I hate picking berries. It's either too hot, or too cold, or too humid. Maybe I will convince myself some day; who knows? But I entirely understand the idea and support that. In my experience, there are two approaches: 1. Freestyle: I try not to steer anything; just the mind is flowing. 2. Focusing on here and now: I try to focus on the present moment. Here are my ideas: 1. Wandering in the woods/park without the phone and counting backwards from 50 to 1 over and over again, or focusing on the present experience (noticing people, nature, and other stuff without judgements, just the observation). 2. The same as above but with the phone + recording voice memos. Sometimes, it's over 30 minutes long voice memos :-) Saying things out loud have more power than just thinking about that. It makes that happen, real and physical. 3. Swimming in the pool, counting strokes, breaths, pools swum, etc.
