Overthinking can be about something super ordinary like what one wants to eat for dinner, but it can also be about something heavy, like what to do after you’ve had an argument with a loved one. To put it a certain way, not all overthinking is created equal, but whether we are thinking about things that would be deemed low stakes or high stakes, a lot of people ask themselves: “What can I do about this overthinking???”

Overthinking does not have to consume every aspect of our lives, and acting on our overthinking and, well, THINKING about our overthinking, can not only help us grow and learn, but it can even allow us to reframe situations where one overthinks in ways that can prove beneficial to self! I mentioned it in a past episode, but “brain dumps” are one of the things that tends to come from my own overthinking, and it gives me a lot of ideas to work on, things to explore, areas to improve, as well as even allows me to give positive self-talk when addressing things I’ve done right, not just wrong. This episode discusses strategies and shares examples that can help you stop overthinking!
