Do you ever feel like your brain just won't stop?
Like you have a 24/7 news ticker rolling through your mind with one breaking story after another?
You're not alone.
Our brains are constantly thinking, churning out about 60,000 thoughts a day!
But the problem is, we often get stuck on the negative ones that make us anxious, frustrated, and worried.
Here's the truth: I can't tell you how to stop thinking.
Your body holds the answers.
When you feel anxious, stressed, or any other negative emotion, pay attention to the feeling in your body, not the thought itself.
That physical sensation is your body's way of communicating with you.
By acknowledging and naming the feeling and letting it pass, you free up mental space to think clearly, problem-solve,and most importantly, feel good!
