111. Negative Thinking: Does It Affect Quality of Life? Part 1

What a treat to have Dr. Tabatha Barber, author of the best-selling book Fast To Faith, on the podcast.

She explained that our bodies function like a chemistry experiment. When we think in a certain way, we produce chemicals that can have positive or negative effects.

I don't know about you, but I do find it shocking that the thoughts I think can create chemical messengers in my body that can heal me or harm me.

You have so much more power than you realize!

We also discussed a topic near and dear to my heart, JOY.

Where's your joy? If we put everyone else first, that will steal your happiness.

Dr. T. explained that we get caught up in the lie that taking care of ourselves is selfish. She said that she felt God tell her that caring for herself wasn't selfish but SELF PRESERVATION.

Dr. Tabatha shared simple tips that can help you to change your mindset and increase your daily joy.

Please enjoy part one of this conversation and join us next week when we talk about 20-minute or less dinners, fasting, and her lifelong battle with depression.

Air Dr.

I've been using the Air Doctor air purifier for almost a year and absolutely love it! I first heard about it from Dr. Mark Hyman, and even though it was a bit of a splurge compared to what I usually spend, I'm so glad I invested. Every time I change the filter and see all the gunk it collects, I smile, knowing it's doing a great job keeping my air clean!

And I'm so happy that all that gunk isn't going into my body ;)
