Season 5 Day 1: Yielding Peaceful Fruit

Title: Season 5 Episode 1 – "Yielding Peaceful Fruit" (Rewire Your Brain Podcast)

Summary:

Welcome to Season 5 of the Rewire Your Brain Podcast. I'm your host, Liz Bagwell. In this Season 5 premier episode titled "Yielding Peaceful Fruit," I share with you a bit about the neuroscience of neuroplasticity, how God gave us way more power over our thoughts than we could ever imagine and the super easy prompts that help us focus in on Jesus and the positive things He is doing in our lives.

Season 5 has two new updates to the format- 1) You no longer need to pause and unpause between prompts (this helps minimize an influx of beta brain waves during prayer time) and 2)I have updated the affirmations section to specifically target rewiring over negative neural pathways.

Each prompt draws you closer to Jesus and helps you to see Him and all the miracles He has placed throughout your day more clearly.

Today's scripture is Hebrews 12:11 and we are talking about areas of our life that God is pruning and areas that have yielded peaceful fruit.

🎙 What You'll Hear How staying consistent is essential for rewiring your brain: "neurons that fire together wire together."

The inverse truth: more negative thoughts = more negative thoughts and stronger negative neural pathways, and why that's good news—because God created you with the ability to quickly add more positive thoughts in your brain that will completely change your life.

The biblical foundation: Hebrews 12:11 "For the moment, all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it."

Why the sight of a device (even inactive) can keep you in a beta-state of fight/flight—and how we're adapting our format accordingly.

Season 5 format explained: silent prayer, micro- & macro-gratitude, groan-to-gratitude statements, journalling prompt, meditation, affirmations, action and reflection.

How to use your notebook, pen, PDF worksheets and the new format for stronger positive neural pathways.
