When you obsess, you mentally stir up a pot of worry, anxiety, fear, and angst. Overthinking problems doesn’t give you a reasonable perspective, it turns you into a hamster, mindlessly repeating the same sentences and scenarios until you’re worked into a near frenzy. Your thinking created the agitation. The way out is through feeling. Mentally scan your body and notice your sensations. When you do it without energizing or reacting, it brings you back to a state where you can most effectively respond to life…
Balance.
