Ways to overcome stress - how to calm your mind when the thoughts keep spinning

November 15, 2021

Having a busy mind for the racing thoughts is unpleasant and a big cause of stress. Sometimes incessant thinking and negative thoughts can feel overwhelming and difficult to control.  In this episode, I share my experience and some helpful strategies of how to take control of the mind when it's become too busy.

Three strategies I cover in more depth are:
1. Breathing and state - consciously control in the breath directly changes your neurological state and emotional state.
2. Create space between things - having no space for your mind to process things is not helpful. Putting in small breaks between work, meetings, activities is helpful.
3. Control the inner noise - turn down the volume and then move your attention to external sources.  

Please send me your experience and if these help you or you'd like to understand more. I'm always happy to continue the conversation and answer questions as this is a big topic with much more to explain.
