Somatic Practice for Overthinking, Rumination, & Mental Loops

When your mind will not stop looping, replaying, or trying to figure something out, it can feel almost impossible to step out of the cycle. In this episode, Britt shares why this happens through the lens of the nervous system, explaining how overthinking can become a survival response when the body is activated and searching for safety or control. She then offers a somatic practice to help you work with the physiological process underneath the mental loops, so you can feel more grounded, supported, and less caught in the spiral. Take 20 minutes of your day to get out of your head and into your body. Save this episode and come back to it when you need it.This episode offers a preview of the Body-First Healing Program.
