This episode explains the difference between overthinking and healthy reflection. Bailey breaks down the psychology of rumination, why it often persists despite traditional CBT, and how it relates to your nervous system state. You will learn three practical methods to interrupt rumination using awareness, emotional regulation, and small actions that bring the mind back into clarity. This is a simple and science aligned approach for anyone who struggles with looping thoughts and wants a regulated inner environment.
