Here are 10 lessons from the book “Get Out of My Head: Inspiration for Overthinkers in an Anxious World by Meredith Arthur:
1. Overthinking is not your fault. Everyone overthinks from time to time, and it is often a result of our anxiety and fears.
2. You can learn to manage your overthinking. There are a number of techniques that you can use to calm your mind and reduce your overthinking.
3. It is important to be present in the moment. When you are overthinking, you are often focused on the past or the future. Instead, try to focus on the present moment and enjoy your life.
4. You are not your thoughts. Your thoughts are just that: thoughts. They do not define you, and you do not have to believe them.
5. It is okay to let go of your thoughts. You do not have to hold on to every thought that you have. Instead, let go of your thoughts and allow yourself to be present in the moment.

8. You are worthy of love and happiness. Overthinking can make you feel like you are not worthy of love and happiness. However, it is important to remember that you are worthy of love and happiness, regardless of your thoughts.
9. You can create your own reality. Your thoughts create your reality. If you want to change your reality, you need to change your thoughts.
10. You are capable of great things. Overthinking can hold you back from achieving your goals. However, you are capable of great things if you believe in yourself and let go of your limiting thoughts.
