How often do we get the feeling that we have "porridge" in our heads?.. Thoughts are confused, as if in a hurry somewhere … And we obviously do not keep up with them, being distracted by parallel current problems that seem to have no end in sight. Added to this is perfectionism, carefully put into our heads by parents: you must be the smartest, the strongest, the fastest … And of course, a little bit of the city with its internal architectonics: the noise of roads, the bustle of the crowd and the never-ending drill of a neighbor. Amid all this, it is not easy to hear your inner voice. But there are at least 5 ways to do this.
Instruction manual
one
Slow down the step. In the literal sense of the word. Start walking slowly, wherever you go. Even if you are late. Even if there is a feeling that the faster you do something, the freer / stronger / smarter, etc. Remember the expression “running away from a problem”?.. With a slowdown, the muscle structure of our body relaxes, which allows us to send fewer contractions to the brain. In other words, if you don’t hear yourself well, stop.

Separate proteins from carbohydrates. Separate food is simple: potatoes - separately from meat, cheese - from spaghetti, tomatoes - from all other products. Acquisition of protein requires an acidic environment, for the digestion of carbohydrates - alkaline. This means that when we eat food separately from each other, we do not overload the body, but, on the contrary, saturate it with energy and vitamins. The brain begins to work like a clock. Remember the phrase “put everything on the shelves”? You can start.

Shut up. For an hour. Or a couple. Or for a day. Through speech we receive new information, even when only we speak. Leaving the brain without “food” for some time, we force it to digest the old. And gradually, he simply becomes obsolete that which causes us concern.
4
Shout out the hustle and bustle. Drive out into the field or forest onto the river. To become, legs spread wide and arms spread and scream that there is strength. And then scream vowels in turn. "Aaaaa - oooo - uuuuu - eeee - yyyy" and in the reverse order. When we often say nothing to our interlocutor (out of fear or compassion), all these words and texts get stuck in our minds, and every now and then interfere with the process of thinking. In addition, the throat muscle structure takes a hit on itself and slowly atrophies. Anything that is not spoken or mourned is best left to nature.
5
Starve. Daily therapeutic fasting is a loyal assistant to deal with accumulated fatigue and look at the situation from a different perspective. Indeed, in a state of stress, we often turn to products with a "bright" taste (strongly seasoned, salted or sweetened). It is they who further contribute to nervous excitement, which distracts us from constructive thinking. How to correctly enter and exit starvation is best read in Paul Bragg's book "Healing Fasting."
