I Don't Want to Have Surgery! (Self-Brain Surgery Saturday)
It's Self-Brain Surgery Saturday!
Today, we talk about the problem of NOT wanting to have surgery. What happens if you believe that someone else is responsible for your happiness, or that circumstances have to be a particular way for you to be okay? We'll go deep into the science and faith elements of learning that if we don't learn self-brain surgery, we can never overcome trauma, drama, tragedy, or any other massive thing. This episode will bring you HOPE!

Preparing Your Mind (Tuesdays with Tata Classic)
It's Tuesdays with Tata!
(This is a classic episode about being ready for whatever life brings. It's important for me today, as I'm dealing with a big work issue. Back with multiple new episodes later this week!)
Today, a great talk about the importance of getting your mind ready for whatever comes along. Does life jump up and knock you out? Or do you have a plan in place for how you're going to use your mind to handle anything that happens? Tata takes us through I Peter and other scriptures to show us how to keep our minds ready!
Key Scripture: I Peter 1:13

Default Mode Monday: Become Less Anxious by Increasing This
An Episode About Anxious Thoughts: It's Default Mode Monday!
Today, some compelling research about the connection between the default mode network (DMN) and the Central Executive Network (CEN). We'll learn how thinking more about God trains your brain to ruminate less about past traumas and possible future troubles, and to connect with the present and others more effectively. This, my friend, is how you can become healthier, feel better, and be happier in your life. Book Mentioned for Memorial Day: No Place to Hide by meLeave a voicemail with your question or comment!

Customer Reviews
Simply Good
I take a note on every episode but the one with Pete Greig was way cool. I hit the back button until I thought I’d wear it out.
Finished Lee’s 1st book in 2 sittings. As a civilian contractor I met several Drs at Landstuhl Regional Hospital who saw the work of those who served in his position.
The 2nd book I had to take in shorter doses. Super good but deeper for my brain. Time to get on #3.
Thank you for the podcast. Just good stuff!
So helpful
I don’t know how to adequately thank Dr. Warren for these podcasts. Though I’ve only been listening a year or so, these daily messages have made a huge difference for me. I find time each day to sit the episode in a quiet, peaceful place and always learn something new and glean insight and clarity. The scriptures are just what I need to hear on the day’s journey. Trauma of any kind is not only difficult to heal and recover from, but it is so misunderstood. What a blessing these podcasts are! Thank you, Dr. Warren.
Yes, Romans 12:2!!
Thank you for showing us that science continues to reinforce the truth as laid out in the Bible 🥳🥳🥳 And for reminding us that our body is not our own, it was given to us to house The Holy Spirit while we fulfill God’s purpose for our life!!! 🙏🏻
