IQ-125: Why Can’t I Stop Overthinking: I...

BRANDY GILLMORE
About this episode

Ever wonder why your brain feels like it's stuck on replay, rehashing thoughts over and over? Many of us get stuck in analysis paralysis or a relentless cycle of overthinking. But why does this happen?

Today’s quick IQ episode comes from a question posed by one of our incredible listeners: "How come I overthink everything?" And in this episode Brandy introduces three counterintuitive insights into this overthinking phenomenon. 

So, if you've ever felt overwhelmed by your own thoughts, this episode is a must-listen. Come join us!

IMPORTANT NOTE: We understand that some may believe mind-body healing is impossible. Therefore, if you would like to see images of individuals using their minds to relieve pain, you can check out this medical journal. It includes images from some of Brandy's case studies. If you want to learn how to use your mind to heal yourself, you can check out the training on Brandy's website. Each week, Brandy publishes a volunteer episode where she coaches a volunteer to heal themselves using their own mind. In addition, Brandy shares a quick IQ episode (Insights and Questions) where she answers listener questions or delves deeper into insights on working with the mind for healing.

If you struggle with negative thoughts or have a chronic health issue or chronic pain, please do not avoid seeing your doctor. Instead, your goal with self-healing should be to continue to see your doctor as recommended and blow their mind with what you are capable of with your mind and with the power of mind-body healing. Please enjoy this self-healing podcast.
