Are You An Overthinker Too?

We're all very capable of being overthinkers. So many of us are overthinking everything every day. Some of us only do it about certain subjects. But we all do it from time to time. Big life-altering decisions and questions are some things that we should be giving great thought to. Those instances are not what I'm talking about here though. I'm talking about the constant tapes that run through our heads.

For some of us, it's part of our healing process. Many of us need to look at things from many angles and in order for our healing to continue, it's constantly on our minds. This can be a good thing, as long as it doesn't become an obsessive thought process.

This has been on my mind a lot. Not because I'm an overthinker (although I do have my moments), but because I'm seeing this so much in my clients recently. These are some odd and hard times that we're all going through now. We're facing things that we haven't had to think about before. Had you ever thought that you might not be able to find toilet paper before? Nope. These are crazy times!

When a client comes to my table, the first thing I do is make an initial scan over their body with my hand. I'm feeling for differences, low energy, high energy, dense energy, buzzing, voids, anything that feels out of balance. In the past year at least 85% have had this dense energy over their heads. I recognize this density as overthinker energy.

Here's an interesting tidbit for you. What they all have in common is that they're not grounded. All too often overthinking couples with anxiety. Just one of these is enough to take you out of your body. Once these two things team up, it's very difficult to get all the way back into your body. Usually, a person doesn't even realize that they've been taken out of the body. I can tell them, somethings the instant I meet a person, but it doesn't fully click until they've returned to their body and taken full ownership of it. I can't tell you how many times someone has gotten off my table and told me that they feel taller.

But why am I telling you all of this? Because I want to help you to calm your mind by getting you back into your body. I've always said that we can't make changes to our bodies if we're not in our bodies. When we can get all the way into our bodies and connect ourselves to Mother Gaia we open all the channels from our Soul Star to our Earth Star. When these channels are unclogged we can flush all the unnecessary extra garbage that we collect. Let's try a little experiment together...

Imagine an open channel, a clear tube if you will, connecting at the top of your head all the way up into the heavens. Now imagine that channel continuing down your body and into the planet. There will be bits and pieces in that tube. These bits and pieces get in the way of our connection to God, Goddess, All That Is. I don't want you to worry about them right now. I want you to breathe and recognize that your inhales come from above and your exhales release below you.

Take your first breath with your dominant hand over your heart and tapping your heart during the inhale. Hold that breath in your lungs and belly, fill them up. Then as you slowly release the breath tap with your non-dominant hand on your sacral, at your belly button, bringing all that heart energy into this part of your body. Repeat this and on the next breath hold that breath in your belly and release it down your legs. On the third breath, drop your non-dominant hand to your root and hold that breath there and exhale it all the way down into the earth. Feel your feet open up and release, feel your feet really connect down into the planet. Think of this as a way to flush the bits and pieces that clog up your channel, imagine a giant toilet handle if that helps. If you're in your body, you can flush all the gunk in the channels, thereby helping to release some of the overthinking. It's a process but so was the overthinking.

If you're trying to imagine how to do the breathing, here's a link to a video I did a couple of years ago on being in your body and owning your real estate.

I hope this helps. And as always, you can book an appointment with me to help get to the root of it all, clear your energy, and put you back into balance.

I Wish You Light
