Do you find yourself obsessively replaying conversations, worrying about what you should’ve said, or overanalysing situations long after they’ve passed? You’re not alone, and your brain might be stuck in a loop it doesn’t know how to exit.
In this episode, I break down the psychology and neuroscience of rumination, why it happens, and how to stop the mental spiral before it drags you down. You'll learn the difference between productive reflection and toxic overthinking, and how to retrain your brain to let go.
Topics include:
Why the brain loves repeating negative thoughts
The role of your default mode network in overthinking
How to interrupt obsessive mental loops in real time
Cognitive strategies to move on and reclaim your peace
Simple tools to manage regret, self-blame, and “what if” thinking
If you’ve ever laid awake at night overanalysing a conversation or can’t seem to let go of something that already happened, this episode is MADE for you.
