Breaking Out of Rumination
5-Week Online Course in
Practical Ways to Disrupt Negative, Obsessive Thoughts
STARTS MAY 9
It’s normal and healthy for us to process our experiences emotionally. But sometimes we get stuck – returning to painful memories, worries, or disturbing thoughts, over, and over, and over.
This is rumination. While it’s common and normal, it’s not helpful or productive, and it can be frustrating and limiting. We spend a lot of time thinking… without making any real progress.
This is one of the most common issues I see from people in my practice and teaching. So that’s why I put together this 5-week online course focused on practical skills for disrupting these negative thought patterns, letting them go, and moving past them.
The Ruminations I’ll Help You Tackle:
Anxious thoughts about health problems, bad things that could happen, or contamination.
Angry thoughts about grievances with others, focusing on how someone wronged you.
Sad, guilty thoughts about regrets, things you’ve done wrong, or opportunities missed.
Repetitive self-criticism and thoughts of shame or inadequacy about yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a self-paced series, or do I need to watch it at a specific time?
This session will run for 5 weeks starting May 9, and we encourage participants to follow along, watching specific sessions each week, followed by a meeting with your discussion group.
However, if this does not work with your schedule, most of the teaching materials are pre-recorded and can be taken at your own pace.
Is this program for everyone?
The Breaking Out of Rumination workshop is an educational workshop for the general public.
This workshop is not psychotherapy, nor treatment for any physical or mental health condition. Participants take responsibility for their own experience in the workshop.
The Breaking Out of Rumination workshop could be a useful resource for normal range experiences of anxiety, blue mood, stress, loneliness, and interpersonal conflicts, including for people in psychotherapy for these concerns.
If you are engaging in psychotherapy while engaging this workshop, please tell your therapist.
Last, if you have serious psychological issues or a history of suicidality, complex trauma, psychosis, or other severe mental health issues, you should consider not participating in the Breaking Out of Rumination workshop as it could stir things up for you without there being the option of individual support – and we strongly advise that you seek professional treatment.
