A good cry can really cleanse you.

Here is my guide to crying.

(A) Put on comfortable clothes and big, obnoxious fuzzy slippers

(B) Turn off all lights and light a candle

(C) Fling (and I do mean fling) yourself on the sofa in the most dramatic fashion possible (it might take a few flings to get this right, keep trying!)

(D) Put box of tissues on coffee table (get the good kind, with the lotion)

(E) Start crying. I don't mean a sniffle or two but let it rip

(F) Continue crying for 10-15 min. Be loud, let the snot fly, the mascara run.... if you are going to do this, do it right!

(G) Wipe nose/face, go to kitchen and have a glass of lemonade and two cookies. Crying is hard work and you will need a break and more energy!

(H) Walk back to couch like you are the saddest person alive.

(I) Fling body back on sofa (again, repeat if it is not dramatic enough)

(J) Cry more.

(K) Feel better.
