Why You Can’t Stop Overthinking (The Truth About Your Emotions)

Описание: *Video Description:*
Do you feel stuck in a loop of overthinking, or do you find yourself constantly judging others? The truth is, *95% of "overthinking" is actually just an unprocessed emotion wearing a rational disguise.*

In this video, we explore the teachings of Joe Hudson on how to stop resisting your feelings and start living authentically. We dive into **The Golden Algorithm**, which reveals that when you avoid an emotion, you actually invite more of it into your life—for example, avoiding conflict leads to people-pleasing, which creates even more inner conflict.

*What you will learn:*
*Why fear of an emotion is the emotion itself:* Fear of sadness is simply sadness, and it is your *resistance to the feeling* that makes it painful.
*How to identify emotional blind spots:* Learn why "hard decisions" are often just emotions you don't want to feel.
*The Actor Method:* How to embody a feeling without identifying with it or being hijacked by your nervous system.
*Welcoming Resistance:* If you can’t welcome an emotion, learn to sit with the resistance like you would a **scared child**—patiently and without judgment.

Stop believing the "stories" your emotions tell you and start listening to what your body is actually experiencing.

To understand this better, think of your **emotions like houseguests**. If you lock the door and ignore them, they will just knock louder and eventually try to break a window to get your attention; however, if you open the door and let them sit in the living room without letting them take over the house, they will eventually leave on their own.
