How to Stop Overthinking

Half Day Meditation Course Cape Town
Join us on this half day meditation course to explore how meditation, inspired by Buddha’s understanding of the mind, can help calm restless thoughts, improve clarity and reduce stress.
Do you find it hard to still your mind and just let go? While we all need to think – to reflect, understand, make decisions and so on – sometimes we can end up overthinking. Our thoughts become circular, negative, unclear or stuck. We find it hard to ‘switch off’, which can be exhausting and unproductive.
In this half day meditation Course we discover that Buddha’s insight into the nature and function of the mind can really help. Certain meditations in particular can help us to balance our mind, to think more clearly and to feel calm as we navigate our busy, modern world with all its stress and stimulation. We will learn the essential steps to pacify our restless mind in meditation. We can then use these same skills to prevent our mental chatter consuming our energy and attention in daily life. Let’s learn to take some control over our mind instead of our mind controlling us.
No prior meditation experience or Buddhist background necessary. Everyone is welcome!
