Dr. Leaf breaks down her mind–brain–body framework in a way that finally makes sense, using a simple nature picture: your thoughts grow like trees, and what you practice strengthens over time. You'll learn why multitasking quietly fuels hurry sickness, how small daily “micro-actions” can shift real patterns, and how to start responding instead of reacting. This one combines science, sanity, and relief in one conversation, with tangible tools you can try today.

  This is your weekly review and integration day, inspired by Dr. Caroline Leaf's work on clearing "your mental mess." In this episode, we revisit the arc of the week—Release, Rest, Ground, Protect, Nurture, Balance—and then we integrate it into one simple, repeatable sequence you can use anytime you need an emotional reset. In this meditation you'll: Review what shifted for you this week Practice a full integration reset (short + repeatable) Choose one "embodied" habit to carry into next week Leave feeling calm, clear, and grounded in your next step Best time to listen: Sunday reset, Monday morning intention-setting, or anytime you want to come back to your baseline. This is day 7 of a 7-day meditation series, "7-Day Neuro Reset to Calm Your Nervous System,"  episodes 3444-3450. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY: Welcome to a brand-new 7-day series on the Daily Meditation Podcast: Neuro Reset—created for that very real moment when the New Year is still here… but your nervous system is already asking for a gentle reboot. Because Week 3 can be a turning point. The excitement of fresh starts fades, your routines get a little wobbly, and your mind starts opening extra tabs: What if I'm behind? What if I can't keep this up? What if I need to start over? If you've felt that, you're not doing anything wrong. It's simply your brain and body recalibrating. This week is designed to help you reset from the inside out—with short, practical meditations that support emotional balance, stress relief, clearer focus, better sleep, and a steadier mood. We'll work with simple tools that calm the nervous system and help you come back to yourself—again and again—without pressure. Each day has an arc and a focus, and today we begin with the arc of Release—releasing mental clutter, tension, and the "I should be doing more" energy… so you can feel lighter, clearer, and more supported moving forward. So settle in. You don't have to force calm. You're simply practicing a reset—one breath at a time. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - "The 7-Day Neurocycle Reset Challenge" Every day: 10 minutes (2 minutes breath + 6 minutes guided Neurocycle step + 2 minutes journaling). THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY  Day 1:  Refresh Visualization Day 2:  Affirmation: "Clarity and calm begin with each new step." Day 3:  Coherent Breathing: Inhale ~5 seconds, exhale ~5 seconds (no holds), for 3–5 minutes. Why: A steady rhythm is one of the simplest ways to "reset the system." Day 4:  Gyan Mudra for clarity Day 5:  Fourth Chakra for compassion Day 6:  Neuro Reset Flow meditation, combining the week's techniques Day 7:  Weekly review meditation and closure Welcome to this special series: Refresh — a gentle, powerful reset for the start of a brand new year. If you've been craving that clean-slate feeling—not just on your calendar, but inside your mind and in the way you live—this is for you. Because a new year isn't only a date. It's an invitation. To clear what's been cluttering your inner space… to come back to what matters… and to choose how you want to feel as you move forward. Over the next seven episodes, we're going to refresh seven key areas of your life—not with pressure, perfection, or a long list of goals… but with inner clarity. Think of this series like opening the windows of your life and letting fresh air move through every room. Each day, we'll focus on one area—simple, practical, and deeply supportive. You'll be guided through: a short, grounding insight to create perspective a few reflective prompts to clarify what's true for you right now and a calming meditation to help you integrate the shift—so this becomes something you feel, not just something you think about This isn't about fixing yourself. You're not behind. You don't need to become someone else to have a meaningful year. This is about coming home to yourself—and gently updating the way you live, so your days match the person you're becoming. So wherever you are—making coffee, sitting in your car, walking outside, or curled up in a quiet corner—take a breath and let this be your beginning. Welcome to your refresh.

In this meditation you'll: Practice heart-centered attention to calm the mind Replace inner pressure with inner support Create space for clarity, compassion, and your next step Leave feeling soothed, grounded, and emotionally reset Best time to listen: after a hard day, after conflict, when you feel tender, or anytime you need comfort without losing momentum.

Welcome to Day 3 of your 7-Day Neurocycle Reset—today's arc is GROUND. Yesterday we practiced Rest. Today, we stabilize. In this episode, you'll practice coherent breathing—inhale for ~5 seconds, exhale for ~5 seconds (no holds)—for 3–5 minutes to help reset your emotional state and calm your nervous system.

Today we use a simple, steady rhythm to interrupt that mess, anchor in the present moment, and create the clarity you need for your next step. In this meditation you'll: Ground your attention in the body Use 5–5 breathing to reset stress and steady your mind Practice meeting thoughts without getting pulled into them Leave with a calm, grounded baseline you can return to anytime Best time to listen: morning start, midday overwhelm, pre-meeting nerves, or whenever your mind feels scattered.

You'll be guided through: a short, grounding insight to create perspective a few reflective prompts to clarify what's true for you right now and a calming meditation to help you integrate the shift—so this becomes something you feel, not just something you think about This isn't about fixing yourself. You're not behind. You don't need to become someone else to have a meaningful year. This is about coming home to yourself—and gently updating the way you live, so your days match the person you're becoming. So wherever you are—making coffee, sitting in your car, walking outside, or curled up in a quiet corner—take a breath and let this be your beginning. Welcome to your refresh. Let's start the year with clarity… and create a life that feels clean, aligned, and truly yours. SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

Do you find yourself constantly replaying past events—or feeling like your mind is in a state of chaos?  In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Caroline Leaf, PhD to explore why anxiety, overwhelm, and intrusive thought patterns aren't signs that something is broken—but signals of how the mind is responding to stress, experiences, and unresolved patterns. We break down what thoughts actually are, how experiences are wired into “thought networks,” and why the mind controls the brain—not the other way around. Dr. Leaf also explains how it's possible to redesign a memory—not by erasing the past, but by changing how it's wired and how it shows up in the present.Suggested Resources:Cleaning Up the Mental Mess PodcastDr. Caroline Leaf | WebsiteDr. Caroline Leaf | FacebookCaroline Leaf | TwitterDr. Caroline Leaf | InstagramDr. Caroline Leaf | YouTubeSwitch on Your BrainHelp in a HurrySend me a text!This episode is proudly sponsored by: Weddell WaterWe focus on the water we drink, but the water you shower with matters too—your skin absorbs more than you think, which is why I use the Weddell Water Duo Shower Filter, the only NSF-certified option that targets chlorine, PFAS, and hard-water buildup.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1870Dr. Caroline Leaf was a young scientist in the 1980s when she decided to swim directly against everything the medical establishment believed about the brain. Back then, if you were in a coma for more than eight hours, doctors considered the brain damage irreversible. You were written off. Done. But she met a 16-year-old girl who'd lost an entire year of school, functioning at a second-grade level, labeled a "vegetable" by her doctors. Every expert said attempting to get her back to graduate with her peers was pointless, not even worth trying. Eight months later, that girl caught up to 12th grade, finished school with her class, earned a university degree, and became exceptional at math when she'd been average before the accident. This wasn't compensation or coping strategies. This was her brain actually rebuilding itself through systematic, intentional mind management.Here's what matters for your life: you don't go even three seconds without using your mind, which means every moment you're either directing it or letting it run wild. Dr. Leaf spent decades working everywhere from apartheid-torn South Africa to Rwanda war zones to CEO boardrooms, and what she discovered is that you can't control what happens to you, but you can absolutely learn to manage your mind. Real greatness isn't about millions in the bank or fame. It's about mental peace, actual growth, being satisfied with who you're becoming. Your brain isn't fixed. Your limitations aren't permanent. And the person you think you are right now? That's just the beginning of who you could become if you learn to direct your own neuroplasticity instead of letting life do it randomly.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dr. Caroline Leaf reveals that depression and anxiety aren't diseases; they're messengers trying to tell you something important. For nearly four decades, she's proven through rigorous neuroscience research that your mind controls your brain, not the other way around, and that you have far more power over your mental health than you've been told. She breaks down why the chemical imbalance theory is a myth, how traumatic experiences literally change the structure of your brain, and most importantly, how you can reverse that damage through deliberate mind management. You'll learn the exact five-step neurocycle process she's used with everyone from traumatic brain injury survivors to Navy SEALs to help them reclaim control of their thoughts and emotions. This isn't about positive thinking or pretending everything's fine, it's about embracing your pain, processing it systematically, and reconceptualizing your past so it stops controlling your future.Dr. Leaf's books:Switch on Your BrainThink & Eat Yourself SmartThe Perfect YouThink Learn SucceedSwitch on Your Brain Every Day101 Ways to Be Less StressedCleaning Up Your Mental MessHow to Help Your Child Clean Up Their Mental MessIn this episode you will:Break through the myth that you're stuck with a broken brain by learning how to direct your own neuroplasticity in just 63 daysUnderstand the exact five step neuro cycle process that reduces anxiety and depression by 81% through deliberate mind managementDiscover why your depression and anxiety are actually helpful warning signals, not brain diseases that need to be medicated awayTransform traumatic memories from toxic patterns that control you into wisdom that serves your growth and helps othersMaster the daily practice of brain building that creates mental resilience and protects you from falling back into dark patternsFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1870For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Marc BrackettDr. Joe DispenzaDr. Daniel Amen Get more from Lewis!

Thinking about starting therapy? Or just beginning your healing journey?Before you dive in, there's something most people are never told. In the first few weeks of therapy, emotions can intensify, old memories can resurface, and you may feel worse instead of better. This is known as the activation dip — and it's not a failure. It's a sign that your mind is beginning real change. In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf, clinical neuroscientist and mental health expert, explains the science behind why therapy can feel harder at first, what's happening in your brain during emotional healing, and how to move through this phase without quitting too soon. You'll learn how to recognize the difference between productive discomfort and burnout, how to stay regulated during emotional activation, and how to set yourself up for lasting transformation from day one.

Why do teams break down — and what makes them thrive? In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf and bestselling author Jon Gordon unpack the real reasons teams fail and the 7 science-backed commitments that create trust, clarity, and high performance. You'll learn the neuroscience behind positivity, how mission and vision rewire the brain for follow-through, and why emotional intelligence is the foundation of any successful culture. Whether you're a leader, manager, educator, or team member, these insights will help you transform how your team communicates and works together. What you will learn: • Why teams fail (and how to fix it)• The 7 commitments of a thriving team• How positivity changes group dynamics• The science of goals, trust, and shared vision• How to stay aligned and resilient under pressure

What if your brain isn't in charge? What if your mind, your thoughts, your awareness, your choices—is actually directing your brain, not the other way around? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Caroline Leaf, a communication pathologist, audiologist, and neuroscientist who spent 40 years proving what the medical establishment refused to believe: your mind can rewire your brain. She explains why habits actually take 63 days to form (not 21), why rehearsing trauma keeps you trapped in it, and how a 60-second pause can interrupt panic attacks, people-pleasing spirals, and chronic pain patterns before they take over. Start directing your own neuroplasticity. Healing is just around the corner.

The Hidden Power Inside You Is Far Greater Than the Fear In Front of You In this mashup episode, I am bringing you two of the greatest minds on the planet when it comes to transforming your inner world and tapping into the genius that already lives inside you. If you have ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, afraid, or unsure of your next move, this conversation is going to shift something deep within you. John Assaraf and Dr. Caroline Leaf break down the science, the psychology, and the spiritual truth behind why fear takes over our lives and how to reclaim the control that is already yours. This episode is not just information. It is a roadmap to unlocking the next version of you. John Assaraf gives you the exact strategies the most successful performers in the world use to break free from fear and activate the Einstein part of the brain instead of living controlled by the Frankenstein part. He explains why your nervous system reacts the way it does, how to stop the fear response in real time, and how to create inner patterns that align with success instead of sabotage. His step by step inner sizes will help you calm the circuits, shift your focus, and turn fear into fuel so you can take immediate action toward your goals. Then Dr. Caroline Leaf takes you even deeper into the mechanics of the mind. She reveals how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are actually signals from the nonconscious mind trying to guide you toward healing and growth. She walks you through her powerful five step Neurocycle process that helps you rewire old patterns, break free from anxiety, and build new mental habits that create clarity, peace, and confidence. Whether you are dealing with stress, trauma, overwhelm, or a lack of direction, her framework gives you the tools to rebuild your mind from the inside out. This episode is more than just teaching. It is an activation. You will hear how to slow your thoughts, regulate your emotions, and shift your identity into the person you are meant to become. If you apply what you learn today, you will not only conquer fear, you will unlock a level of genius, intuition, and personal power that has been sitting inside you waiting to be released. You were built for greatness. You were designed for expansion. And this episode shows you exactly how to step into it. If you are ready to take back control of your mind, strengthen your identity, and create the life you know you are capable of, this conversation is your turning point. Lean in. Take notes. Apply what you learn. Your genius is waiting. Key Takeaways How to deactivate the fear response and regain control of your emotional state Why your brain defaults to survival patterns and how to train it for success The two brain circuits controlling your reactions and how to switch between them Dr. Leaf's five step Neurocycle and how it rewires unproductive thought patterns Why awareness creates freedom and how to use it to build new habits How visualization and repetition reshape the subconscious mind Why your beliefs and identity determine your outcomes Tools to reduce anxiety, create mental clarity, and activate peak performance ⁠

Dr. Caroline Leaf explains her philosophy on the distinction between the mind and the brain, and how to utilize your mind to combat stress, anxiety, and burnout. She also weighs in on AI and its potential to harm the mind and brain.

You'll hear insights from four of the top voices in brain science: Dr. Daniel Amen on identifying your unique brain type, Jim Kwik on training your mind with simple daily habits, Dr. Drew Ramsey on the foods that fuel (or drain) your focus, and Dr. Caroline Leaf on rewiring negative thoughts and emotional patterns.

Dr. Lisa Miller, Columbia professor and leading researcher on spirituality and mental health, shares groundbreaking neuroscience that proves we're all born with an "awakened brain", but two-thirds of us never activate it. She unpacks why depression is often misdiagnosed spiritual hunger, not medical illness, and reveals the three neural circuits that light up when we connect to something greater than ourselves. Through deeply personal stories, including her five-year struggle with infertility that ended the moment she opened her heart to adoption, Lisa shows how synchronicities aren't coincidence, they're guidance. You'll walk away knowing that your pain isn't against you, it's the doorway to discovering who you're meant to become.Dr. Miller's books:The Awakened BrainThe Spiritual ChildIn this episode you will:Discover why two-thirds of depression is actually developmental spiritual hunger, not a medical condition requiring only medicationTransform your relationship with pain by understanding the three circuits of an awakened brain: feeling loved and held, receiving divine guidance, and experiencing onenessPractice the "Hosting Council" exercise to connect with your spiritual mentors and receive wisdom from your higher self and higher powerBreak free from the prison of ego by shifting from "What do I want and how do I get it?" to "What is life showing me now?"Recognize synchronicities as divine guidance by paying attention to the high-pixel hits that carry information yet to unfold in your futureFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1841For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Tara Swart – greatness.lnk.to/1833SCPrice Pritchett  – greatness.lnk.to/1821SC  Dr. Caroline Leaf – greatness.lnk.to/1785SC Get more from Lewis!

In today's marketplace, it seems the best teachers, trainers, and guides must also become performers. We call it “content creators” and if you're not devoting half or more of your time on camera or writing and posting memes, you just won't get any traction. And I find many of the best teachers, trainers, and guides are not naturally the performing type, and they don't want to be. And if they try, it might be embarrassing. So the gap grows between them and the performers who are grabbing the spotlight, getting the attention, and quite possibly selling an inferior offering. What do we do? My guest today is an expert in the world of personal branding. Rory Vaden. I've known Rory for about a decade and watched him become one of the greatest influencers to the world's greatest influencers. His expertise is in studying the psychology of influence – which he defines as the ability to move ourselves, and others, to take action. He's become a personal advisor to many of the world's biggest personal development influencers including: Lewis Howes, Ed Mylett, Amy Porterfield, Trent Shelton, Jasmine Star, Eric Thomas, Dr. Caroline Leaf, John Maxwell and more. He is a very in demand speaker and best selling author. His business, Brand Builders Group, has grown to be a powerhouse for personal branding. But you are about to hear a very sobering conversation. You will hear Rory admit that much of the marketing game today disgusts him. And, if we have something of value, we don't need to become something we are not or do things we don't agree with, but we do need to care enough about helping people that we are willing to play the game to a degree. Even if it's not totally comfortable for us. His new book is titled, Wealthy And Well Known: Build Your Personal Brand and Turn Your Reputation Into Revenue. We talk through some of my frustrations, talk about options and solutions, and in the last quarter of the show talk about the necessity to be primarily known for…one thing. And how he believes you are most powerfully positioned to serve the person you once were.

The world's most respected neuroscientist just admitted something that shocked everyone: prayer saved his mental health.

But here's what makes this conversation revolutionary: he doesn't stop at spirituality. Huberman reveals the exact protocols he uses to hack his nervous system, from morning cortisol optimization to evening wind-down routines that guarantee better sleep.

Environmental neuroscientist Marc Berman drops a revelation that could transform how you think about your daily struggles with focus, stress, and mental clarity: your brain has two completely different attention systems, and modern life is systematically destroying one of them. While we scroll through endless feeds believing we're taking "mental breaks," we're actually depleting the very cognitive resource we need most to achieve our goals, control our impulses, and become our best selves. Berman's groundbreaking research reveals that something as simple as a 20-minute walk in nature can be as effective as ADHD medication for focus, while looking at curved edges in natural environments literally makes people think more about spirituality. You'll discover why your environment isn't just influencing your mood—it's rewiring your brain, shaping your behavior, and determining whether you become the person you're capable of being.Marc's book Nature and the Mind: The Science of How Nature Improves Cognitive, Physical, and Social Well-BeingIn this episode you will:Discover the two attention systems in your brain and why one is being hijacked by modern technology, leaving you mentally fatigued and unable to focus on what matters mostTransform your understanding of "rest" by learning why scrolling social media when tired actually drains you further, while nature exposure restores your cognitive batteryBreak through mental fog and decision fatigue using Berman's five daily strategies that environmental neuroscientists use to optimize their brains for peak performanceUncover shocking research showing that 11 trees per city block provides health benefits equivalent to a $20,000 income increase, and why hospital patients with nature views heal a full day fasterHarness the power of "softly fascinating" environments that capture your involuntary attention while allowing your directed attention to recover, making you sharper and more resilientFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1824For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Kevin Tracey – greatness.lnk.to/1812SCDr. Andrew Huberman  – greatness.lnk.to/1219SCDr. Caroline Leaf – greatness.lnk.to/1785SC Get more from Lewis!

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!The most dangerous trend in mental health today isn't anxiety itself—it's how we've been taught to think about it. Dr. Caroline Leaf, a leading neuroscientist and author of "Help in a Hurry," reveals why 100% of people experience anxiety and how the current medical model of labeling and diagnosing mental health "disorders" creates more harm than healing. Through groundbreaking research spanning 40 years, she shares her most vulnerable discovery: we are 99% mind and 1% brain, making every thought we think a physical force that either builds or destroys our cellular health. The conversation takes a powerful turn when she explains her 63-day healing protocol that has helped thousands rewire toxic thought patterns, proving that what we've been told about mental health has been fundamentally backwards—and how anyone struggling with overwhelm, anxiety, or stress today holds the power to transform their mind and heal their body.Pre order Dr. Leaf's new book ​​Help in a Hurry: Simple Tips for Finding Peace When You're Overwhelmed, Anxious, or StressedDr. Leaf's book Switch on Your Brain: The Key to Peak Happiness, Thinking, and HealthDr. Leaf's book Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess: 5 Simple, Scientifically Proven Steps to Reduce Anxiety, Stress, and Toxic ThinkingDr. Leaf on InstagramThe Doctor Leaf Show on YouTubeIn this episode you will learn:Why anxiety is your brain's warning system, not a disease, and how to read its signals correctlyThe shocking truth about self-diagnosis culture and why labeling yourself creates the exact problems you're trying to solveHow your thoughts become physical networks in your brain and body within secondsWhy 35-98% of all physical illnesses originate from toxic thinking patternsThe exact 63-day process neuroscientists use to rewire trauma and heal emotional woundsFor more information go to https://www.lewishowes.com/1785For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Rangan Chatterjee  – greatness.lnk.to/1716SCDr. Joe Dispenza – greatness.lnk.to/1702SCTJ Power – greatness.lnk.to/1741SC Get more from Lewis!
