Can't stop obsessing over a problem or mistake? Here's how to break the cycle.
Cognitively absorbing activities, such as completing a puzzle or holding a yoga pose, can help break the cycle of rumination.
Ideally, this should be an activity outside your wheelhouse, something you wouldn't usually do. An unusual-for-you activity will be absorbing and break you out of your thought process. They might feel enjoyable, but that's not the point. The point is just to snap you out of ruminating. Absorbing yourself in a simple but unfamiliar activity will help you calm down enough and break the hold of your ruminative thoughts enough that you can do a productive activity at the end.
