What tools have you used in transitioning out of a Mormon identity?

There are several ways I found the real "me" outside of Mormonism. I finally let myself read the books I wanted to read, listen to whatever music I wanted, watch whatever movie I wanted (even the R-rated ones *gasp!*), wear clothing I loved that wasn't so conservative-looking, etc. Something that gave me a lot of joy and fulfillment was exploring different spiritual practices too, even though I no longer believe in any supernatural things. I tried tarot and oracle card reading (a great system of symbols and archetypes), Wiccan candle magic (a positive visualization tool that's good for mental health), crystal meditation (using crystals as a focal point), etc. I find secular spirituality to be very healing and great for transitioning to a more mentally healthy place after religion.
