Strategies

Strategies to take my mind of my loneliness
+ Lie on the floor/bed/grass and listen to music with my eyes closed;
+ Go for a walk outside and clear my head;
+ Think positively and remind myself of the greatness I've already achieved;
+ Have a cry if I need to;
+ Look at the pictures I have of my family;
+ Call friends of family for a boost;
+ Visit Joyce or Sam;
+ Plan something inspirational to do;
+ Go to a dance or photography class;
+ Get a hot chocolate and a pastry;
+ Go on a ferry ride to the beach, sit on the beach and meditate;
+ If it gets too much, go to Melbourne for a day or two to visit friends;
+ Book a trip back to Hobart and make plans;
+ Blog;
+ Go shopping off my closet need list;
+ Exercise.

I'm already getting a preview of the loneliness but being in Sydney on a great adventure in the sun will make all the difference. I'll be getting my own apartment, starting a new job and making a life for myself. I have to think of the positives. I'll add to this list when I'm there and find other things that help me get through emotional waves. I'll be okay.
