Summary of Switch On Your Brain: The Key to Peak Happiness, Thinking, and Health

Contents

This book is about discovering and activating the switch that can turn on our brain and help us achieve better health and more happiness in the context of both our minds and bodies. It can also make us more intelligent and prosperous. Our minds thoughts transform our brain and body and the power to switch on our brain is part of our design. The switch is our mind.

We have the capability to define, accomplish and sustain ideal degrees of peace, joy, intelligence and mental health. We can also play an active part in shielding our mind and body against disease. By consciously focusing, we can regulate what we think and how we feel. By engaging in this activity, we can alter our brains programming and chemistry. Science is catching up with religion in this context finally.

The introduction concentrates on the need to switch on our brain with hope. It refers to Hebrews 11:1. The Scripture underlines how faith serves as the substance of things we hope for and the proof of things we do not see. The related science concept accentuates that thoughts are real and physical in nature and inhabit actual space in our mind. Our thoughts alter our brain structure all the time. Hope is a mind activity that alters our brain structure to accomplish a normal and positive state.

Additionally, thoughts alter matters structure. Also, neuroplasticity refers to the brain's property of being adaptable and flexible, modifying every single moment. In harmony with religion, science is also recognizing the brain as something that is renewable instead of something that is strictly programmed in the initial phases of life and does not have the ability to adjust. Outstanding scientists discuss and exhibit the way we can alter our brain with our mind utilizing brain-imaging techniques and behavioral change evidence.

The main Scripture is 2 Timothy 1:7. The spirit that God has given us is of the power of love and a sound mind instead of that of fear. The relevant science concept accentuates that we have been programmed for love with a natural bias for optimism. The scientific debate lies between the brain's actions defining the mind versus the brain performing what the mind says. According to the first idea, our thoughts originate from the brain as if the brain is producing every part of our mental experiences. Those who are of this opinion are known as materialists. This view highlights that our brain is responsible for our thoughts and feelings. However, this perspective is incorrect from religious and scientific points of view.

According to the second perspective, we are thinking beings. When we engage in thinking, we end up making choices. Our choices give birth to genetic expression inside our brain. We create proteins and these proteins shape our thoughts. Thoughts are real and physical in nature and occupy actual space in a mental sense.

According to Eric R. Kandel, our thoughts and imaginations reach our DNA and can turn specific genes on and off, transforming the structure of our brain's neurons. By thinking and imagining, we change our brain structure.

Our choices regarding our attention and focus leave an impact on the way in which the chemicals and proteins and our brains wiring alter and work. Science is providing evidence for how our thoughts and our comprehension considerably affect the way in which our brain functions. Thinking triggers genes, our reactions shape our brain, and thinking transforms our DNA. Therefore, even a small amount of stress has huge side effects on our mental and physical wellbeing.

Therefore, in accord with the correct perspective, the mind has been mapped out to regulate our body, including the brain, and not vice versa. Our brain does not exercise control over us. We exercise control over our brain with the help of our thoughts and selections. We can further control our reactions to every single thing. According to research, DNA goes through actual change in reaction to our thoughts. Stress stage 1 is a normal thing. However, stress stages 2 and 3 are the responses generated by our mind and body to toxic thinking. These stages translate into normal stress taking a wrong turn. We do not have any power over what situations and occurrences life throws our way, but we do have power over our reactions to these situations.

The main Scripture of this chapter is Colossians 3:15 AMP. It pertains to the act of letting the peace originating from Christ govern our hearts to which we were directed as one body. The Scripture also asks us to be grateful and praise the Lord.

The related science concept signifies that choice is a reality and so is free will. We can adopt an outside perspective, monitor our thinking, ask God for guidance, and transform the negative, toxic thought or develop the healthy, positive thought. By doing this, we enable our brain to react with a positive neurochemical rush and structural alterations that will improve our health, intellect and peace. This will further cause us to have harmony of the soul.

We are not a victim of our circumstances. We have a choice and can control our reactions. Free will is not mere illusion. If we consider it to be unreal, it underlines risky inclinations since it strips us of any accountability for our actions. This can also cause us to have an excuse for everything and allow us to do as we please without any consideration of repercussions. Free will affects our thinking, which molds our state of mind. Therefore, we can make a choice to think the way God wishes for us to. The neuroscientific evidence explicates the way in which free will functions.
