 |  How to calm my mind down to study after a social situation?
When I have a social event where I end up talking with people, I afterward have a hard time calming my mind down so that I can do something like studying that same day. So I tend to do my studying in the morning before any social interactions take place. I even best do my studying in the morning if I don't check on this forum at all until my morning studying is done so I don't have any of the messages from this forum cluttering in my mind. However, I'm finding myself needing at times to study, or do school work in the afternoon. I have a hard time to almost impossible time getting into the study-mental calmness state of mind doing that if I've had a significant social interactions during the day. How can I calm my mind and get it into a study mental state after social situations? |

Try candle meditation. It's simple to do and requires no training whatsoever. Read this article I wrote. Cheers, Eisho |

I'm glad you posted this Seeker. I have the same issue but have never adressed it. I can't even sleep after socialising - I'm still having conversations in my head! I have a feeling that just doing it is the best way, even if you don't feel like it...I read an NLP book that convinced me doing an activity will shift you into the right state after a while. |
