Write a brief summary of anything new you just experienced. This would include:

New factual content

General idea

The idea is to keep running through scenes from this topic, exploring it in all the detail you can manage, from all angles possible, until it's no longer an issue for you at all. It's OK if this takes more than one session. You don't have to do it all at once.

Ending session

It's fine to end the session before your topic is fully discharged. Maybe you've run out of time, or had a good win, or something. Here is the general "session end point" page again.

Different scene

At some point you will very likely discharge your current topic and lose interest in exploring it further. It is best to end the session at that point (click on the "end session shortly" link). If there is a different topic you would like to get into, do it in another session, and start again from the top at Step 1.
