Do you replay conversations, worry about things that haven’t happened or find yourself wide awake with a mind that refuses to switch off? Overthinking can feel like problem-solving, yet often leaves us feeling exhausted, uncertain and stuck.
In this accessible and relatable talk, John Black of Beechwood Therapy & Hypnotherapy explores why we become caught in repetitive thinking and how stress can make it harder to see things clearly.
Drawing on his work as a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist, John explains the difference between useful reflection and going round in circles. He explores why trying to force thoughts away can be frustrating, and how shifting our attention towards manageable actions can help us move forward.
Audiences will discover practical ways to interrupt familiar thinking patterns, create moments of calm and approach everyday challenges with greater perspective. The emphasis is on building helpful habits, recognising personal strengths and taking small steps, rather than trying to control every thought.
With everyday examples and opportunities for reflection, this talk offers a reassuring message: a busy mind does not have to dictate your day. You can learn to respond to your thoughts differently and make more room for the life you want.
