How Do I Stop Overthinking? | Ft. Adina James [RTH Episode #44]

Hey friend! If you’ve ever felt trapped in a loop of anxious thoughts, replaying conversations, worrying about the future, or feeling mentally exhausted from trying to figure everything out, you’re not alone.

Today on The Road to Happiness Podcast, Josh sits down with Adina James, NICC® certified counselor and advanced practice therapist at MyCounselor.Online, to talk about her recent article:
👉 How Can I Stop Overthinking?

Overthinking can leave us feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and stuck. But understanding what’s happening beneath the surface can open the door to real healing and peace.

Together, Josh and Adina are diving into:

• Why we tend to overthink and what’s happening in the brain when it occurs
• How faith and anxiety intersect when we’re struggling with racing thoughts
• Common overthinking patterns and how to recognize them in your life
• Practical steps you can take to calm your mind and move toward healing
• When it might be time to seek counseling for anxiety and overthinking

Overthinking doesn’t mean you’re broken, it often means your mind is trying to protect you and find a solution to what you're feeling deeper. But you don’t have to stay stuck in the cycle of worry and anxiety. With understanding, support, and practical tools, peace is possible.

Key Takeaways:

• Overthinking often comes from a nervous system trying to feel safe
• Recognizing thought patterns is the first step toward changing them
• Just because you have faith doesn’t mean you don't experience anxiety. And that's not shameful!
• Small, intentional steps can help quiet the mental noise
• Counseling can provide tools and support when overthinking becomes overwhelming
