We also talk about the importance of seeking mental health support and building a strong community for healing.

  • In this episode, I discuss practical steps for self-brain surgery™, focusing on the importance of documentation in understanding mental health. We explore the SOAP note method for tracking thoughts and concerns, and introduce two key techniques: the thought biopsy to examine negative thinking, and the whole system scan for comprehensive self-assessment through mindfulness.
    I emphasize the need to align subjective feelings with objective reality to foster a proactive mindset. Listeners are encouraged to use accompanying worksheets for reflection and documentation, as consistent practice can lead to meaningful transformation in mental well-being.

  • In this episode, I introduce the first five of the Ten Commandments of self-brain surgery, which guide mental and emotional wellness. I emphasize the importance of rejecting self-destructive behaviors, understanding feelings as chemical events, questioning negative automatic thoughts, recognizing the brain's capacity for healing, and focusing on future possibilities over immediate discomfort. Practical applications are provided to encourage self-reflection and conscious thought alterations. The next episode will explore the remaining five commandments, continuing the journey toward personal fulfillment.

  • Surgical Training is Hard, But It's Crucial to Safe Practice
    Today, a look back at something called a "Surgical Approach," and why knowing multiple approaches is so important.
    This has everything to do with learning and practicing self-brain surgery too! Surgeons who only know one approach get stuck, and sometimes cannot complete an operation safely. Choosing the right approach makes all the difference, and this episode will help you learn the approaches to your own life and self-brain surgery practice that will help you keep moving forward!

  • It's Mind Change Monday!
    Today, a talk about whether we're stuck with our feelings, diagnoses, or past traumas, or not. Am I just a skin sack of neurons? Or I am I fearfully and wonderfully made? What if we actually have a tremendous amount of control over these things? The good news is, we do! How we think changes how we live, even if we've been through TBI, TMT, or any other type of problem. No diagnosis is more powerful than the incredible smashing together of your brain, mind, and spirit. Why? Because you have a Great Physician, my friend.
    Scripture: II Timothy 1:7
