How to handle Overthinking?

One of the most widely discussed psychological issues in the Modern world is Overthinking. It is something that makes our life more miserable in our mind than life in our reality. This blog is dedicated to everyone who is asking google “How to handle overthinking.” This blog is an answer for most people that will help them in regaining control of their lives resulting in better mental health. Here are the Six things you need to Understand.

1-You are Suffering More than Required.

Buddha once said “we Suffer more in Imagination than in our reality” and that is so true. Our lives are too emotion-oriented. We keep digging for answers in the fire of emotions resulting in more pain and grief. Instead, we should just accept our realities and tend to focus on Improving ourselves instead of Improving the Situation. Don’t resist what you are given. Accept challenges and work for good days. Embrace the fact that 99% of your problems are caused by your thoughts and less than 1% are from your mind.

2-Embrace Self Love

I have just published a book on living a Self Centered Life, you can get your copy from Amazon. It is one of its kind book that will completely guide you on the journey of Self Love. As far as this blog is concerned, the first step is Self Acceptance. Don’t see yourself as ugly, fat, black, brown, or anything. Don’t define yourself with things that are not in your control. Instead, define yourself with things you have done to make yourself proud and happy. Look for your achievements in the past, and think about your plans for the future. Think about your strengths. You are unique, you are different, and You should love Yourself.

3-Cross Check Your Thoughts

Don’t accept everything that your mind tells you about yourself or reality. Look for different narratives from your own mind. For example, your friend didn’t reply to you back. Instead you start thinking that your friend is ignoring you, you might think that your friend is busy at the moment. How easy and applicable it is. Don’t accept the negative business of your own thoughts about yourself. Accept with grace, Accept Positively.

4-Busy Yourself

While having a hike of emotions, start doing something to busy yourself. Start deep breathing when you have nothing else to do. Keeping Yourself busy will make you not react to the situation.

5-Learn to be in a State of “Flow.”

Have you ever seen a river arguing with the lion about what it is my water, you can’t drink it?

Have you ever seen a river arguing with a snake that I will not let you swim through me?

This is how nature works. Accept everything, benefit everyone, and don’t limit yourself to your own self. Achieving a state of flow means you have learned to contribute and don’t expect any reward from the people. That’s the nature of this Universe. Sun, moon, clouds, rivers, oceans, and every else thing is in flow. So will you be too?
