Think intensely about a painful memory
Focus on a recent loss or disappointment
Stare without blinking for a short time
Yawn repeatedly to trigger tears
Rub your eyes gently
Use menthol-free onion fumes if available
Keep your eyes dry and tired
Breathe slowly through your mouth
Listen to emotional music
Watch a sad scene or memory
Lower your head and relax your face
Let yourself feel the emotion instead of resisting it
