7 Good Minutes: Extra - What to Do When You're Mid-Argument in Your Head at Bedtime

If you're lying in bed arguing with someone who isn't in the room, this short practice gives you a way to stop the loop without needing a better comeback.

In about two minutes, you'll learn three steps. Name the argument quietly. Ask one question: is there something I actually need to say to this person? Then either pick your opening sentence and a time, or decide on purpose that it's done. You'll also hear two quick checks for when you're not sure which answer is honest.

Finally, you'll learn how to give your mind a calm, detailed scene to hold instead, and what to realistically expect the first night you try it.
