When home is far away, the sense of ease and belonging that so many people feel can transform into painful feelings of longing, commonly known as homesickness. Along with feelings of insecurity, loss of control and nervousness, physical effects, including sleep issues, tiredness and loss of appetite, are also caused by homesickness. 1.Check them out below:

●Realize that feeling homesick is 100 percent normal.

Almost everyone experiences homesickness when moving to a new place—some people might just be better at hiding it. 2.Homesickness is a normal and evolutionarily healthy reaction.

●Make connections with new people in comfortable settings.

Feeling homesick when separated from loved ones motivates people to be with those supportive people. 3. When making new connections, it's best to stick to the style that works for you in order to ease homesickness.

4.

This point is vital and also one of the hardest to accomplish. Self-compassion is loving yourself just as you love the ones you care about. The most important step in practicing self-compassion is substituting negative, critical and, sometimes, automatic thoughts about yourself with thoughts that are more supportive and kind.

●Keep tabs on your negativity.

It's also useful to ask yourself how much of your homesickness is due to an event, such as being separated from loved ones, and how much is from how you're understanding a situation.5.A positive outlook on a situation can do wonders for your mood, but it often can be hard to practice. You can silence negative thoughts in many ways, including reciting positive mantras(禱文), keeping a journal or even taking a walk in a park.

If you're dealing with feelings of homesickness, remember you're not alone. Even though there's no place like home, give yourself some time and care, and you might find yourself falling in love with a new place.

A. Learn to help others.

B. Practice self-compassion.

C. Being homesick is abnormal.

D. Being homesick is not a sign of personal shortcoming.

E. We gathered a few psychologist-backed tips to help ease homesickness.

F. Taking a step back is recommended, instead of falling into the trap of a negative outlook.

G. But keep in mind that everyone is different when it comes to forming those new relationships.

If you know the tale(故事) of the hare(野兔) and the tortoise(烏龜).you’ll remember that the tortoise won the race against the hare. In this age of speed with immediate Internet communication and fast travel, it’s time to just slow down the pace(步伐).

Slow food

The slow food movement began in Italy in the mid-1980s because some people thought that fast food culture was causing the traditional Italian way of life to disappear. The movement believes that we should enjoy mealtimes as a pleasure while also understand more about where your food comes from. A key approach(方法) to slow food is taking your time when eating. For example, by waking up ten minutes earlier than usual you have more time to get ready so you don’t have to rush your breakfast.

Slow exercise

Measured exercises such as yoga(瑜伽) are relaxing and focus on(關(guān)注) breathing. Deep breathing is a good way to help you feel calm. Try slowing your breathing down to 10-12 deep breaths every minute. Breathe in slowly and deeply into the bottom of your lungs (肺). Stop for a moment, and then breathe out slowly. As you breathe out, allow your body to relax.

Slow communication

The wide use of the Internet has meant communication has never been faster. We are able to send an email to someone of the other side of the world as quickly as to the person sitting next to us. While this change is unbelievable, the amount of information we receive each day through mobiles and the Internet can be distracting (令人分心的).
