I meditate (think, to understand, to exercise the mind) and mederi (heal).

And how do you do it… just watching what you feel, feeling the emotions, trying to identify, accepting, doing inner dialogue asking why you feel this, how can you change that? How would it be if everything was fine in my life? What can I do for myself to pacify myself? What gives me joy in my life? What can I do to free myself from what saddens me? What emotions take over me? What can I do to get rid of negativity? What in my life bothers me, and what can I do to change? etc. Each person must find his way and methods to be able to pacify, release and use his energy constructively in his life, instead of using it to criticize, demoralize, defeat, etc.
