WEBVTT - Conversations with A Brain Surgeon With Dr. Lee Warren - Part 2: Neuro-feelings

0:00:00.480 --> 0:00:04.439
<v Speaker 1>I won't let my body out me out wait everything

0:00:04.480 --> 0:00:07.960
<v Speaker 1>that I'm made, don't won't spend my life trying to change.

0:00:08.680 --> 0:00:13.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm learning love who I am again, strong, I feel free.

0:00:14.240 --> 0:00:18.920
<v Speaker 2>I know everybod of me it is beautiful.

0:00:19.480 --> 0:00:24.120
<v Speaker 1>And that will always out way if.

0:00:24.000 --> 0:00:24.479
<v Speaker 2>You feel it.

0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:24.840
<v Speaker 1>But you.

0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:29.840
<v Speaker 2>She'll some love to the HT there take you day

0:00:29.960 --> 0:00:33.200
<v Speaker 2>and did you and die out way?

0:00:35.280 --> 0:00:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Happy Saturday, outweigh. We are back with doctor Lee Warren

0:00:38.680 --> 0:00:41.440
<v Speaker 1>for our neuro series. Last week, if you missed it,

0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:44.000
<v Speaker 1>we talked all about the thoughts and how to think

0:00:44.080 --> 0:00:47.839
<v Speaker 1>about your thinking and really become a self surgeon so

0:00:47.880 --> 0:00:50.120
<v Speaker 1>that you can take radical ownership of your thoughts. And

0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:53.920
<v Speaker 1>this week we are going to be talking about feelings. Okay,

0:00:54.000 --> 0:00:57.440
<v Speaker 1>and so this idea that your brain is multiple switch

0:00:57.480 --> 0:01:00.800
<v Speaker 1>up a ball anytime if you have gotten stuck in

0:01:01.080 --> 0:01:03.080
<v Speaker 1>a loop of your feelings or feel like maybe you've

0:01:03.120 --> 0:01:06.440
<v Speaker 1>gotten downward spirals, we're going to dive into that. So

0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:09.520
<v Speaker 1>before we get into some of the cause and effect

0:01:09.560 --> 0:01:13.039
<v Speaker 1>of it, when you talk about self brain surgery, what

0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:16.360
<v Speaker 1>do you share with your listeners about the feeling side

0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:19.360
<v Speaker 1>of it, Because obviously we can take ownership of our brain,

0:01:19.680 --> 0:01:21.560
<v Speaker 1>So where do the feeling side of this come into

0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:22.959
<v Speaker 1>play because I think there's a lot of people that

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:25.280
<v Speaker 1>feel like they're almost a victim to their emotions.

0:01:25.600 --> 0:01:27.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're exactly right, Lee, And so the big thing,

0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:31.800
<v Speaker 2>as we teach is feelings aren't facts. They're chemical events

0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:34.520
<v Speaker 2>in your brain. So that's not to say that feelings

0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:37.880
<v Speaker 2>are bad, but the problem is that the human brain

0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:42.200
<v Speaker 2>has a limited palette of neurotransmitters, and those seven or

0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:45.800
<v Speaker 2>eight neurotransmitters generate all the things that are possible for

0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:48.320
<v Speaker 2>a human to feel. And so what that means is

0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 2>there's no discernible difference between what you feel internally, mentally,

0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:56.800
<v Speaker 2>or physiologically when there's a real threat to your life.

0:01:56.840 --> 0:01:59.200
<v Speaker 2>Say you know, a bear runs into your living room

0:01:59.240 --> 0:02:01.320
<v Speaker 2>and trust to eat you, or you wake up in

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:03.560
<v Speaker 2>the middle of the night and wonder if you're going

0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:05.160
<v Speaker 2>to get fired the next day at your job, and

0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 2>you get afraid, the same set of feelings right, the

0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:10.000
<v Speaker 2>hair stands up, your heart races, you feel cold. All

0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 2>that stuff happens because physiology is triggered by feeling. Feeling

0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:17.800
<v Speaker 2>is a chemical event in your brain. So the most

0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:19.960
<v Speaker 2>important thing to realize is that the things that I

0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:24.600
<v Speaker 2>feel do not automatically deserve to have credibility as representing

0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 2>actual current events that are actually happening. Most people don't

0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:32.560
<v Speaker 2>recognize that. In our society right now, we're inundated with

0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:34.720
<v Speaker 2>this idea that what you got to follow your feelings

0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:37.160
<v Speaker 2>and follow your heart and you fight for your feelings

0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 2>and all that stuff. And I'm just telling you from

0:02:38.760 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 2>a compassionate physician standpoint, that's a terrible way to live

0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:45.360
<v Speaker 2>your life because if you try to believe every feeling

0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:48.080
<v Speaker 2>that you have as if it's tied to something that's real,

0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:50.400
<v Speaker 2>what you're going to find is you're pursuing a lot

0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:52.560
<v Speaker 2>of things that don't pan out to be helpful to you.

0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:55.440
<v Speaker 2>And that's that's just a fact. So the way you

0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:57.280
<v Speaker 2>deal with it, the way we deal with it anyway,

0:02:57.320 --> 0:02:59.600
<v Speaker 2>and teach people to deal with it, is to say

0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:03.920
<v Speaker 2>understand that the way your brain is wired, feelings jumble

0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:06.160
<v Speaker 2>up with thoughts in an area of your brain called

0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:09.480
<v Speaker 2>the basal ganglia, and it's like putting a fuel injector

0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:11.840
<v Speaker 2>in your car and adding an additive to the gas. Like,

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:14.840
<v Speaker 2>once they mix up, you can't unmix them. So feelings

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 2>and thoughts tie together and you can't separate them, and

0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:20.440
<v Speaker 2>you have a part of your brain called the hippocampus

0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:24.240
<v Speaker 2>that ties in all these different areas that attach meaning

0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:28.720
<v Speaker 2>to the raw chemical signal of what you feel. So

0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:33.000
<v Speaker 2>basically you have a feeling like anxiety. For example, something

0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:36.440
<v Speaker 2>starts to physiologically make you feel like you're anxious, and

0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:40.680
<v Speaker 2>you basically pull in a memory and attach a meaning

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:44.080
<v Speaker 2>to that chemical trigger, and you tell yourself you hear

0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:46.320
<v Speaker 2>an internal thought. And we already covered last week and

0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 2>the idea that thoughts aren't always true. So you tie

0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:53.920
<v Speaker 2>in a previous experience with a similar feeling and you

0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:57.279
<v Speaker 2>attach a meaning to it as if it's the current experience.

0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.760
<v Speaker 2>And so basically what you're doing is you're not careful

0:04:00.800 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 2>and discerning about it is you'll start to think that

0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:05.000
<v Speaker 2>every time the hair goes up on the back of

0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:08.000
<v Speaker 2>my neck it means I'm about to be abused, or

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:10.760
<v Speaker 2>it means I'm about to have this problem occur again,

0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:13.280
<v Speaker 2>because that's what it meant the first time I felt it.

0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:15.880
<v Speaker 2>And so if you're not careful to say, wait a minute,

0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:17.680
<v Speaker 2>there's a real difference. And I know there's a difference

0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:20.800
<v Speaker 2>because intellectually, if you get your fronel lobes involved. You know,

0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:25.000
<v Speaker 2>let me give you a scenario. You feel you're heart racing,

0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:27.920
<v Speaker 2>you feel a little bit tingly, the hair stands up

0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:29.960
<v Speaker 2>on the back of your neck. You find your mouth

0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:33.360
<v Speaker 2>drying out. And it could be that you're about to

0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:36.359
<v Speaker 2>open a love letter from somebody that you hoped was

0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:38.440
<v Speaker 2>going to fall in love with you and find out

0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:40.680
<v Speaker 2>that your life's dream is about to come true, that

0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:43.800
<v Speaker 2>this person's going to marry you. Because that's a feeling

0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:46.840
<v Speaker 2>and a bunch of physiology that happens when you're anticipating

0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:50.680
<v Speaker 2>something wonderful, it could also mean that you're about to

0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:53.719
<v Speaker 2>find out that you're having a heart attack. Right, the

0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:57.800
<v Speaker 2>same set of chemical physiological things make you feel two

0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:00.279
<v Speaker 2>different things. It's the meaning that you attach to them

0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:03.240
<v Speaker 2>that tells the truth of what's happening, or that could

0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:06.200
<v Speaker 2>potentially tell the truth about what's happening. So the important

0:05:06.200 --> 0:05:10.720
<v Speaker 2>thing to learn is that physiology is triggered by the

0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:14.600
<v Speaker 2>parts of our brain that generate feeling, and we attach

0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 2>meaning to them based on prior experience. And the discernment

0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:19.720
<v Speaker 2>piece is where we have to say, wait a minute,

0:05:20.240 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 2>this feeling right now and this particular circumstance doesn't necessarily

0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:27.040
<v Speaker 2>mean that that previous bad thing is going to happen again.

0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:29.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and this is so relevant to people that are

0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:32.599
<v Speaker 1>struggling with a fired and wired experience alongside food of like,

0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:34.599
<v Speaker 1>when I feel sad, food will make me feel better,

0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:36.559
<v Speaker 1>or when I need comfort, food is what I need.

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:38.640
<v Speaker 1>And part of it is there's got to be that

0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:41.039
<v Speaker 1>pattern interrupt. It's funny because there's an inside joke with

0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:43.240
<v Speaker 1>my clients and I made up a word one time

0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:47.599
<v Speaker 1>called excited because of how similar anxiety and excitement feel.

0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I'm just excited because again, my nervous system

0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 1>really couldn't tell the difference between the two. I was

0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:57.120
<v Speaker 1>experiencing them very similarly physiologically. But that's what happens too

0:05:57.160 --> 0:05:59.600
<v Speaker 1>when we think we're in danger, if we've fired and wired,

0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:03.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, food, sugar, Netflix, whatever it is online shopping

0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:06.560
<v Speaker 1>wine to be the thing that fills those voids of

0:06:06.600 --> 0:06:09.520
<v Speaker 1>those feelings. Again, that hippocampus, I've heard it described as

0:06:09.520 --> 0:06:13.520
<v Speaker 1>the elephant that never forgets right until we change the picture,

0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:16.080
<v Speaker 1>until we change that fired and wired experience. So can

0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:17.760
<v Speaker 1>you just talk a little bit about that. So if

0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:21.600
<v Speaker 1>somebody has felt something for so long, and their brain

0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:24.279
<v Speaker 1>goes into a threat and they believe, they truly believe,

0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:26.520
<v Speaker 1>and again coming back to the thoughts that they're believing

0:06:26.839 --> 0:06:28.960
<v Speaker 1>that food and sugar is the only thing that will

0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:31.159
<v Speaker 1>make them feel better. You know, can you just kind

0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:33.039
<v Speaker 1>of tell us a little bit about what that looks

0:06:33.080 --> 0:06:35.120
<v Speaker 1>like to break that pattern through your eyes?

0:06:35.480 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 2>There's kind of three things we talk about, firing and wiring.

0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:40.760
<v Speaker 2>You're referencing something called Hebb's law, which is a principle

0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:44.480
<v Speaker 2>of neuroscience that says that neurons that fire together in

0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:48.840
<v Speaker 2>a particular pattern frequently begin to be wired synaptically so

0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:51.360
<v Speaker 2>that they automate that thing. So your brain's really good

0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:54.479
<v Speaker 2>at making things that you do a lot automated, so

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:56.960
<v Speaker 2>you don't have to think about them to make them happen.

0:06:57.000 --> 0:06:58.680
<v Speaker 2>It's like when you drive to work. The first time,

0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:00.240
<v Speaker 2>you have to think about every turn that you make,

0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:01.800
<v Speaker 2>But after you've done it a few times, you can

0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:05.200
<v Speaker 2>make that drive almost in your sleep because you've synaptically

0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:07.479
<v Speaker 2>wired the steps that you need to take to get

0:07:07.480 --> 0:07:11.560
<v Speaker 2>that drive done. So that's Heab's law. But the way

0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:15.560
<v Speaker 2>that synapsis can be broken and retrained and repurposed to

0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:18.880
<v Speaker 2>make new ones. To make new feelings and new connections

0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:21.800
<v Speaker 2>between those feelings is to apply two other elements, and

0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:25.040
<v Speaker 2>one is called attention density and one is called the

0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 2>quantum Zeno effects. These are big words, but basically in

0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:31.160
<v Speaker 2>quantum physics, there's a principle that the more you look

0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:33.440
<v Speaker 2>at something from a particular point of view, the more

0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:36.080
<v Speaker 2>it stays fixed in that state. And so what we

0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:39.160
<v Speaker 2>know is it's like having one of those cameras with

0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:41.480
<v Speaker 2>a really fast shutter speed. You can take a picture

0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:43.200
<v Speaker 2>of a hummingbird or something that looks like it's in

0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 2>slow motion. Right, the more you look at something, am

0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:48.840
<v Speaker 2>I still going to be pleased by this food choice?

0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Am I still going to be comforted by this alcohol?

0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:54.680
<v Speaker 2>And if I do this and feel this and recreate

0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:56.600
<v Speaker 2>that thing, is it going to make me feel that

0:07:56.680 --> 0:07:59.280
<v Speaker 2>comfort that it always does. The more you look at

0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:02.360
<v Speaker 2>it from that point of the more true it will stay. Right. So,

0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:04.440
<v Speaker 2>then when you fix that thing in a state of

0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:07.880
<v Speaker 2>being true, and then you wire it with Hebb's law

0:08:08.000 --> 0:08:10.040
<v Speaker 2>into this idea that I'm going to make a synapse

0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:12.800
<v Speaker 2>where now the next time I feel that anxiety, I'm

0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:14.920
<v Speaker 2>just going to eat the thing and I'm not going

0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:17.400
<v Speaker 2>to process it mentally. I'm just going to find myself

0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:19.960
<v Speaker 2>with the bag of Cheetos and the red stuff all

0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:22.400
<v Speaker 2>over my fingertips, and I don't even remember it happening,

0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:24.720
<v Speaker 2>but it happened because I wired that in because of

0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:28.040
<v Speaker 2>quantum zeno effective attending to it over and over and

0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:30.600
<v Speaker 2>Hebb's law, I've now wired that into a synapse. And

0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:32.960
<v Speaker 2>the third one is this thing called attention density, which

0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:36.440
<v Speaker 2>means the more you pay attention to something from a

0:08:36.480 --> 0:08:39.720
<v Speaker 2>particular point of view, the more you can't stop paying

0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:43.760
<v Speaker 2>attention to it consciously all the time. So basically, when

0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:46.600
<v Speaker 2>you think about something so much that it becomes the

0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:48.880
<v Speaker 2>thing that you think you have to think about, then

0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:50.800
<v Speaker 2>your front lope says, Okay, I guess it's my job

0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:52.480
<v Speaker 2>to think about this all the time. So I'm going

0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:54.000
<v Speaker 2>to think about when do I get the next meal.

0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:55.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to think about when do I satisfy my

0:08:56.000 --> 0:08:58.520
<v Speaker 2>craving again. I'm going to think about when this person

0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:01.120
<v Speaker 2>lets me down inevitably or stock up on the thing

0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:03.720
<v Speaker 2>that I eat or drink or Netflix or whatever it

0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:06.520
<v Speaker 2>is that I do to make myself feel better about that,

0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:09.480
<v Speaker 2>convince myself that that's a better way to feel. So

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:12.800
<v Speaker 2>you've taken these three scientific principles and you've turned them

0:09:12.800 --> 0:09:15.360
<v Speaker 2>into ways to harm yourself. We talked last time about

0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:18.640
<v Speaker 2>self malpractice, and the way to fix it is the

0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:22.480
<v Speaker 2>very same process. Is we stop believing the automatic thought

0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:25.280
<v Speaker 2>that this action is going to produce a better feeling

0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:27.080
<v Speaker 2>for me, because I can see that it's harming me.

0:09:27.360 --> 0:09:29.520
<v Speaker 2>So now I'm going to have to really get some

0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:32.240
<v Speaker 2>attention density working on my side. Now I'm going to

0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:34.679
<v Speaker 2>have to choose to pay attention to the new thing

0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:37.920
<v Speaker 2>that I want to create significantly over and over and

0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:40.680
<v Speaker 2>pay attention to it and wire it together so that

0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:43.280
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden, I'll start finding that I've got

0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:45.920
<v Speaker 2>a better habit, i start finding that I've finally overcome

0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:48.600
<v Speaker 2>a little bit. And the problem with synapses is they're

0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:51.200
<v Speaker 2>like ruts in a wagon trail. Like it's really hard

0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:53.760
<v Speaker 2>once the tires get down in that rut, it's hard

0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:55.600
<v Speaker 2>to get them out, and it's easy for them to

0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:58.439
<v Speaker 2>fall back in. The ruts don't go away really fast.

0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:02.880
<v Speaker 2>So we've got to really diligently make ourselves create these

0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:06.320
<v Speaker 2>new thought pathways that will eventually wire and create new

0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:09.480
<v Speaker 2>synapses and well over time will deepen those ruts and

0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:12.000
<v Speaker 2>make new wagon trails that are better than the old ones.

0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:15.160
<v Speaker 2>And then the neat thing is there's something called microglia,

0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:19.240
<v Speaker 2>these little cells in your brain that chew up synapses basically,

0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:22.560
<v Speaker 2>so that over time, if you create a new habit

0:10:22.640 --> 0:10:25.320
<v Speaker 2>and stop the old one, you will start to break

0:10:25.360 --> 0:10:28.920
<v Speaker 2>down those old wagon trails, and those those ruts will

0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:31.360
<v Speaker 2>get shallower, and it'll be harder and harder to fall

0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:34.760
<v Speaker 2>back into that old habit, and you'll literally recreate your

0:10:34.800 --> 0:10:37.959
<v Speaker 2>brain in a healthier way by learning how to harness

0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:39.400
<v Speaker 2>that helps law for your benefit.

0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:41.240
<v Speaker 1>And that's why a lot of this food and body

0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:43.960
<v Speaker 1>stuff can be kind of sneaky and insidious because a

0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:47.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of times it's very unconscious. People aren't consciously saying like, oh,

0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:49.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm sad, so therefore food will make me feel better

0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:51.720
<v Speaker 1>like you said, they're just looking down and they have

0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:55.560
<v Speaker 1>orange cheetoh fingerprints, right. And then it's also not a

0:10:55.600 --> 0:10:58.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of the mainstream is like, oh, we'll just stop

0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:00.520
<v Speaker 1>thinking about it. But you're giving it attention and density

0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:03.280
<v Speaker 1>still right by thinking. You're saying don't think about it,

0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:05.560
<v Speaker 1>don't think about it, instead of like you were talking

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:07.839
<v Speaker 1>about giving it a new way of thinking. I call

0:11:07.880 --> 0:11:11.800
<v Speaker 1>it air attention intention repetition, because you need to have

0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.440
<v Speaker 1>a new way of thinking to replace it with. And

0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 1>you just spelled that out so beautifully, and I really

0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:19.640
<v Speaker 1>feel like anybody who's listening can see that picture. I

0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:22.560
<v Speaker 1>can see those grooves in the wheel. But what you

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.400
<v Speaker 1>just spoke to is really the importance of if you

0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:28.160
<v Speaker 1>missed last week, go back and listen to the concept

0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:30.760
<v Speaker 1>of paying attention to what you're paying attention to and

0:11:30.840 --> 0:11:34.360
<v Speaker 1>thinking about your thoughts because it all revolves around that

0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:36.640
<v Speaker 1>making the unconscious conscious. And we're going to talk a

0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:38.920
<v Speaker 1>little bit more about that when we get to the

0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:42.439
<v Speaker 1>neuro beliefs side of it next week, But in the meantime,

0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:44.680
<v Speaker 1>first of all, thank you so much for being back here.

0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:46.560
<v Speaker 1>You are just such a wealth of information. And I

0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:49.520
<v Speaker 1>love how you speak to us in you're a neurosurgeon,

0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:51.560
<v Speaker 1>but I love how you also break it down in

0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:53.280
<v Speaker 1>an are you smarter than a fifth grader kind of

0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:56.120
<v Speaker 1>science kind of way. That's how I love it. So

0:11:56.320 --> 0:11:58.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm just so I feel so grateful that you're here.
