how do you unwind?


Posts: 842

life can be busy and being constantly aware is tiring

i find that i unwind only when im less aware for whichever reason, like really focused on one thing, and this one thing varies. it can be a conversation, youtube clip, or a train of thought. it may last a few seconds if i'm lucky. i've noticed how it's increasingly more important to calm my brain at the end of the day because if i don't, then my sleep suffers and it has a cascade effect into the next day 

stress and nervosity keep me from fully forgetting my whereabouts and focusing on one thing, this is potentially debilitating.  

unwinding is hard but it shouldn't be - please share your secrets and wisdom to help an old chimp get some peace of mind

I forbid myself to get on the computer on weekends except if I am doing overtime work for bonus. I have to bike or walk or do something outside in order to recharge.

Do human things like drinking water and eating.

Connecting to something that makes the problems of daily life seem trivial.  For me, it's nature.

 

When that's not an option, anything that stimulates my mind.  Good art, good jokes, good weed, good conversation.  Getting absorbed in projects.  It doesn't really unwind me, but it puts the winding on pause for a bit.

 Are you looking for specific examples of things that distract me?

I agree with good weed. Also drugs.

Why do you think that's what I'm looking for?
