More often than not, I'll sit in my comfortable chair looking at the pages of the book, while my brain absorbs only small segments of the story.
When I've been so low I can't even get absorbed in anything, I forced myself to do NOTHING but breathe. Not even engage with thoughts, or if I did, just let them go when I noticed it. Turns out that's a kind of meditation. Anyway, it was a relief and often led to a concentration of energy to do some little thing. Not a panacea, but works sometimes.
