I’ve been meditating for almost 11 years now and it is a life saver. I started meditating 10 years ago after waking up from a coma. You learn how to relax and calm your thoughts, it’s very therapeutic and there is so many apps to choose from now but I highly recommend the daily CALM app with Jay Shetty who is my favorite Genius. He also has his own app called Genius and it has hundreds of videos and live meditation sessions where he teaches you about your thoughts and how to breathe to help reduce stress,anxiety and depression. I highly recommended you give it a try. I think right now he’s offering $1 dollar to try it out for a month.

Grounding techniques?
I can't focus on anything but my thoughts. I'm so inside my head, and my mom always tells me to focus on my body and my surroundings, but I can't, or maybe I just don't know how. I try to, but it doesn't help. The thoughts are still there :(

What are some techniques to stop a spiral?
I’ve recently been having the spiraling intrusive thoughts coming up out of seemingly nowhere. Well not exactly nowhere, having some relationship issues but the thoughts will just randomly show up when I’m clam home reading a book.

Sitting w/ uncertainty and your thoughts..then ?
Hello everyone! I’m starting to recognize when my thoughts begin to spiral, when i’m seeking reassurance or checking. But I still have the sense of uneasiness and anxiety. I was wondering what others do that allow them to move forward with their day when they realize this? I don’t know if I’m making sense, but what are ways you pull the focus back to the present and yourself? Like besides saying “maybe or maybe not”, more like what do you do with yourself after you recognize the thoughts? I feel like I’m at a “now what?” and don’t know what to do with my anxious energy. I’m trying to find something physical to help me so if you also have any hobbies or interests that help I would love to hear it.
