Today's wellness insight 61 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,799 Speaker 2: is good news. It's good news to know that learning 62 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 2: something new is like giving your brain a burst of 63 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 2: fresh oxygen. Studies show that learning something new boosts dopamine. 64 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 2: That's your brain's motivation chemical and it strengthens the neural 65 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 2: connections that help you to stay sharp and resilience. And 66 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 2: it doesn't have to be something big or life changing 67 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 2: type of a skill. Whether it's cooking a new recipe, 68 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 2: planting a flower you've never grown before, or maybe trying 69 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 2: your hand at music, Novelty is the key ingredient for 70 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 2: emotional wellness. Psychologists have found that perfectionism loses its grip 71 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 2: when we're in a quote unquote learning mindset. So if 72 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 2: you're somebody like me that tends to always want to 73 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 2: do things well or rites, but gets exhausting when you 74 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 2: try something new, you give your brain a break. Your 75 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 2: brain will release that dopamine boost and it'll help you 76 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,239 Speaker 2: enjoy the process when you have that learning mindset instead 77 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 2: of fearing mistakes. So write it down, schedule it, let 78 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 2: yourself savor the feeling of beginner's joy. That's what it's called. 79 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 2: When you give yourself permission to just learn, not to 80 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 2: do it perfectly, but when you're a beginner, of course, 81 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 2: we're not gonna do things personally. You're just learning on 82 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:40,799 Speaker 2: these skill You're creating new joy pathways in your heart 83 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 2: and mind. Well, this hits me personally because I discovered 84 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 2: Beginner's Joy during one of the hardest seasons of my life. 85 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 2: I was experiencing severe panic attacks. I'm telling you, it 86 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 2: was like every two hours at night. Was having these 87 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 2: panic attacks out of the blue. And my PTSD therapist 88 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 2: told me he didn't know how long the healing would take, 89 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 2: that we would need to unpack the painful childhood memories 90 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 2: I buried for years, and it was going to take 91 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 2: some time. And I never had had attacks before. Now, 92 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 2: the panic attacks, they could strike me anywhere, while I 93 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 2: was driving, standing in the grocery aisle, or even waking 94 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 2: up at night. What confused me most was that they 95 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 2: began during one of the happiest seasons in my life. 96 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 2: I just received my first book contract, I was happily married, 97 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 2: and I just gave birth to my second baby boy. 98 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 2: And I remember wondering, why is this happening now? Unfortunately, 99 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 2: a church counselor suggested maybe there's an area that you're 100 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 2: not trusting God with, and friend that filled me with 101 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 2: so much guilt. Was I doing something wrong? Was I 102 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 2: not trusting God enough? So I called Pastor Doug. He 103 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: was a retired pastor who had known me when I 104 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 2: was single and had married Eric and me. I asked 105 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 2: Pastor Doug, why would God allow me to have panic 106 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 2: attacks when I've served him faithfully and I'm finally so happy. 107 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 2: And Pastor Doug reminded me of David in the Bible. 108 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 2: David hadn't done anything wrong when Saul chased him into 109 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 2: the wilderness. God had already anointed him king. Yet David 110 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: still found himself hiding in caves, afraid for his life. 111 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: Then Pastor Doug told me something I will never forget. 112 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 2: He said, maybe there's something God wants to experience with 113 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: you in this wilderness, something he can show you here 114 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:58,319 Speaker 2: that he couldn't show you anywhere else. And something huge 115 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 2: shifted inside me. My panic attacks didn't mean I had 116 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:08,079 Speaker 2: done something wrong. Maybe my childhood wounds were a new 117 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 2: mission field God was inviting me to enter with him. 118 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 2: So this is how I prayed. Okay, God, I served 119 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 2: you when I was strong and healthy, and I'll walk 120 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 2: with you now in this season of healing too, however 121 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 2: long it takes. Just show me what you want to 122 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 2: show me, and I will follow you even here. Since 123 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 2: I didn't know how long the healing would take I 124 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 2: decided to learn something i'd always wanted to try. It's 125 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 2: a musical instrument called the er Who. It's a traditional 126 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 2: Chinese instrument with only two strings. The Chinese violin is 127 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 2: like a violin. The err Who has this beautiful, sweet, 128 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 2: almost sorrowful sound that has always touched my heart. And 129 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 2: I heard it always as a child as I walked 130 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 2: the streets of Chinatown. Now, i'd always assumed that I 131 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 2: had missed my chance. Music lessons are for kids, right, 132 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 2: That's how I always thought. And I'm an adult. I'm 133 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 2: a mom. But I decided to become a beginner. As 134 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: I learned more about calling my nervous system, I also 135 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 2: discovered how learning something new gives our brains break, gives 136 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 2: us a boost because of novelty. And so I decided, 137 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 2: I'm going to try to learn the er Who. Learning 138 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 2: the er Who became my way of putting feet to 139 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 2: faith during a difficult season. Now, my first teacher was 140 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 2: extremely talented, but she was so critical, and pretty soon 141 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 2: I started thinking, Oh my goodness, maybe I am too old, 142 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 2: my fingers are stiff, my brain is too slow. But 143 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 2: then I realized, wait a minute, maybe I don't need 144 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 2: to stop my er who lessons. I just need a 145 00:10:54,760 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: different teacher. So I went to a music school for children. 146 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 2: I figured if a teacher loves teaching children, she might 147 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 2: enjoy teaching me. So I asked the music school, would 148 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 2: any of your teachers be willing to teach an adult 149 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 2: for private lessons and friends. That's how I found the 150 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:20,719 Speaker 2: sweetest teacher. This teacher smiled. She's encouraging, and even though 151 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 2: I learned at a snail's pace, I loved going to 152 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 2: my lessons because the gift wasn't becoming an amazing Urhu player. 153 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 2: The gift was learning to enjoy being a beginner. That 154 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 2: is a way to walk with Jesus by faith during 155 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 2: hard times is to enjoy being a beginner. I needed 156 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 2: an encouraging voice to help me let go of perfectionism 157 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 2: and discover joy again. Now, how about your friend? Is 158 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 2: there something you've always wanted to learn, but you've been 159 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 2: waiting until life gets easier or more settled. Maybe God, 160 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 2: it isn't asking you to wait until the storm's over, friend, 161 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 2: Maybe it's the little spark of curiosity and creativity is 162 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 2: how God wants to bring you joy right in the 163 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 2: middle of life storms. Or maybe you have tried something 164 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: once and it was so discouraging. What if you simply 165 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 2: need a kinder way to begin again, a different way 166 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 2: Psalm nine our breath prayers says, I will sing a 167 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 2: new song to you, Oh God, I will make music 168 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 2: to you. I love that scripture says a new song. 169 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 2: God created us with the capacity to discover, create, learn, 170 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 2: and delight in something new.
