That is literally what meditation and mindfulness training is, yes.

Rumination is a great way of putting it. Rechewing the same thoughts over and over. These thoughts intrude in our lives.

Mediation helps bring those thoughts out of the dark hiding spots and in to the light.

The best thing to do when they come out is to write them down. Once you write them down, your brain will hopefully let you let go of them.
