Overcoming Overthinking

Thank you all for 800 plays! Please ignore some of the background noise as it was raining when we filmed this!! Our episode today is all about overthinking - what it is, causes and effects, and ways to control your thoughts in a healthy manner. Overthinking is something that many people struggle with. In fact, we have had many conversations with each other and our friends about this specific topic and trying to decipher why our mind often wanders or thinks so deeply about irrational things. We bring in some scientific research as well and talk through signs that can help everyone recognise if overthinking is a problem and then working towards overcoming it. Hope this episode was insightful!
