Ruminations and Worrying Ruining Your Day?




The Psych Central Podcast: Psychology Made Simple show

Summary: Does your brain seem to have a “mind” of its own? Does it jump in the driver’s seat and take you places you’d rather not go? In today’s episode, a licensed psychologist explains how we get trapped in cycles of ruminations -- those dark, repetitive thoughts that won’t leave us alone -- and how to escape this cycle by living with intention. When we realize that every decision we make is just one option of many, it reduces our anxiety and makes us feel more in control of our lives.
