When Your Mind Won’t Switch Off

A mind that won’t slow down is a mind that doesn’t feel safe.

### Signs:

• Looping thoughts

• Over-analysis

• Night-time anxiety

• Imagining worst-case scenarios

### Why it happens:

Your nervous system is still on alert mode.

### Gentle steps:

• Slow exhale breathing

• Write down thoughts to “park” them

• Reduce screen time before bed

• Tell your brain: “We can think tomorrow.”

Calm comes from safety, not force.
