6 Tips to Get in Touch With Your Feelings

4. Read men’s magazines and other men’s literature

Many men think that reading men’s magazines and other literature tarnishes their masculinity. But this is far from the truth as magazines only help men in being more open about themselves. By reading about stories and experiences of other men, you may connect to your own experiences in an honest way. Men’s magazines also contain advice and tips about many everyday situations. Reading this will make you realize that you are not the only man in the world who is struggling with your emotions.

5. Spend more time alone

Are you a party animal? Do you go out with your buddies very frequently? Is there always someone or the other at your place? If your answer to all these questions is yes, it means that you hardly ever spend time with yourself. Get away from your friends, colleagues, parties, gizmos and television set for a few hours. Spend time with yourself to hear the voice of your mind and heart. Think about your life experiences, loved ones and dreams. You will feel more connected to yourself if you spend time alone frequently.

6. Seek help before you face a breakdown

If you are already aware of the fact that you cannot express yourself properly or you are having difficulty being honest about your feelings, exercise caution beforehand. Don’t let your feelings pile up in your heart. When your heart feels heavy and you think you may face a breakdown, seek help from a friend or a counselor. Such people can help you to understand your feelings and be more open about them.
