Be kind to yourself; you’re doing the best you can
It’s hard to believe I’m doing my best when things are tough. Challenge this by considering all the ways things could be worse. Recognize your efforts, even small ones, and remember you’re doing your best with the tools you have in this moment. Be kind to yourself.

Imagine your overthinking as leaves on a stream, watch them float by and stay serene
Remember, thoughts are not facts. Just because a thought enters your mind doesn’t mean it’s true or helpful. Instead of getting caught up in overthinking, practice letting those thoughts drift away. Stay present and focus on what’s happening in the here and now.
