Sir Gowers actually has a number of playlists around thinking about problems in real time; haven't looked at them myself, but may be worthwhile to mention that this series is one instance of multiple playlists of the same type, each focused on its own domain.
Dang, it's nice to find another 'Kashmir' Shaiva here, of all places!
Do you practice? (I mean this in the sense of practicing the inner yogas/meditation, not in the sense of joining a religion.)
(I found this post when searching for the word 'dharma' on LW, to see what the word means for the community. I actually think this post is def instructive, but still written from within a reductive lens that privileges the Astika schools rather than now.)
The book 'The New Diary' by Tristine Rainer has a variety of tools and methods for precisely this expansion of journaling (which go much beyond prompts, so if you're looking narrowly for just prompts then it may be the wrong level of abstraction), and claims that these tools and methods in fact constitute a basis set for the activity.
(FWIW, the book was updated multiple years after its publication, and the author claims that she hasn't found anything not covered by the intervening years not covered by the basis.)
Can confirm with a somewhat spectacular N=1.
My mother is a diabetic, and on medication for it. Her fasting sugar in the mornings used to be ~150, and she naturally wakes up at ~7 AM.
After doing a few minutes of moderately strenuous exercise ~25-20 min after a meal and before sleeping (blood sugar spikes slightly later after a meal than after straight glucose ingestion), on my suggestion, she now occasionally finds herself waking up due to hunger pangs at ~5-6 AM; her blood sugar at this point is often ~80-100. Even when she sleeps through the night, her fasting sugar in the morning is now almost always in the 80-120, usually 80-100 range after waking up, whenever she has followed the protocol.
(We're probably going to reduce her medication dosage after this after consulting and confirming with her doctor, since it appears the reduction is significant enough that her current dose is now slightly too high.)
This seems to be an absolutely busted intervention for hyperglycemia, to the extent that I think a case can be made to upgrade this to the level of population-level general advice ("exercise semi-strenuously for a few minutes ~15-30 min after a meal as just a default thing you do and everyone else does").
