Ruminating Brain Patterns

Ruminating brain patterns often lead individuals to dwell on past mistakes, missed opportunities, and regrets, creating self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy. This pattern can also involve revising history and imagining unrealistic outcomes, contributing to negative self-perception. Additionally, the ruminating brain tends to measure and compare, leading to constant feelings of being inadequate compared to others. Overcoming these patterns requires practicing mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy to observe thoughts rather than believe them, shifting the focus towards self-compassion and self-acceptance.
