Mind Vs Brain: The Fundamental Difference
- The mind and brain are distinct: the mind animates, directs, and stores data while the brain is the organ that responds and houses memories.
- Understanding this distinction shifts hope and strategy for lasting mental-health change.
All Experiences Rewire You
- Every experience—positive or negative—creates mind-brain-body changes and forms networks of memory and proteins throughout you.
- You can intentionally direct those changes through how you process experiences in your mind.
Anxiety Is A Signal, Not A Disease
- Anxiety is a signal about unresolved patterns and experiences, not a standalone disease.
- Those signals arise from layered mind processes—non-conscious, subconscious, and conscious—that format memories into body-wide networks.
