Breaking the Habit of Overthinking: Rumination, Cognitive Bypassing, and the Insight Trap

Breaking the Habit of Overthinking: Rumination, Cognitive Bypassing, and the Insight Trap

Why does knowing we overthink not help us stop? Dr. Rick and Forrest discuss why rumination becomes a self-reinforcing habit, and why insight alone rarely helps. They distinguish between rumination and reflection, and talk about how balancing acceptance and agency can help us go from one to the other. Forrest talks about the relationship between overthinking and feelings of disappointment and failure, and Rick shares practical ways to interrupt the cycle, shift into more concrete forms of problem-solving, and finally stop ruminating.
