Listening to audiobooks often gently calms me down. My mind is frequently racing with thoughts, unable to focus. Just putting on an audiobook while doing non-mental draining tasks (like household chores for instance) helps tremendously with that. It shifts my mind to the story, the thoughts are redircted at a fixed thing - the story - and I'm able to concentrate better on the task or to be more efficient because my thoughts aren't all over the place for once.

@inkandashes@lgbtqia.space I do the same. Though I also ensure I get thinking time. Coz it's good for us.
