For me, it depends upon the level of emotional attachment, and urgency of the thoughts. If I can't let them go like a leaf on a stream, then I attend to them, and try to find a mental resolution, but only assertive planning seems to work. Both aggressive or passive(victimization) thoughts only intensify, and lengthen my attachment.

Living in the moment is a cure-all if you can do it. Even Zen monks living in monasteries hear a Zen bell, which is rung at irregular intervals, and this alerts them to come back to the moment. They, too, need reminding.
