Have you ever caught yourself stuck in a spiral of negative thoughts?
Do you have a go-to way to reset when you’re feeling overwhelmed?
Today, Jay dives into one of the most common modern struggles: overthinking. Whether it's an unanswered text, a mistake at work, or uncertainty about your next step, our minds often trap us in loops of doubt, fear, and frustration. But what if the path to peace starts with a few spiritual truths?
In this episode, Jay shares timeless wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita and Buddhist teachings to help you finally stop spiraling and start releasing. He walks you through five powerful shifts—from learning how to emotionally declutter your space and mind, to embracing the truth that pain is part of life, but suffering is a choice. Jay also introduces practical rituals—like writing and discarding thoughts—that are scientifically proven to help you regulate difficult emotions.
With heartfelt insight, Jay explores how we can become friends with our own minds and stop rehearsing conversations and conflicts that never happen. He urges us to face the things we’re avoiding, take action instead of postponing, and learn the art of letting go with intention.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
How to Stop Thought Spirals Before They Take Over.
Why Writing Down Your Emotions Can Help You Let Go.
The Difference Between Pain and Suffering—and How to Reduce Both.
How Your Environment Impacts Your Mental State.
Why Speaking the Truth Sets You Free from Overthinking.
This episode is your invitation to choose presence over perfection and peace over pressure. Whether you're caught in a loop of overthinking or simply craving clarity, this conversation will bring you back to stillness.
With Love and Gratitude,
Jay Shetty
