[Kobi]

I worked in health care/mental health for decades. When I took work home with me,
it was either because something particularly hideous occurred or,
there was something I felt I could have handled better.

Either way, for the ride home, my listening pleasure was
classical music if I needed to just mellow out, a comedy tape
(yes we used tapes back then) if I needed to laugh, or
something by Loretta LaRoche if I needed a kick in the butt.

Once home, physical activity was a necessity....
a walk on the beach, bike ride, trip to the gym, raquetball game.
The activity seemed to expel the excess energy and calm my
mind enough for me to relax and be able to process what I needed to.

A hot shower or bath as kind of a ritual washing away of the
days crap helped.

A hearty meal followed by a calming movie or good book helped as well.
