According to Dr. Caroline Leaf, toxic thoughts—such as stress, worry, fear, anger and unforgiveness—actually cause damage to the brain. Chemicals are released into the brain, causing chaos and damage. Those toxic thoughts can cause a loss of sleep or of the ability to do your job right, physical illness and more.
To keep my mind healthy:
1) I guard my mind and thoughts;
2) I keep myself in an attitude of faith, praise, thanksgiving and truth;
3) I take time from the busyness of life and REST/selfcare.
