Who are my fellow humans with strong and vocal Overthinking Parts? (I capitalize these to represent the personification of these parts of us). 
Overthinking is a conversation with oneself that too often goes unmonitored. As those thoughts can run amok, they can activate even more Anxious Parts, or Shame.
And guess what? It’s not about quieting the noise; it’s about understanding and really hearing the message and truth these parts have for us. After a lifetime of trying to contol these parts, what my clients and I now know, is that these parts need our connection and attunement. They are craving our connection and curiosity, not control.
As a seasoned coach, I’ve learned that addressing overthinking requires compassion, and a new inner conversation. Engage with your inner protectors—Procrastination, Distraction, Avoidance—with curiosity and kindness. Want to know how to turn these parts into allies for your well-being and your business’s success? I’m here to help you learn to hear and trust your own true self.
Here’s a journal prompt to explore and connect within. Reminder, have a direct conversaion with this overthinking part vs “thinking about or over analizying the Overthinker.”
