Ever wake up feeling heavy, hit snooze again and again, or snap over something tiny while your mind runs through every worst-case scenario? You’re not alone. The constant “what ifs” about health, relationships, work, or the latest headlines can quietly hijack your nervous system and leave you exhausted.

In this episode, we explore what happens when your brain fixates on things you can’t actually control and how that shows up in your body as tension, brain fog, irritability, and overwhelm.

Most importantly, you’ll learn a handful of gentle, body-based practices you can use when you notice yourself spiraling. These are simple ways to interrupt the loop, give your body a sense of safety, and bring your response back into proportion with what’s actually happening in the moment.

If overthinking stops you from sleeping, zaps your energy, or decreases your ability to be present with the people you love, this episode is for you.

Press play, experiment with the practices, and notice what shifts.
