Dear hailee:

It takes practice but it is possible to change from being anxious (overthinking is a response to anxiety: the thinking brain is looking to solve a problem rationally so to resolve the anxiety- only the problem/s it focuses on are not the real problems) to living in the moment. The practice is Mindfulness. You can find articles, I think, on the Home Page of this website on the practice of mindfulness (under BLOG above).

Looking for the real problem behind the anxiety, usually childhood problem/s, is the INSIGHT part of what we need to change from anxious (overthinking) to … relatively safe, calm.
