Three ideas that might help:

Writing. Not writing with a particular goal. I also recommend writing with pen and paper. No judgement on what you are writing just the open hearted willingness to discover more.

Meditation: a simple mindfulness meditation 20 minutes per day can calm the mind jabber.or monkey mind as some who meditate say.

Tea: sometimes those thoughts can be painful, frightening and we want to push them away. Instead, befriend them. Invite them in for "tea". Be curious about them as you would be about a new person, experience or opportunity. Not easy but who knows what might be revealed as helpful or comforting.
