@ I hadn't implemented the specific techniques I mentioned when I was stalling at 163, so it really was the mix of those techniques I mentioned that made the difference. LG was always an anxiety-provoking section for me, so seeing it as memorizing patterns really helped. Once I got LG down to -0, the error journal and blind reviewing with commitment helped bring RC and LR down to -2/-3 very consistently.

I started out using a 20-day course on the app Insight Timer to learn some meditation techniques. The technique that ended up being best to me involved visualizing a place that is calming to me and then using that visualized space with measured breathing to have a clean slate between sections. I knew that I needed a technique that I could do during the 1 minute between sections, and so I would spend about 30 seconds doing this between sections to reset mentally, and feel like I was in a place of calm control going into the section. Using breath as an anchor in general was helpful because I could do a short 5 second break of breathing in between tough reading passages and have a mini reset too amidst all the reading. I hope that helps!
