We finish off our two-parter on overthinking by taking a deep dive into the emotions we’re ignoring when we retreat into rumination—and ways to sometimes redirect our attention toward them instead.
We explore:
Whether complex emotions are the culprits luring us into overthinking
Why “why” is a fraught question to ask ourselves when we’re feeling vulnerable
How to get out of our heads and into our bodies with mindfulness-based inquiry
And the challenge smart people face in stepping away from the intellectual into something more poetic and slippery

I'm in the habit of being alone
I try hard to break it I can't on my own
