I naturally spend time reflecting upon things. I naturally try to evolve & learn from situations. This is very much a central aspect of who I am.
Over the last several weeks, I spent more time reflecting than I naturally do; this is a resource intensive act, in time & spoons. It also means being horrifically open to being mistaken, so open that you can shake & mould your own sense of identity.
This process is also highly organic, it is not something that is done as part of a "routine".
Why am I saying this?
Some respects, my sense of self identity is back & I am secure in my views. At the same time, I also increasingly unsure what my views are on things, & despite my age & knowledge, there is so much I do not adequately know about.

This including about aspects of myself as a person, like key aspects of my communication style seem to be linked to ADHD, & not autism.
So I am still learning & discovering things while in some respects being (relatively) secure, but also having moments of extreme self doubt & feeling lost on some topics.
It is just a weird place to be in, as a person, coming to the realisation, that a key part of being a reflecting person, is that it is OK to not know things, & it is a constant journey to discover who you are, & learn knew things about the world.
One of my most passionate beliefs in life, is what tends to bring parties down is stagnation, not learning from learnings things. Doing dodgy things over & over again. Classic example is David Cameron & referendums.
I invest so much into reflecting, partly to avoid stagnating as a person.
@Andylowarousal is this a good example of reflective practice?
