When my mind is on idle I tend to go into anxiety cycles, which is bad. As such I’ve got into the habit of carrying my smartphone and headphones with me at all times, and playing podcasts and audiobooks continuously, often at double speed.
I also have a mental calming exercise where I go through the integers in order and work out their prime factors (or if they are prime) in my head.
