It's Self-Brain Surgery Saturday!You have an incredible gift: you can choose to think about what you think about. The question is, what will you do with that gift?In this episode, we learn the self-brain surgery of calming our minds and learning to direct the show of what happens in our thought life. You get this right, and you'll become healthier, feel better, and be happier. If you don't, you'll bounce around from circumstance to circumstance, and they will lead you into a progressively more cynical and negative life. The good news is, it's so easy to learn how to change that program into one that blesses you and others, and leads you to hope.Scripture: Psalm 37Support and boost your immune system with Armra!
