Are you overthinking? BREATHE
More info
Overthinking often means getting stuck replaying the past or stressing about the future. It’s a common trap many of us fall into.
However, this mental loop can sidetrack us from the present. It’s essential to recognize when we’re overthinking so we can refocus on the here and now. Taking a moment to breathe and center ourselves can make all the difference. In fact your breath is never in the past or the future – it is always in the present.
Detailed info
- Find a quiet space (the bathroom, a corner, outside, anywhere that you can get to)
- Feel your feet on the ground.
- Take a few deep breaths and try to keep them even, inhale for three and exhale for three
- Think to yourself right here, right now I am ok.
