Radiant Renewal

 I love a good romantic comedy.  I would find myself escaping into one, any chance things were a bit slow or I had to do a tedious chore.  They were my way of running away from my own life.  I didn't want to think about my life that felt like it was dreary, hard and messy. My thoughts just constantly reaffirmed that life sucked. However, as I learned about the brain, I learned my life wasn't quite as bad as my thoughts led me to believe.  My brain was stuck in survival mode. The good news is we can override that survival mode and hack our brains for our happiness.  We can learn to look at life from a greater perspective and with a lens of faith.  We can see greater possibilities, even in our struggles, with some easy, quick strategies. Strategies that you can use to help your children develop a  faith mindset too.

Have you heard the phrase monkey brain.  It means you have a million thoughts running uncontrolled through your mind.  That was me for many years and one of the reasons many of my clients work with me.  If you were to ask them what the most valuable tools were that they learned, they would answer learning to capture thoughts and then learning to refute, reframe or trade them.  It is always surprising to see how many lies we are telling ourselves daily and how many lies the enemy is filling our mind with.  Refuting those lies with the truth has brought so much clarity to my clients about their identity and their potential that they feel like their lives are transformed just by that strategy alone.

Our brain takes in 11 million bits of input every second but our conscious mind can only handle about 40 to 60 bits of information every second.  How does our brain decide what information to bring to your conscious mind?   It goes to what it thinks you want to focus on.  How does it know what you want to focus on?  What you surround yourself with, what you watch on t.v., what you read and what you pause on when scrolling through social media.  These all give clues to your mind as to what you want more of and so your brain searches to bring more of that into your life.  In this course, we will share some ideas you can easily do within minutes to create an environment in your home,  that cultivates growth, dreaming and faith
