An effective method to break free from the cycle of thinking is to keep a journal regularly, specifically using carefully crafted journal instructions to overthink. Journaling can be a form of expressive writing, a tool widely used in therapy, which is associated with significant physical and emotional health benefits. Use your favorite creative writing tool (such as colored gel pens or even fragments to make collages) and write down every word you can think of, whether they make up complete sentences or not. Instead of staring at a blank page wondering what to write about, journal instructions can help you unravel your thoughts and emotions and convert them in something clearer.
