Dave mention what he had been watching. You may have also heard
her.
QUOTE:-
Toxic Thoughts
75% to 95% of the illnesses that plague us today are a direct
result of our thought life. What we think about affects us
physically and emotionally. It's an epidemic of toxic emotions.
The average person has over 30,000 thoughts a day. Through an
uncontrolled thought life, we create the conditions for illness;
we make ourselves sick! Research shows that fear, all on its
own, triggers more than 1,400 known physical and chemical
responses and activates more than 30 different hormones. There
are INTELLECTUAL and MEDICAL reasons to FORGIVE! Toxic waste
generated by toxic thoughts causes the following illnesses:
diabetes, cancer, asthma, skin problems and allergies to name
just a few. Consciously control your thought life and start to
detox your brain!
Medical research increasingly points to the fact that thinking
and consciously controlling your thought life is one of the best
ways, if not the best way of detoxing your brain. It allows you
to get rid of those toxic thoughts and emotions that can consume
and control your mind.
Change in your thinking is essential to detox the brain.
Consciously controlling your thought life means not letting
thoughts rampage through your mind. It means learning to engage
interactively with every single thought that you have, and to
analyze it before you decide either to accept or reject it.
How do you go about doing that? By "looking" at your mental
processes. That may sound like a strange, if not impossible
thing to do. After all, it's not as if you can just crack open
your skull like an egg and have a look at what is going on
inside your brain.
It is possible, however, to look at your mental processes. In
fact, it is not just possible, it is essential.
For example consider the following:
How many "could-have", "would-have", "should-have" statements
have you made today?
How many "if onlys" were part of your inner vocabulary today?
How many times have you replayed in your head a conversation or
situation that pained you, or one that hasn't even occurred yet?
How many scenarios have you created of the unpredictable future?
How much is speculation taking out of your day?
How passive is your mind?
How honest are you with yourself?
Are you at cross-purposes with yourself - going through the
motions, but not really committed to the goal, saying one thing
but meaning another?
How distorted is your thinking? Are you forming a personal
identity around for example, a disease? Do you speak about "my
arthritis", "my multiple sclerosis", "my heart problem"?
Do you ever make comments like "nothing ever goes right for me";
"everything I touch fails"; "I always mess up"?
If you answered yes even to just one of these, your thought life
needs detoxing right now.

I read through this very quickly earlier this afternoon but
'saved' it so I could come back to it and give it some thought.
And having thought it through I agree with what she says. For
Romans 12:2 tells us:
"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed
by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and
approve what God’s will is – his good, pleasing and perfect
will."
And the pattern of the world today is to hold grudges and moan
and grumble about all manner of things and to fear illness and
there have never been so many people with allergies.
And in Proverbs 17:22 we are told:
"A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries
up the bones." And you see so many people these days with
'crushed spirits'.
Whilst Jesus also tell us not to worry about anything and Paul
tells us not to be anxious. This doctor has a point which is
based on scripture and could change lives for those who take it
on board.

Amen Pat...it is confirmed by the Word, and the Word confirms
it! We would be a lot healthier if we can stay there...I would
be anyway. :)

Good one Helen; don't write it off as methodology; Paul uses
much scripture to prove the same end result.

Don't go to sleep in a provoked state - each day has its
sufficient things to deal with - tomorrow's problems are for
another day
