I've done my reflection.
I've done my experience.
And then I'm going to plan some kind of a transition activity.
So that might be, I'm going to go get in the shower.
That might be, I'm going to go...
Brush my dog.
I don't know.
Some kind of distraction activity.
Maybe go play a game for 15 minutes.
I'm not sure.
Whatever your version of a distraction is.
If you notice, because a lot of people will do that journal activity, tear it up.
They're doing great.
They do their transition activity.
Like let's pretend.
Okay.
So now I'm going to take a shower and I'm going to get ready for bed.
they get in the shower and all they're doing is thinking about all the stuff they journaled about, but they're supposed to shut the door on that, but they can't because it's so overwhelming.
Then what you need to do is figure out, okay, so my distraction activity has to include something that my brain is actively doing.
If just don't think about it was a real thing, I would genuinely not have a job, okay?
