Quiet Time

Your psyche needs time every day to process your life in a quiet uninterrupted environment. If you aren’t into formal meditation then consider simply being quiet and still for a few minutes every day. Sitting down, lying down (as long as you don’t go to sleep) are fine. Don’t worry that your mind goes in a hundred different directions. Just let it do its thing and relax. After a while you will enter into a calmer state and may begin to feel your body tingle in a pleasant and comforting way. This relaxing time gives your subconscious mind a chance to problem solve and process the events of your life. If you find it difficult to hold still be patient and persevere with your quit time. You may have been in the habit of “speeding” through your life. This nervous energy can be released through therapy if it’s severe. Otherwise, learn to quiet yourself. You will become more even minded, balanced, and calm. This is always a good thing.
