Overthinking comes in many forms but by far the main two types are rumination (which can lead to feelings of unworthiness, depression and self-doubt) and worry (which gives rise to stress, anxiety and overwhelm).Research shows that overthinking is linked to mental illnesses such as clinical depression and anxiety.

In this episode, I share a simple practice you can use to shift overthinking into a more empowering, helpful and skillful way of thinking.Key Links and notes:Melli O’Brien: https://melliobrien.comWaitlist for the Deep Resilience Experience course release (currently the waitlist is on our old course page called Headstrong https://melliobrien.com/headstrong-program/ here) Get your free Deep Resilience Care Package: https://melliobrien.com/#deep-resilience-care-package
