## Resource

On this episode of The Journaling Guy Podcast (Season 3, Episode 8), I'm talking about Overthinking ! We've all been guilty of it, letting thoughts loop around and around our minds. Yo go over it. Turn it around and around and looked at it from every angle - but still, nothing is clear! Journaling has a lovely way of bringing clarity to our thoughts! Your Journaling Prompt for This Week is this: “Breaking the Loop” What exactly am I thinking about right now? What decision or outcome am I trying to control? What do I actually know for certain? What is one small next step I can take? If I couldn’t think about this anymore today… what would I do? ------------------ Please get in touch with any questions and of course, your feedback too. Email - hello@thejournalingguy.com If you enjoyed this episode, please share it with someone who might need a bit of space to think. Plus, please leave me a review, they matter so much for getting the podcast heard and seen. Always remember... "keep writing, keep noticing, and keep showing up for yourself", Matt.
