How to Stop Obsessive Thoughts/Overthinking
Nothing can dim the light that shines from within.
Obsessive means repetitive thought pattern. Sexual violence, mistrust, unsafe environment. Precaution is another cause.
Marriage partner insecurity

(obsessive-compulsive disorder) OCD; fear of dirt germs (contamination)
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is characterized by persistent and excessive worry about a number of different things.

The first step of hypnosis, a hypnotic induction is the process that a hypnotist uses to put the client into a state where they are more open to suggestion (known as trance).

Hypnotic Inductions
Make yourself comfortable.
Lay down.
Count down in your head.
Controlled breathing.
Relax & tense muscles.
Speak in a soft tone.Self-hypnosis is a harmless way to keep control and achieve many of the same benefits of working with a hypnotherapist to change behavior.
There are no drugs involved, no medical procedures, and no perfect conditions you have to achieve. Just practice and your mind will start to cooperate.
The first step is to find a quiet place you can sit for about five minutes and be uninterrupted. You don’t want a ringing phone, needy kids, or your boss walking in on you. For some people, sitting in a parked car (with the doors locked and safety first) or stepping into a public bathroom stall for a few minutes could work. Otherwise, find a spot you like where you feel safe and can sit comfortably. Make sure that your back is supported and you are not liable to fall over once you start to become relaxed.
Start by uncrossing your legs and allowing your hands to rest comfortably in your lap. Once you are comfortable, begin by taking a deep breath. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth, very gently and very calmly. Focus on the breath, imagine you can see it going in, and see it coming out. Take two more deep breaths and on the third breath, when you are breathing out, close your eyes.
Sit there for a couple of minutes just allowing your breath to go in and out and focusing all of your attention on your breath. Every time you want to think a thought, or check the time, or get up and tend to a matter, gently push that thought away and come back to your breath. Do nothing other than breathe.
Once you are fully relaxed and focused on your breath, allow your body to get very heavy wherever you are sitting. Notice your legs and your arms becoming weighted down and almost glued to the chair. It’s a comfortable state and overall a very relaxing one, as you just give in to your body weight and allow yourself to sink into wherever you are sitting.
Once you are very relaxed, in your mind gently repeat a positive mantra such as: “I am calm, I am in control, I am relaxed.” Repeat this mantra over and over, or find one that resonates with you. The language should be “I” language and should be positive and encouraging but also soothing. Repeat this over and over and allow your body to give in to the relaxation and calm feelings you are generating.
When you have reached your five minutes (you may have to use a timer the first session, but over time your mind will let you know when five minutes are up), you will start to feel energy returning to your body, you will focus on each limb and body part and send energy and confidence to that part, and you will take three more deep breaths, again in through your nose and out through your mouth. Count slowly backward from 10 to one and when you reach the count of one, open your eyes. Allow yourself to sit there for a couple of minutes and enjoy the positive experience of giving yourself this valuable time.
