Chill Out, Buttercup: Taming the Overthinking Beast

Written by Dr. Kris Norville

Hey there, dazzling thinkers and professional worrywarts! Today, we’re talking about that sneaky little gremlin called overthinking and how it’s about as helpful as a chocolate teapot. Picture this: your brain, a super-efficient, high-speed train, zooming through the countryside of your consciousness. Pretty cool, right? But wait – there’s a catch. This train doesn’t know when to stop. It’s like it’s driven by a caffeine-addicted squirrel, making non-stop trips to Overthinksville. Choo choo, welcome to Stress Central!

Over Thinking Is Exhausting

First off, let’s get real – overthinking is like doing laps in a pool filled with Jell-O. It’s exhausting, gets you nowhere, and let’s face it, it’s just plain weird. When you overthink, you’re basically playing a never-ending game of mental ping-pong. Back and forth go your thoughts, “What if this, what if that,” until you’re so dizzy, you wouldn’t notice if a unicorn tap-danced past you.

Give Your Brain a Vacation

But here’s the kicker: all this mental gymnastics is about as useful as a screen door on a submarine. It’s time to take a chill pill and give your brain a well-deserved vacation. How, you ask? By embracing the art of calming your soul, indulging in some self-care, and relaxing into every experience like it’s a giant bean bag.

Calming the soul isn’t some mystical practice reserved for yogis and enlightened beings who levitate in their free time. It’s about giving yourself permission to pause, breathe, and just be. Imagine telling your brain, “Hey buddy, let’s take a break.” You might just hear it sigh in relief.

Self-care Is Not SELFISH

Self-care, my fabulous friends, is not selfish. It’s essential. It’s like putting on your oxygen mask first before helping others. You can’t pour from an empty cup, unless you’ve discovered a glitch in the laws of physics. So, light some candles, run a bubble bath, or dance around in your underwear – whatever floats your self-care boat.

Relax Into Every Experience

And then, there’s the magic of relaxing into every experience. Life isn’t a race to the finish line; it’s a leisurely stroll through the park. Stop and smell the roses, high-five a tree, or watch a sunset like it’s the season finale of your favorite show. Embrace the here and now, because, spoiler alert, the present moment is where the party’s at.

So, my overthinking comrades, it’s time to dethrone the worry king and crown yourself the ruler of chill. Let’s turn down the volume of the mind and crank up the melody of the soul. Remember, a calm mind is a happy mind, and a happy mind is like having a party in your head – and everyone’s invited.

Grab a “Stop Over Thinking” destressed hooded sweatshirt as a reminder to revel in the moment.

Stay chill, stay fabulous.

Peace out,

Dr. Kristina Norville ✌️🌈💆‍♀️💖🌈✌️
