.There are risks in re-electing Mr Cameron’s party, especially on Europe.But there are greaterrisks in not doing so.Its instincts on the economy, business and reform of public services arebroadly right.Mr Miliband has not offered a credible economic prospectus and would apply abrake on enterprise.In the circumstances, the FT would like to see a Conservative-ledadministration.不过，归根结底只能有一名领袖、一个政党来领导英国政府。重选卡梅伦领导的保守党是有风险的，尤其在欧洲问题上，但不选他的风险更大。保守党在经济、商业以及公共服务改革方面的思路大致正确。米利班德没有拿出经济方面可信的的施政纲领，还将实施阻碍企业发展的政策。在这种情况下，英国《金融时报》希望见到一个由保守党领导的政府。

第三篇：PETER PAN 彼得·潘 英语读书笔记
Book Report Of PETER PAN
I spent one month reading the English book PETER PAN.To be honest, it is the first original English novel I have read about and it's really a tough job, though the language of this novel is not so hard.Peter Pan is the boy who won’t grow up,with the spirit of youth and adventure.He enjoys flying about, fighting with captain Hook, being a hero and having fun.He travels from Never Land to London just to hear Wendy Darling tell stories about him and his adventures.While he may think highly of himself at times, even his enemy Captain Hook, knows that Pan’s not an ordinary boy.He can fly without wings and fight Hook just with a dagger.He’s also the leader of the Lost Boys, and allows no change in the ranks not even for his best girl, Tinker Bell the fairy.When she doesn’t listen to him, Peter banishes her forever.Because he doesn't quite know how long the “forever” is.Only after Wendy reminds him that forever is a long time，does he reduce it to a week.Either way, time makes little difference to him.Life is nothing but fun, all kinds of ideas and adventures when you never grow up.To some degree, PETER PAN reads like The Green' Fairy Tales.Peter, Wendy and other characters are similar to our young brothers and sisters.When Peter introduces his “children” to Wendy, he says “All look your best, first impression is awfully important!” It surprises me that a little boy who wont grow up should say such serious words!In chapter thirteen,evil Hook abducts Wendy, a girl he appreciates so much.He is determined to save her out.He swears “Hook or me this time.” Here, the author gives us a rich description, which really makes the scenes splendid!Especially the scene of Pan's sweet and peaceful sleep before he starts the dangerous save plan and the scene of his fierce fight against Hook.Reading this, I see a real man, having his own feelings and principles, stands in front of me, rather than a fictional one.“Hook or me this time” are the very words touch me deeply.Because it reflects Peter Pan's great courage and determination.Tough these words came out from a kid's mouth, it shocks adults.It reminds us that whatever difficult we may meet, if friends are in trouble, we can never run away!As a saying goes, a friend in need is a friend in deed!
A famous poet once described life in his poem like this: It's a long long journey.Till I know where I'm supposed to be.It's a long long journey, till I find the way home.Many days I've spent, wondering what is my purpose, wondering how to make myself strong.I know I will falter.I know I will cry.In the movie FORREST GUMP , Gump's wise mother always says “Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get”.Both of the two kinds of imagery show the uncertainty of life.Of course, nobody will go over his or her lifetime totally propitious.In stead, we come across lots of accidents and it seems that, the more adversities we experience, the bigger possibility we succeed, like Chairman Mao,Edison and Columbus, etc.We can compare misfortunes in our life to the evil Captain Hook.When Captain Hook poisons Peter Pan to death, “His hands shook, but it was in exultation rather than in shame”.We must not give in when misfortunes stand before us;we must not give “evil Hook” the chance to be jaunty!All we need to do is just to give it a deathblow like a strong boxer alwaysdo to his adversary.Finishing reading PETER PAN, I'm lost in thought.Is there anybody who cares about the people and the environment around so much just like Pan and Wendy? Maybe you have heard about the horrible fire breaking out in our school not long ago.I was doing some washing when I suddenly heard someone shouted “Fire!There, the fire!” I ran back to dormitory as soon as possible and dialed 119.Something made me feel disappointed that only few students took it serious while the mostly were just watching, even laughing as if it was a Mr Bean's comedy.What if there were someone in the firing building, feeling totally horrible and thinking of his or her death time? Or in that windy night, what if the fire became bigger and bigger and out of control at the end ? They are adults with independent and mature thinking.Could not they think about these ?
Perhaps, it is what James Barrie(the author)really wants to say.He created Peter and Wendy and gived them the features of kids as well as that much precious character.At the same time, James created Pan's
enemy, the evil captain Hook, an adult despicable, foolish and selfish.We can see the comparison and the lampoon obviously.Perhaps, not only we students, but also the adults should read this meaningful and interesting masterpiece.

第五篇：每日英语
【职场英语】白手起家必备秘籍
How to Really Start a Business(or Why You Don’t Need Money to Make Money)创业之道——赚钱无需花钱
Everyone has excuses about why they can’t(actually won’t)earn more money.A common excuse is, ―I need money to make money‖.对于为什么不能（实际上是不去）挣更多钱，每个人都有自己的理由。其中最常见的要数：―想创业挣钱，我得先有足够的钱‖。
You and I know that’s a myth(you do know that’s a myth, right?), but most people take it as a truism.你我都知晓这个理由并不是真的（你不会不知道吧？），但大多数人却把它当作真理。
A lot of people think they need tens of thousands of dollars to get in on a franchise, or put cash down for a rental property, or buy into some silly multilevel marketing scheme.许多人认为他们需要一大笔资金去获得特许经营权，或是支付租金，亦或是引入荒诞的多层级营销方案。
The fact is, there are plenty of ways to make money without the need for a pile of cash — as Chris Guillebeau’s recent book, The $100 Startup, covers.The first step is to realize that there are always multiple solutions to any problem, whether it’s making more money, building your retirement nest egg/strongbox, or bartering for broccoli.但实际上，有很多方法既可以赚钱，又无需大把原始资金，就像克里斯·古里博的新书《100美元起家》所描述的那样。第一步是要意识到凡事总有多种解决之道，无论是赚更多的钱、为日后养老储备资金、还是与人交换西兰花。
Must-have tools for creating a business on the cheap are:
白手起家必备秘籍：
• A bootstrapping mindset: How can you get or do something for free or extremely low cost? Again, creative brainstorming and flexible thinking will help you figure out how to accomplish a task on a shoestring.Check out some more specific bootstrapping principles to get you started.• 步步为营：怎样才能白手起家呢？创造性思维、灵活应变的能力都可以让你以极少的钱完成任务。再多找些具体的步步为营法则看看，让自己顺利起步吧。（注：Bootstrapping来自于20世纪初期美国流传的一句―提着鞋带把自己举起来‖的谚语，其本质就是一种步步为营、循序渐进的思想，指的是创业者在资源有限的条件下，发掘机会，创建新事业并实现价值。）• Small steps and a willingness to experiment: This is the iterative, lean startup approach, where you try something small & fast, learn from it, and improve.What? You haven’t heard of the lean startup approach? Well, start reading up on it.It’ll save you from wasting time and money, and reduce startup frustration and misery.• 脚踏实地，勇于尝试：这一环节，创业者所要做的就是重复的精益创业。在此期间，创业者可以做各种小而快的尝试，从中获取经验和教训，提升自己的实力。什么？你竟然没听说过―精益创业‖？好吧，那么先好好钻研一番吧。你的时间和金钱将不再被浪费，起步的挫折与痛苦将会减轻。（注：lean startup以一个远景假设为出发点，通过快速、低成本的验证方式，验证产品与市场的契合度，不断迭代并及时调整方向。）
• Market validation: Again, from the lean startup/customer development paradigm, make sure that you’re offering something that people want and will pay for.What what? You haven’t heard of customer development either? Not a problem.There’s great info out there to get you started.• 市场调研：同样地，从精益创业/发展客户范式入手，确保你所提供的产品是有需求的，客户是愿意付钱买的。什么什么？你也没听说过发展客户？关于这方面的信息可是有很多呢，你可以了解后再开始创业。
With all that said, you’ll also need to recognize your barriers to actually starting down the road of entrepreneurship.Here’s a list of the top 4 excuses people give for not making more money:
除了上述所说，你还需要认识一些创业路上的―障碍物‖。以下便是其中四种最常见的不愿赚钱的借口：
No time一无时间No money二无资金No expertise三无专业技能No ideas四无想法
When you reflect on why you haven’t started exploring how to earn more money, probably every one of your barriers(excuses!)falls into one of the above categories.You might say to yourself: 当你沉思自己为何还没开始探索挣钱的方法时，没准你的理由（借口！）就是上述四种里的一种。你也许会自言自语道：
• ―Starting a business is too complicated.‖ Nope.That’s the ―no expertise‖ excuse.• ―创业太复杂了。‖ 其实不然。说实话，这个理由真是太不专业了。

Starting and building a successful business takes hard work.But since you’re reading this, you and I both know you have an urge for something better.You daydream at work about quitting your job.You curse your commute and wish you could ditch your day job.You feel stuck at a job you hate.成功的事业在开始建立的过程中，不下苦功夫是肯定不行的。但是鉴于你都已经阅读到此，你那份憧憬着更美好事物的急切心情也已经显而易见。也许你在工作时会想象自己离职的画面，你咒骂着每天往返耗时之久，渴望有朝一日能摆脱这种生活。这份讨厌的工作让你不知所措。
While starting a business may not solve all your problems, it can give you a completely new worldview that’s empowering and full of possibilities.It took me a long time to get past my mental barriers and excuses before I started my own business, but when I began taking action, I started seeing things change.A few years down the road, I earn much more, have more financial security, more flexibility, and have no reason to complain about work.It’s been an amazing turnaround.也许创业并不能解决你所有的问题，但是它会带给你全新的世界观，使你更有主见，也带给你无限可能。就我而言，在创业之前，光破除心理的藩篱就耗费了我大量时间。但是当我决定付诸行动之时，我惊觉很多事情在发生改变。数年之后，我赚了不少钱，经济上有了更多的保障，处事也更加灵活多变，对工作的抱怨自然也就烟消云散了。难道说这个转变还不能称得上神奇吗？

Some days it seems like everything is going wrong.On these days the world looks gray, bleak and barren.Other days, maybe everything is going right.But you’re still miserable.You don’t always have to understand why you’re in a bad mood in order to change it.These seven strategies can help.1.Get outside.Being in nature can help to lift your mood and even lull your nervous system.For instance, this 2010 studyfound that ―forest environments promote lower concentrations of cortisol, lower pulse rate, lower blood pressure, greater parasympathetic nerve activity, and lower sympathetic nerve activity than do city environments.‖
So when you wake up on the wrong side of the bed, try visiting a park or body of water, suggests Darlene Mininni, Ph.D, MPH, author ofThe Emotional Toolkit.Or bring nature indoors by surrounding yourself with plants and flowers, getting a water fountain for your desk or getting a
fish tank.2.Listen to music.―Get out your absolute favorite grouchy, wallowy music and relish in tunes that match your mood for as long as it feels good, ‖ suggestsAshley Eder, LPC, a psychotherapist in Boulder, CO.Then when you start feeling better, adjust your music to fit your brighter feelings, she said.The opposite can also help.According to Mininni, if you’re upset, try listening to uplifting music.If you’re anxious or worried about something, try listening to soothing music, she said.This study found that listening to classical music for just 10 minutes minimized participants’ negative moods.Other research found that listening to music lowered blood pressure, heart rate and levels of the stress hormone cortisol.(This study found these effects in 54 nurses who listened to soothing music for 30 minutes.)
Combining calming tunes with slow breathing also might help.Thisresearch found that participants with high blood pressure who listened to 30 minutes of classic, Celtic or Indian music while performing breathing exercises had significantly lower blood pressure than those who didn’t.3.Embody your bad mood.―Ask your bad mood how it wants to move and honor its impulses in safe — but sometimes messy — ways like smashing eggs, breaking old dishes, ripping up paper, or punching pillows, ‖ Eder said.4.Tune into your murky mood.―Try getting quiet and asking the cranky part of yourself what it’s upset about, ‖ said Eder.In other words, instead of fighting with your feelings, figure out what you need.Let your mood be your messenger, she said.―Sometimes just honoring the impulse to have some alone-time, get more sleep, ask for help with something, or take space in a relationship is what you need to feel more at peace, ‖ Eder said.5.Assume control.People who feel like they have some control over their lives are happier than people who feel powerless, Mininni said.If there’s a particular situation that’s bothering you, identify the elements youcan control, she said.For instance, if your partner is sick, learn more about their condition, she said.But even the smallest things count.Sometimes the only thing you might be able to control is your wakeup time, and that’s important, too, she said.6.Engage in activities that honor your natural temperament.If you’re an introvert, Eder suggested carving out alone time.If you’re an extrovert, she suggested talking to a friend or being anywhere with people like a coffee shop.A bit of both? ―Schedule a time-limited activity with a person who consistently feels nourishing, followed by uninterrupted downtime, ‖ she said.7.Ride out your bad mood.Some days no matter the tactics you try, you still feel bad.If that’s the case, ―Acknowledge it, befriend it, and wait, ‖ Eder said.―Give yourself permission to make yourself comfortable, whether that means watching old episodes of Gossip Girl, playing Angry Birds, or by taking a nap, ‖ she said.Remember that ―It’s OK to have a bad day, and it’ll pass, ‖ Eder said.
