Ep 56 - How to Stop Overthinking

Are you an overthinker? Perhaps you ruminate on past situations, worry about future events or are fearful of the judgement of others?

Overthinking can affect both our work and personal lives as well as how we show up with confidence as a leader. Our thoughts also directly impact the levels of daily stress we experience and how quickly we can recover from it.

In reality, our minds are natural overthinkers if we let them be. Tahirih McLaren-Brown is helping people to take control and be the boss of their brain through mindfulness and meditation.

We discussed:

• What mindfulness is and how it can benefit you
• How you can have more awareness and control of your thoughts and emotions
• What you can do if you’re feeling worried or anxious about returning to the office
• Ways you can handle uncertainty and even embrace it
• A quick mindfulness exercise you can do anywhere to instantly ease your stress
