Send us a textIn this mindfulness podcast, Sarah and Jacob discuss how to identify common thought patterns and why these types of thinking often lead to stress. Patterns include overthinking, rumination, worry and cognitive elaboration. They also explain how to use re-direction and self-compassion to bring yourself out of this type of thinking. A self-compassion practice is one of the most effective ways to minimize overthinking and other distracting thought cycles. Ending these cycles is important because research shows they can lead to stress and burnout.This episode is a meditation for beginners, and mindfulness for beginners resource.
