Yoga and meditation alone do not help you to handle the over thinking habit and it doesn't motivate you directly, to gain your self confidence.. It is better to understand the reason for these and then to work on the solutions.. I suggest you to consult a therapist to handle the above issues..

I appreciate that you are approaching professionals to take guidance. I am assuming that you must be facing something tough and you are aware about it also taking care of it. There are many videos and guidelines of meditations you will find on YouTube. There are also different types of apps you can get it from your Play Store. If still you find difficult you can always approach to psychologist to balance your emotions. You can also contact me through practo app.

Hi dear thanks for your approach to us. I hope you are doing well.. Yes yoga can help to deal your problems, but I am not sure how far you have the knowledge in asanas like adhomuka swanasana, bujangasana, obviously Surya namaskara and there are different breathing exercises, I can suggest you Chandra breathing, along with normal anuloma /viloma exercise, Bhastrika and others. But PLEASE UNDERSTAND if you are not sure of this don't do seeing Google or video, it is done under the experts. With related to meditation I won't suggest now because certain times, thoughts process could increase, more over you won't be able to focus, as you have mentioned about over thinking. Therefore you work on triggerance of thought process, reason for over thinking (what & why is making ), yes it could have been habituated after a while / certain situation. Work on yourself in different areas (explore) on expectations, career, focus and others. Take care, you can cope with counselling and therapy..

Next Steps

Visit psychologists for better guidance.
