What do you do to clear your mind?

I am weathering a giant sh*t storm right now and could use some insight and/or tips for relaxing. What do you guys do?

I dissect the problem down to it's smallest part and then analyse the individual parts from all angles and the envison every single outcome. I then reconstruct the problem and choose the best solution and set forth to make it happen.

That's how I relax when I have a problem to deal with.

Wow, yes. It's sometimes hard to stop and relax right? Espacially for Cappy who likes to take controll.
For me it is even difficult to stop thinking about something, my mind is constantly working. I tried to meditate lot of times and failed. Completely failed.

What i do now when i am completely alone i put on crazy music and dance. Dance hard and don't stop until i am exhasuted and can't breath. And suddenly i realise i stopped thinking and i can only focus on breathing.

There is a forest near me, i used to ask my good friend to walk with me. We just walk silently together. It works like, i give myself two hours to take a break from work. And if i would be alone, i couldn't do it and my mind would work, but because i am with a friend i can't cheat with my mind, so we just walk, or talk about very relaxing things.

Also creating different things, drawing painting helps me.
Don't forget regular body exercises, gives you strenght and balance between body and soul.

Hope i helped, and everything will work out. 🙂

Most importantly. Think about the worst what can happen, and know theat you will stand up, it can never break you down. Have this confidence especially in these times.

go to www.thework.com and do the worksheet about what's bothering you. It helps me when my mind is chaotic. It is very differnt from any other techniques. I found by coincidence, but it's been good. Give it a try.
