Classic: Your Mind is not Your Brain (S13E55)
About this episode
[We are on a short break while Dr. Warren prepares new episodes for Action April 2026! While we're waiting, we're bringing back four of the most popular episodes from last year]
In this episode, we discuss the crucial distinction between the mind and the brain, essential for the process of self-brain surgery.
I introduce the fourth commandment of self-brain surgery, which emphasizes that our mind controls our brain, and we explore how our thoughts shape our cognitive architecture. We contrast "brain-out" and "mind-down" worldviews, showing the power of intentionality and personal responsibility.
You'll get practical steps for engaging in self-brain surgery, and exercises for reflection to challenge limiting beliefs. This conversation sets the stage for further exploration of personal transformation in future episodes.
