Solitude vs Loneliness

Pause for a moment. Where do you feel this in your body?

When you are alone and not focusing on a task (daydreaming), your brain activates the Default Mode Network (DMN).

This is the birthplace of creativity, self-reflection, and problem-solving. This is why you get ideas in the shower.

Constantly being with others (or on phone) suppresses the DMN. You need solitude to access your genius.

Try this: Do a repetitive task (folding laundry, washing dishes) in silence. Let your mind wander. See what bubbles up.

When anxiety loops endlessly, Calm Loop Toolkit can help you find a way out.
