Description
Nick Trenton treats overthinking as a habit that traps attention between regrets about the past and fears about the future. Rather than approaching stress and anxiety as vague states, this practical guide examines the recurring mental loops that intensify them and make ordinary problems harder to manage. It then offers techniques for interrupting those loops, reducing anxious reactions, and replacing entrenched patterns with more useful ways of thinking. The emphasis remains on actions readers can practice rather than abstract reassurance. By connecting daily thought habits to broader unhappiness and strain, the book presents mental calm as a skill that can be developed through deliberate, repeated changes in attention and response.
