It's All-In August!
The more you think about something, the more easily it returns to your mind in the future. Synapses that fire together, wire together. This is why negative thinking is so harmful: it automates negativity in your brain. Change it to something positive!

| Darwin Has a Molecule Problem, with Dr. Michael Behe (Self-Brain Surgery Saturday) | 13 Apr 2024 | 01:00:08 | |
It's Self-Brain Surgery Saturday! My guest today is Dr. Michael Behe. He is a biochemist from Lehigh University, and his incredible book is Darwin's Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution. Discussing the book in the New Yorker in May 2005, H. Allen Orr said of Behe, "He is the most prominent of the small circle of scientists working on intelligent design, and his arguments are by far the best known." From one end of the spectrum to the other, Darwin's Black Box has established itself as the key text in the Intelligent Design movement - the one argument that must be addressed in order to determine whether Darwinian evolution is sufficient to explain life as we know it, or not. For this edition, Behe has written a major new Afterword tracing the state of the debate in the decade since it began. It is his first major new statement on the subject and will be welcomed by the thousands who wish to continue this intense debate.

| The Opposite of Depression, with Dr. David Carreon | 09 Apr 2024 | 00:48:18 | |
The Opposite of Depression Is Not Just Feeling Better, It's Leaning to Live Better Dr. David Carreon is a psychiatrist and expert on helping people with depression learn not just to feel better, but to actually learn to live fulfilling lives. And what he's learned will help all of us become healthier, feel better, and be happier in our lives. Even if you're not depressed, many people are simply worn out and weary. Dr. Carreon's work will offer hope for weariness and those who long to live a life of flourishing as well. This conversation covers a lot of ground- clinical psychiatry, the perils of depression and weariness, the role of medications, the devastation and risk factors for suicide, faith, the importance of community, and much more. Dr. Carreon's Book: The Opposite of Depression: What My Work with Suicidal Patients Has Taught Me about Life, Hope, and How to Flourish by David Carreon, MD Learn more about Dr. Carreon and his work with transcranial magnetic stimulation here. Book Preview from Tyndale.comThere’s hope for greater satisfaction, purpose and joy in your life, even if circumstances have you down…. Stanford-trained psychiatrist David Carreon, MD, reveals what it takes to move from nagging disappointment, dissatisfaction, or depression to a life of thriving. One of the pioneers of the use of an intense form of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in severely depressed patients, Dr. Carreon was astonished by how quickly and dramatically most of them recovered. But he also saw very clearly that just eliminating the symptoms of depression wasn't enough. To live a truly fulfilling life, his patients needed to leave old habits behind and embrace the patterns of flourishing. In The Opposite of Depression, he draws on insights from his clinical experience, the latest research, and his Christian faith to point readers to principles and practices that promote thriving in mind, body and soul. Each chapter offers practical steps readers can take to start moving in the direction of greater satisfaction, fulfillment and purpose. Leave a voicemail with your question or comment!

| Break Free from Self-Doubt with Leanne Ellington | 01 Apr 2024 | 00:42:16 | |
It's Mind Change Monday, and Leanne Ellington is going to help us jump into Action April! In her own words, she describes her faith journey: Picture this: a skeptical, bacon-loving, Hebrew-speaking Jew, embarking on a quest to explore faith after a transformative 100-pound weight loss and a series of "quarter-life crisis".It began with a whisper in my heart: "I think I might want God?!" But not wanting to go back to the old days of temple and rabbi sermons, I found a non-denominational church in vibrant Nashville, TN that turned into a miraculous journey that filled a void in my spiritual landscape and met ME in my skepticism, doubt, and curiosity in all aspects of life. All of a sudden this "God guy" that everyone ELSE was talking about that I had never met, and frankly never cared to meet… ...suddenly appeared to ME --and revealed, completed, and healed parts of my story I didn't even know needed attention.
You're going to love this one!

| The Ten Commandments of Self-Brain Surgery (Mind Change Monday) | 04 Mar 2024 | 00:24:36 | |
It's Mind Change Monday! I've received many requests for a new presentation of The Ten Commandments of Self-Brain Surgery. So, here they are! As I write my next book, tentatively titled Self-Brain Surgery: How to Rewire Your Brain, Reorder Your Mind, and Radically Transform Your Life, these may change or reorder a little as I determine the best way to work them into a format that will fit nicely into book form. But here they are, which is a perfect way to start Mind Change March! These ten principles will help you become healthier, feel better, and be happier in your life. —I must relentlessly refuse to participate in my own demise. —I must believe that feelings are not facts, they are chemical events in my brain. —I must believe that most of my automatic thoughts are untrue. —I must believe that my brain is designed to heal. —I must love tomorrow more than I hate how I feel right now. —I must stop making an operation out of everything. —I must not perpetuate generational thought or behavioral issues in my family, or start any new ones. —I must love my brain and live in such a way as to improve it. —I must believe that I’m getting better at what I’m doing. —I must understand that thoughts become things.
