Overthinking is a sign we are avoiding our feelings
About this episode
The episode discusses how overthinking can be a mechanism to avoid feelings and the implications of this behavior on self-awareness and emotional health.
Overthinking is a sign we are avoiding our feelings. When I was young, I remember thinking 'I don't know why I don't feel sad'. And the reason was - I had gone into my head to stop from feeling. This is the first way we all learn to escape from our experience, causing a split and beginning the process of self-abandonment.
