Keeping a journal and meditation both really helped me in the early days with spinning thoughts. The meditation helps calm them a little and the journaling helps get them out of your brain. I don't journal much nowadays, but I do still meditate - particularly when I find my stress levels rising.
Did you carry on with the yoga? I really recommend that...
