The Power of Rewiring the Brain
The brain's survival state is the default mode for most people, even though it's not necessary for non-life-threatening situations. This survival state is programmed into the brain and manifests as fighting, fleeing, or freezing responses. Rewiring the brain entails becoming aware of this survival state and understanding how it affects thoughts, emotions, and behavior. By challenging and questioning one's reality, it becomes possible to activate the executive state at will and access higher levels of performance, energy, and clarity.
