Your Thoughts Are Energy—How Overthinking Keeps You Stuck (And How to Shift)
Sometimes, something happens that hurts you—words, actions, moments beyond your control. And before you know it, your mind starts replaying the past, looping through endless thoughts that lead nowhere.
Like running a mental marathon with no finish line. Overthinking drains your energy, disconnects you from your intuition, and makes you act from fear instead of truth. But here’s what we don't see—overthinking can be addictive. It keeps the mind busy, giving a false sense of control. Replaying moments on repeat yet in reality, keeping you feel busy, like an addiction of thoughts.
But overthinking isn’t just about thoughts—it’s about frequency.
The state of your mind affects the state of your energy. The more you overthink, the heavier your energy becomes, trapping you in the same emotions, the same cycle. But clarity, intuition, and ease exist in a higher state.
So how do you break free? You don’t fight overthinking—you shift your energy. You shift your focus.
- Redirect your attention—Recall a joyful moment—a loved one’s laughter, a time you felt truly happy.
- Move your body—Stretch, shake off tension, take a walk. Movement shifts energy instantly.
- Breathe intentionally—Slow inhales, longer exhales. Your breath is a bridge between your thoughts and your energy.
- If that feels difficult, shift to your surroundings—Feel the air, notice the sky, observe your breath.
- Engage your senses—The warmth of your coffee, the rhythm of your heart, the sounds around you.
- Connect with nature—Step outside, touch the earth, feel the sunlight. Nature naturally resets your energy.
Every time you find yourself spiraling, don’t just try to ‘think less.’ Shift—intentionally.
Recognize overthinking for what it is—a mental habit, not a solution.
Awareness breaks the cycle. Each time your mind spirals, shift—intentionally.
Overthinking drains your power. Awareness brings it back. Breathe. Trust. Let go. And Shift your Focus.
