Contain Your Brain for Rumination

Rumination is like a broken record of negative thoughts that just keeps playing over & over again in your mind.

You might be replaying a chat gone wrong with a friend or an embarrassing moment from years ago.

Either way, you’re probably so caught up in your thoughts that you end up spinning your wheels without actually making progress towards a solution (maybe because there isn’t one…).

Well let’s stop playing that old record & break free from this draining pattern of thinking that is taking up all your time & energy.
