Shift Attention to the Outside World

When stuck in unpleasant internal feeling states, direct attention outward; examples include going for a run or walk. This is described as reducing the prominence of internally derived features of experience.

1 / 1

If you go for a run, if you go for a walk, if you shift your attention to the outside world, then the features of experience that are derived from the inside world diminish.
