have done it for ever, not sure how to stop it, or if its even bad for me
You're not alone, most people have a continuous stream of negative thoughts running through their heads. The idea is to become aware of the pattern, to watch how you react and respond to events in your life, without judging if it's good or bad. Observe your thoughts as they occur, notice what brings them up, see if you are able to pause and let your mind chatter settle down. The invitation is to see if you are willing to look at things in a new way, to shift from old habits that happen automatically, and see if it changes your experience.
