Over thinking can be SUCH a huge source of unease and discomfort in your daily life, it can affect your sleep, cause anxiety, depression and nearly always results in unhappiness.  

Over thinking can cause you to miss opportunities, stop you going for your dreams and generally keep you stuck exactly where you are.  It just makes life feel that much harder!

A great thing to remember when trying to stop over thinking or worrying is that your thoughts really do shape your reality and that where your focus goes, energy flows.  You bring MORE of what you focus on into your life so you need to focus as much as possible on the good stuff!

Can you think of a time when you’ve wasted a huge amount of time and energy overthinking  something that MIGHT happen that never did?

All worrying tends to be either focusing on things that have happened in the past or things that might happen in the future so you can see how important it is to try and keep yourself in the now!

My Top Tips To Stop Over Thinking:

Awareness is the key to changing any behaviour. So when you’re catching yourself in that negative, over thinking mindset then try a few of these to help shift your focus.

Identify what causes you to over think.  Is it certain people? situations? Circumstances?  

Identify your triggers and try and do less of it or limit your time surrounded by it!

Ask yourself: Who is this helping? And who is this harming?

I was always a HUGE over thinker and these questions always help to ground me and bring me back to the present moment.
