Trying to quiet the monkey mind, to stop fretting, is no easy task. Even our dreams can be fraught with the concerns and worries we face in our everyday lives. There are various possible solutions; getting out in nature, meditation, vigorous exercise and activity. Each of them can take your attention from your worries, giving your mind some space to find a solution or way to calm yourself. I like to try all three as each will work best at certain times. If it is good for you and soothes your mind, I say go for it and work it into your daily life as best you can.
