How to Stop Overthinking
1. Dis-Identify Yourself With Things That Don’t Define You
Just like diarrhoea leaves you weak, so does overthinking leave you with little energy. So, stay away from things identified with you that you’re not. Know what you are and what you aren’t.

3. Clear Your Mind Before Bed
Unload everything that isn’t you before hitting the pillow. Do the clothes your wear represent you? Does the house you live in reflect you? If not, leave those things.
Sadghuru emphasizes that to stop overthinking, dissociate yourself from identities. And you’ll feel a surge of energy run through your body.
