Rewire Your Brain from Negative Thinking
You know that person at the supermarket who turns to you in line and says, “have you seen how the prices keep going up?” In one sentence, they oozed their negativity onto you. And the truth is, people do this all day around us, and most of us have learned to do it too. So in this episode, I’m sharing the one minute practice I use every day to rewire my brain from negative thinking and change the energy I carry into a room.
Anxiety is climbing in us, in our teens, and in the air around us. In fact, so much of it comes back to a brain doing exactly what evolution designed it to do, scanning for what could go wrong. Meanwhile, we replay the past for the things we said wrong. Then we worry about the future. And in our present moment, we hunt for problems. If you’ve ever caught yourself stuck in that buzzing, hypervigilant loop, this one is for you. Most of us never learned how to operate the supercomputer between our ears, so most days, it ends up running the show.
Here is what I want you to hear, warrior. Breaking this habit isn’t a self-help indulgence. Instead, it is a responsibility. The energy you walk around in matters. In fact, it influences your kids, your partner, and the strangers you pass at school pick-up. Right now, the common energy out there is heavy, but you don’t have to add to it. And there’s another way. It starts with sixty seconds a day. So press play and I’ll teach you.
