Your mind may be working overtime today, which could be because you are having lively discussions with others about issues that are interesting for you. Although stimulating conversations might make you feel that you are engaged in the world in a deep and profound way, you might also wish to keep in mind that it is important to give your mind a chance to rest and reflect on everything you have taken in. If you feel motivated to explore your ideas after a discussion today, instead of letting your thoughts run rampant you might take some time to write a stream-of-consciousness journal. Simply letting your ideas flow through you in the form of words can help you process and gain greater insight into the new and invigorating ideas you have come across today.

Journaling is a wonderful way to work through the ideas that excite us and find ways to apply them to our lives. The act of debating is filled with a hot form of energy where we are put on the spot and try to keep up with the momentum of our arguments. While this type of activity is electrifying, if it is not expressed in a healthy way it can agitate our minds. Getting our thoughts down on paper today, however, will allow you to continue your debate, but in a way that you will be encouraged to explore the interplay between your ideas and how you can apply them to your life in a meaningful way.
