Brief Science Lesson: Brain & Mind
The brain and the mind are different yet work together. Scientists seem to draw varied conclusions on how much one affects the other. The best way I can explain it is that the brain is the tangible, physical, touchable part (biological) and the mind is intangible energy where ideas, thoughts, reasoning questioning processes take place (psychological). It is believed by some scientists that your mindset can be retrained to receive and process better messages. You have the power to control the types of questions that consciously or unconsciously flow through it each day.

I’ve compiled a list of disempowering and empowering questions. After reading them choose one area in your life you need to stop asking disempowering questions (finances, relationships, spiritual, physical, etc.) and create 1 empowering question then share it in the comments. Put it in your planner or on a 3 X 5 card to read at least 1-3 times a day. Or just take some time to sit and craft your own.
