Me neither. Please share with us what kinds of excersizes that might be.
I do have a routine to save me from thinking about what to do next. I sometimes think I am a little too rigid though. I think there is a balance between thinking all the time and having a routine. I think routine can free up mental space for other activities such as affirmations, challenging negative thinking, analyzing the reason why we think the way we do, etc. I find that self-monitoring one's thought processes/reality testing one's thinking requires a high level of energy at times. I think having a routine might help free up mental energy for problem solving, hobbies, thinking about your favorite tv show, planning for a future activity etc.
Good luck with the exercizes. I think I might need some spelling practice on the word exercize.
