I saw that many people are saying Caroline speaks too fast. So click on settings (the gear sign on top right of video). Then choose a slower setting. Helps a lot!!!
Thanks, that helped a lot
When GOD heals your heart your mind and body will follow
She’s a very fast talker with amazing life changing information. I’d like to slow this video down a little to take everything in.
save it to you on your contact list. Make a contact with your name. Then share this video to your name. You may call the video up anytime
My take on this... you have a "messy" side of your brain and thoughts that are causing you to be out of control, depressed, anxious etc..(her helicopter story) and you have in your brain a "wisdom" side that you can use to regulate or take charge of those thoughts with. She said think of 3 things that are causing you issues and 1. Choose one of these issues/thoughts you want to change and focus on it. Recognize the signals. How do these thoughts make you feel. Emotionally, Physically, Mentally. Does it affect your behavior ? In other words focus on it (with wisdom) so you can recognize what needs to change and then Step 2. Visualize you are in charge of your thoughts and feelings, behavior etc... take charge of your "messy" thoughts and CHOOSE to think kind, wise, joyful thoughts to "clean " up your mind. Step 3. "Gather" your thoughts (her picking apples example). Again take charge of what you're thinking and choose the best thoughts just like you would choose the best apples if you were picking them. Step 4. Reflect on what thoughts make you feel healthy emotionally, physically, mentally etc... she said write it down (she said it's better to hand write it and not type it... I guess it helps release toxicity). Then Step 5. Think on the good. Meditate on what is good. On the thoughts that are making you feel healthy (she said it will change your brain patterns and cause you to be healthier and happier). Basically choose your thoughts and let it what you think on change you! Philippians 4:8 " ...whatever things are true.. noble..just...pure... lovely, whatever things are of good report... any virtue..anything praiseworthy ~Meditate on these things..." I hope this helps. Hopefully I got most of it right!!! ❤😊
She did say to do this in 21 day cycles up to 63 days.
Thanks for the notes 🙏 blessings
Wow thank you .
I think i get the concept but to do the same thing every day I dont get that- you will just be reading what you wrote every day won't you?
@@janerowena4023 I think she means write down the thoughts that make you happy for that day. I don't know about you but I have different things that happen daily that could make me feel good or bad. I choose to think on the good things. You can find something good to think about every day (laughing with co workers, how cute your pet is, funny things a little child has done or said, how beautiful the sky looks etc..). Personally, I sing worship and praise songs and think about God's word and His love. Once you put your mind on what is good and what brings joy to you, it will change your thinking patterns. Also after you think the good things she said to read them out loud. Because speaking your good and joyful thoughts can change your whole life. Start doing this and you will alao notice a change in how you feel. Blessings to you!!! I pray for the Lord to help you and give you peace. 😊❤
She’s GENIUS, You must be like a (Heutagogical Neuroscientist) to comprehend and demystify her Unique Teaching!
Wish I could follow her. Talks so fast
That's the power of video and technology to be able to rewatch or slow things down as we listen.
Her brain is faster than her mouth
@@myfantribe8501how???
Dr Caroline, I believe your messages are very profound and awesome. I would really love to understand your messages but honestly find it hard to follow what you are saying as you speak so fast.. May I humbly request you to please slow down a bit in your future messages? I really would love to listen and put into practice the vital truths you have to offer us. Don't know if am the only one who feels this way. Thanks alot and abundant blessings . Love you❤
Change your mindset first.
I agree. I keep stopping the video and processing it slowly. She is a highly skilled and experienced scientist, we are not, and also depressed people think more slowly. She does acknowledge this at the end of the video. I found the summary in the comments to be very helpful. Perseverance is the key ❤
@@louisebrigden9240 I think if you go to the settings, you can change the speed.
It is hard to understand, needs perseverance, just keep listening to her different podcasts especially the 21 day affirmations.
Purchase her books. You can go at your own pace.
😊Really have appreciated Dr. Leaf! Reading the Bible and teachings of Jesus takes on a whole new meaning. Neuroscience is finally catching up. Science and the Bible are not at odds with each other. Life is better when we live as Jesus taught. It is as profound as it is pragmatic. Thank God for honest scientist. Amazing that Darwin could look as closely at nature and not be undone by the complexity of nature and come to the conclusion that we have design, and that design could NOT have been an accident out of some cosmic goo.
Love it, helps us in the “renewing of the mind” as scripture tells us we are to do. Thank you Jesus for the knowledge you have given Dr. Caroline Leaf
Thank for sharing this. This was interesting.
I love Dr Leaf. ❤️ and i love that her last name is leaf 🍃 💕 she is so next level. ❤

Which book is she referring to?
🙂
What is the name of her thus book.
Of course, your mind is spiritual and part of your spirit which operates the body and brain. Our essential mind is spiritual and, of course, survives death.
Please could you help. I hear voices and not sure how best to get rid of them.
Go to the Dr. Love and blessings to you ❣️
The mind may not be located in the brain. Could be a receiver of some kind.
I know its been a while since this message came out?
But I have a question for Dr.Leaf if she even reads them.
I lost my 38 year old daughter September 24, 2021.
Due to complications to delta Covid
. I never in my mind have ever thought of losing a child.
She was my first born and I was very young when I got married and pregnant with my daughter, only 21 years old.
I have another child from my second child marriage a son born in 2001 .
Yes my children are 18 years apart.
I watch my daughter grow into a beautiful woman she was married for 16 years. They didn’t have any children.
My daughter loved the Lord with all her soul, heart , and strength.
For me since the day her husband call me and told me she was in the hospital breathing from a machine.
I felt that wasn’t good I was the only one that would visit her daily for 19 days.
Her husband had covid and wasn’t well enough too see her.
The whole time I was there with her praying for a miracle. I suddenly felt deep in
my spirit God was going to take her.
She wasn’t responding to the machine or anything they gave her In fact, she had a heart week before 19 days were over.
Bottom line is how too deal with all the emotions that are coming my way? Grieving is so painful and it takes all my strength.
How do I deal with this? Yes, there a lot of people telling I will never be the same .
Deal with it and move on in life . She was a pice of my soul I gave brith too.
If you have any advice I would appreciate.
Thank you have enjoyed your books.
🙏,
Marina
Therefore watching her suffer was hard on me but after her heart attack I lost hope I knew the Lord take her.
Oh Marina,
I’m so sorry for your loss. I have one daughter also (only child) and I can’t imagine. I pray you find some comfort in knowing you will see her again and will rejoice for forever. It’s difficult to wait here in the meantime.
Are you in a grief group at a church? My prayers are with you.
Marina, I know there are not adequate words to describe your loss. I know God is faithful and will strengthen and comfort you. I am lifting you up in prayer. I pray for the supernatural peace and comfort of the Holy Spirit to envelope you even now.
Dear Marina. I don't know what it is to lose a child but I am well acquainted with grief as my husband passed away recently after suffering a lot. There are a lot of emotions that come which in the natural seem impossible to deal with but I am finding that using Dr Leaf's teaching and following the Lord's guidance with praise and worship it is making these deep feelings of loss and pain more bearable. I hope this helps a little for you to move forwards. God bless you.
I pray God will bring comfort to your heart Marina. Kindly listen to the Bible (audio) each day and receive strength in Jesus name. Amen
Thank you all of you that have reply I appreciated it all and your prayers. And just feel alone in my pain. And the shock that I will never speak to her again in this world blows my mind away. People except for you to be you again but they don’t understand a mothers loss . I pray and ask God for help where do I go from here ? Its to difficult for me to set through a grief group I get to emotionally.
Anyway , just taking each day as it comes for know. Hugs for east one of you that have reach out.

The skull in front is macabre 😮
I follow her and yet I don’t understand her teachings.
Just read the Bible. Start from Book of Matthew and keep going.
Keep listening over and over. That’s what I do 😊
@@wordhannah528take captive every thought unto the obedience of Christ. Cast down imaginations. Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Very interesting I was thinking the same.
Ag Nee. Listen carefully. It is clear
She talks so fast
Your brain is too slow.
PLEASE SLOW DOWN ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING TROUBLE UNDERSTANDING!!
She is not fast. It is just a complex subject that needs repeatation to sink in.
i find this woman so exhausting and long winded
Please unpack a bit more dear
you talk too fast Dr Leaf slow down so that we can understand it.
Something about her is dark
I'm curious, so please explain why you think that.
Me too.
