So if you, you know, as close to the 10 o'clock bedtime as you can get. Next, think about doing something, even if it's five minutes every day to move your body. Get out of your head, get into your body. We know that's what's good for your body is good for your brain and vice versa. So it's truly about blood flow and getting good blood to the brain. And so think about that.

If you would like, consider doing some journaling. So a gratitude practice. five things you're grateful for every day and why. You can connect with friends or community. There are so many small, tangible ways that you can get out of this mode. But even if that feels too much for you, what you can simply do is say, I'm gonna look forward to my cup of coffee this afternoon.

And then maybe you'll be like, oh yes, I feel better. Oh, I'm gonna take a walk around my block tomorrow. What is that walk around the block doing for you? Is it doing anything for your body in terms of fitness? No, this is about mental fitness. But what it's doing for you is that it's creating a sense of agency.

When you feel a sense of agency, and what agency means is, I have the power to make a difference in my life. You, Mel, you are the poster child of human agency.

It's like we have... There's two types of energy. There's potential energy and kinetic energy. And Newtonian physics. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It is just changing to a different form. And so when you have that... When you're stewing in your own stuff... And you can't get out of your own way. There's a lot of potential energy there.

It feels like you're wading through molasses, but there is a lot of potential energy there. And when you take that first step, that's the science of action. When you take that first step, it doesn't have to be a big step. It can be getting outside, lacing up your sneakers, going outside, feel the sun on your face, taking a deep breath of fresh air. Take a little walk if you can. Anything. Anything.

a small step, you are transferring that potential energy to kinetic energy. And kinetic energy is energy in motion. Over time, when you feel that sense of, oh, I did this, maybe I'll do it tomorrow. And when you feel that sense of completion from a small act, like walking around the block or making yourself a cup of coffee or anything else,
