    Calma tu mente acelerada. El sobre pensar es forma de evitación que nos distrae de nuestras emociones

    El sobrepensar y darle demasiadas vueltas a las cosas es la forma en que tu mente crea una sensación de seguridad en momentos de incertidumbre. Todos tendemos a pensar en exceso; es algo inherente a la condición humana. El problema surge cuando perdemos el anclaje con la realidad. A menudo creemos que juzgar nuestros pensamientos hará que desaparezcan, pero aquello a lo que te resistes, persiste Ve el episodio aqui: https://youtu.be/BJoMWaDU4uA Link para terapia si estas en el estado de Tejas: www.paraelalma.net  Link para el episodio de la ventana de tolerancia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQdSTKo-fj4

    Calm your racing mind. Overthinking is avoidance and distracts us from having to feel our emotions.

    Overthinking is how your mind creates safety in times of uncertainty. We all overthink, it comes with being human, the issue is when we are no longer grounded. We often think that judging the thoughts will make them go away, but what you resist will persist.  Watch the episode here: https://youtu.be/Y3w5z_7lEr0 Communication style and I statements: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYjglssZVc4&t=73s Escapism and DIssociation- window of tolerance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Z9O6r03vt0&t=12s
