@drleewarren: You have been managing your anxiety, chronic pain, depression, etc. for so long that part of you has decided this is just how your brain is. The neuroscience research has some surprising news for you. Neuroscience research is consistent: large, sudden improvements in long-term anxiety, other mental health issues, and even physical improvements in certain conditions, almost always follow one specific shift. It happens the person stops treating the anxiety as a permanent fact and starts treating it as something that can be updated. Basically, the research shows that until you believe that healing is possible, it is generally not possible. That means that your belief systems are incredibly important if you want to look into the future with any kind of hope that things can be better than they are now. That's what the Bible was talking about when Jesus said,“Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” (Mark 11:24) He's not promising that you'll get everything you pray for, but he's telling you that what you believe when you pray makes a huge difference. The 21st-century neuroscience agrees: until you believe that you can get better, you will not get better. Whether it takes years of doing the work or you achieve, rapid improvement, healing never happens until you believe that it's possible for it to happen. Make that change today, and you'll unlock your own ability to achieve healing, hope, and higher performance. Save this for the next time your brain is bossing you around. And share it with a friend who needs to know that what they believe matters. Follow me for connections every day between neuroscience and faith that will help you unlock healing, hope, and higher performance.

Belief is everything!

Faith of a mustard seed

I’m using “self brain surgery” to encourage and help some of my patients - with Biblical references. Blessings my friend.

JD vibes :

Yes, learning to walk by faith and not by sight is a process…. Start with mustard seed faith… taking mini steps (baby steps)….true story.

Mozelle :

This is frustrating because what about people with real big illnesses like my dad. Pastor all his life ( which means little ) but big man of faith. Not cured and there is no cure. I think there is a difference in believing He can make you better and if it’s His will.

I spent decades in addiction trying to numb physical and spiritual pain. Learning how to forgive sets more than the offender free.

You are changing the game for chronic pain patients, mental health patients, and SO many others. Thank you for using your platform to spread HOPE ❤️

As a nurse when I would have pre-open heart patients I would tell them that the recovery can be difficult if you don't stay positive. The heart surgery itself can cause depression. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and cast your cares on Him.

Shana Blackstone :

Amen 🙌🙌
