Overthinking is the plight of many of us big feelers - but if it leaves us feeling worse, why do we do it at all? and what might we do instead?
Coming up, we chat about:
- Greys Anatomy as a tool of emotional catharsis
- Whether rumination is the same as a compulsive behaviour
- The itchiness of emotionally-charged 2am thoughts
- How we can mindfully intervene when we’re lured by the siren song of overthinking
