Just a Sigh

Let out a sigh and the body decompresses, releasing whatever we are holding onto. But is a sigh, just a sigh?

Well, researchers say that a sigh can be seen as an expression of overwhelm, boredom, disappointment, frustration, exhaustion.... So, when we sigh, we may be feeling one thing but we may be communicating something else. If you want to avoid being misinterpreted, maybe be more mindful of where you sigh. (I'm not saying you should suppress a sigh because sighing creates a sense of relief.)
