Hey friends, what's going on? Welcome to the Astrosol, I'm Kory Allen and as always it's

good to be here with you today. Hope that you're doing good, hope that you're feeling good,

hope the things are going well in your life. Today on the show I am going to talk about

overthinking. overthinking is one of those things that we all deal with and there's a lot

of perspectives on it and I want to share one that might be helpful for you going for

the next time that you get stuck in a overthinking kind of rumination loop. So first off,

just kind of think about a definition of how overthinking feels and why it feels the way it does,

when you use this analogy. So imagine that you had two parents sitting in front of you,

both of your parents and they are both in very firm tones giving you instructions and this is

if you're a child, right? One of them is telling you to go to your room because you've done

something wrong and you're going to be punished. The other parent is telling you to go outside and

play with the new toy that they purchased you for a reward for being good. The both of them

are saying this to you at the same time and because you see those parental figures as authority figures,

you're unable to make a decision because you can't choose the correct answer because when

you do that, you disrespect the other parent. Therefore, there's no correct answer and you just

find yourself feeling stuck. That's how overthinking operates in our minds to a large degree except for

these parental figures are our intellect and our intuition. So because we kind of are trained to

respect, you know, the voices we hear in a certain way, the flow of our own mind has a certain authority

to it that it seems almost like a authority figure. It feels like, oh, this is what I'm thinking,

this is what's arising. So I have to listen to it. It must be right and kind of who am I to

dismiss those thoughts. And so one of our overthinking, we have what's the feeling that's arising

from our intuition. And then we also have the chatter of our intellect moving by at the same time.
