Sometimes while lying on our bed in the dark of night, we think about something that may not seem important to anyone else. Still, for us, that small thing becomes a big storm and on thinking about it again and again, we look around at every aspect, fear the future, worry about the future, and confusion about the present. What thinking and the strangest thing is that if we think that we are solving something, but in reality we are entangling ourselves even more.
There is no shortcut to get out of overthinking, but one thing is certain, just awareness and we start to understand what we are thinking, why we are thinking, and whether this thinking is important to us, then we slowly start to come out of the slow pole and overthinking is a trap.
