I am curious if people prepare for their sessions in any way? Do you do anything to get ready for the discussion?

I usually take 5 to 10 mins to think, write down what I want to talk about and say a quick prayer for T, me and the session. Sometimes when we are talking about difficult things I have pushed it very far from myself during the week. Sometimes I can't even connect with a text I may have sent earlier in the week. It seems far away. Rarely do I journal before even though it sometimes does bring me back into a serious, deep talk space. Do you try to prepare for the continuation of difficult discussions? Do others do anything right before your session? What do you do (or not do) and why?
