Ever feel like you’re stuck on a mental treadmill and can’t get off?
Here are my top 5 tried and tested strategies to help you break free from overthinking:
- Eat something (make sure you’re not hangry).
- Distract yourself with something engaging and lifegiving (your breath, uplifting music, work you enjoy, movement).
- Write it down (sometimes this can get to the nub of what’s bothering you or help put it in context).
- Ask yourself: “Will this matter in a year? If yes, ask “what does it teach me?”
- Book in with a coach or supportive friend and commit to taking action.
Still finding it a challenge to disentangle yourself from the busyness of your thoughts? Book in for a walk and talk session with me – we’ll sort out what’s on your mind while getting you fit. Contact me on suzy@suzyreading.co.uk
