How to Stop Overthinking In Its Tracks – A Biblical Practice for Returning to Godhead
by Team CurlyNikki.com
There is a simple practice that returns you to Truth, to Spirit, to quiet calm and center, without effort.
Scripture calls it emptying.
“He emptied Himself…”
Philippians 2:7
This is not self-erasure. It’s the laying down of the small, crowded self so that something larger can be known. An early saying echoes this truth in a different register:
“If you do not come to know yourselves, then you dwell in poverty, and you are poverty.” – Gospel of Thomas Saying 3
When we live as the small, separate, crowded self, we experience lack everywhere. Everything feels outside of us, even our own life. When the idea of that self is emptied, lack dissolves.
Here is the practice.
Pause.
And gently ask inwardly:
“What will my next thought be?”*
Then listen.
Do not force silence.
Do not push thoughts away.
Just listen.
A thought will arise.
When it does, write it down.
By writing it, the thought becomes an object in the scene… not the one who is seeing.
It loses its authority.
It takes its place out there with other things.
Then wait again.
Another thought may come.
Write that one down too.
In this way, thoughts pass like clouds, and you remain the sky.
If the mind feels crowded or tight, use a simple pointer,
a quiet arrow prayer:
“Godhead.”
Not as a word to repeat.
As a direction.
When you rest there, you may notice something subtle and profound:
your head is no longer small.
The whole world becomes your head.
There is more space than thought.
More awareness than story.
More Silence than noise.
This is not something you do.
It is something you notice.
And in that noticing, you are returned,
not to effort,
but to truth.
To Love.
To Wealth.
“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” – Galatians 2:20

*This practice is rooted in ancient Christian watchfulness (nepsis) and was articulated for modern audiences by Eckhart Tolle.
