Description

In this episode of "Rise Up Live Joy Your Way," life coach Kamini Wood tackles the pervasive habit of overthinking, also known as rumination. She dives into the psychological and neuroscientific reasons behind this cycle, explaining how repetitive thoughts can trap us in a state of anxiety and decision paralysis. Drawing on research from cognitive behavioral therapy and authors like Barry Schwartz, Kamini reveals how cognitive distortions and an abundance of choices can fuel overthinking. She provides practical, science-backed strategies to interrupt these patterns, including thought challenging, mindfulness, and taking small, decisive actions to reclaim your focus and move from a state of worry to productive, intentional living.
