    Allow yourself to be bored at times.

    No social media, no YouTube, no music, no doom scrolling looking for content, don’t give yourself a task to complete, don’t start cleaning.

    Be there, in the moment, with yourself.

    Let your mind wander.

    And if it wanders to some dark places confront that darkness. Don’t run away, don’t let it fester. Face those inner demons.

    I find a good way to do this at first is to go somewhere surrounded by nature with little to no people.

    I have a specific place I go to out in the local wilderness area that is incredibly hard to get to and very isolated.

    You don’t have to go so far but it needs to be a place free from distractions.
