Did you know you can actually rewire your brain?

Yep! You can change your thoughts, behaviors and default reactions by renewing your mind.

In science, this is called neuroplasticity. Neuro meaning brain and plasticity meaning the ability to be easily shaped or molded.

Yep! Your brain was made to reshape and remold itself.

So be encouraged! You are not stuck in your current thoughts and behaviors. Your brain is for you not against you! You can change how your brain is wired by intentionally pursuing growth to reorder and reorganize your thoughts.

How do you do this? Here’s a few ways:

• Learn a new ability or skill (this pushes you beyond your default neural networks (ways of thinking) to establish new connections and patterns in your mind)
• Be mindful and intentional about your environment (shift into places that require you to think and respond in a new way. Choose places, spaces and people that are life-giving and edifying to your goals)
• Practice, Practice, Practice (and don’t just go through the motions. Endeavor to practice well and establish good, healthy habits)
• Reduce psychological stress (your body is hard wired for survival. Stress triggers a fight, flight or freeze response. Chronic stress weakens brain development and the ability to make neurological changes)
• Meditate (as a person thinks so are they! What you put into your mind will manifest in your behaviors)

You can be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Start today! Little by little, a little becomes a lot!

Love always,
