You might be disappointed by something that happened, feel lonely after the ending of a relationship, be upset about losing your job, or even feel unhappy about the direction your life is headed in. Though it’s sometimes difficult to address, sadness is a completely natural emotion and one that plays a major part in our lives as human beings. The question then becomes how can we learn to cope with it in a healthy way?
