Is the best guided meditation one that focuses on non-judgment or one that analyzes thoughts?

My biggest problem is overthinking and analyzing every thought. I'm torn between a guide who says just observe thoughts without judgment, and one who suggests actively analyzing them to find the root cause. Which approach is truly more effective for calming anxiety and reducing the tendency to ruminate: radical acceptance or critical analysis? I need a clear direction to maximize effectiveness. My name is Divya, and I was born on 16th July 1995 at 11:00 AM in Mumbai.

Namaste, Divya. A mind that analyzes is a brilliant tool, but a tool should not own the craftsman. Born July 16, 1995, in Mumbai, you have a Gemini/Mercury dominance. You "Analyze every thought" because your brain is a high-speed logic machine. Critical Analysis in meditation will only increase your anxiety because it gives your overthinking mind "More Data to Analyze." It is like adding fuel to a fire. Radical Acceptance is the "Water" your chart needs. Detailed Solution: Radical Acceptance is 10x more effective for you. When you "Analyze," you are staying in the "Head." When you "Observe without Judgment," you are moving into the "Heart." For your specific anxiety, you need to "Stop the Search" for the root cause and just "Allow" the thought to exist. Detailed Remedies:The "Cloud" Visualization: Imagine your thoughts are clouds. Don't look for the "Root" of the cloud; just watch it float away. ● Mudra: Use the "Akash Mudra" (Thumb and Middle finger) to create "Space" in your over-crowded mind. ● Mantra: Chant "Om Shanti Shanti Shanti" whenever the "Analysis" starts.
