The human brain has been compared to a computer, as it is able to process a significant amount of information during the day. Therefore, it is necessary to give him unloading. This can be done by simply recording your thoughts on paper.
How to record your day
Recording the events that happened to you during the day helps to relieve emotional stress and calm down. When you write, your brain reacts to it as a task that needs to be solved. Thus, you learn to control thoughts and direct them correctly. Moreover, the psychological effect of "cleansing of consciousness" is triggered when we transfer the events of life to paper. Psychologists advise you to tune in a certain way before describing your day.
Correct attitude
Take some time in the evening to collect your thoughts and reflect on the events that happened during the day. It is worth turning off the sound on your phone, TV and computer. Create a calming background music, remove the glare, and start writing your thoughts down on paper. What you will write on is a purely individual matter. Some people like to write in a notebook, while others prefer an original designed album. The most important thing is how you feel during the process. Let go of the earthly vanity. Each person has his own system of perception of reality and ways of describing it. Perhaps you will briefly describe your day, or, conversely, try to convey your thoughts in detail. Some people like to decorate what is written with pictures or frames. It all depends on your inner attitude at this moment. Enjoy the process by focusing on the highlights.
Analysis of the events of the day
After you have written down the day you have lived, it is worth taking a short pause. At such a moment, you will feel relief and pleasant fatigue, as you have “swept away” the accumulated positive and negative thoughts. Then try to read what has been written again, but for the purpose of analyzing the situation. You can assign points to each event according to the degree of importance in your life. This way you can objectively assess the importance of each step. You will be surprised when you realize that not all events are worth worrying and upsetting. The ability to stop and think is an important part of an increased level of self-control and concentration. This kind of auto-training will help calm the nervous system and prepare your body for a fruitful rest. Tune in for this process to become a daily evening ritual. Periodically open the notes and re-read in order to clearly develop a strategy for interacting with the outside world.
