Toxic Thoughts... by Dr. Caroline Leaf

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:
  1. How many "could-have", "would-have", "should-have" statements have you made today?
  2. How many "if onlys" were part of your inner vocabulary today?
  3. How many times have you replayed in your head a conversation or situation that pained you, or one that hasn't even occurred yet?
  4. How many scenarios have you created of the unpredictable future?
  5. How much is speculation taking out of your day?
  6. How passive is your mind?
  7. How honest are you with yourself?
  8. Are you at cross-purposes with yourself - going through the motions, but not really committed to the goal, saying one thing but meaning another?
  9. 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"?
  10. 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.

THE PERFECT YOU: WIRED FOR HEALTHThe fact that you are wired for love is reflected in all the bodily systems. When you don't think and choose well, when you step out of your ThePerfectYou, it affects the whole body. 75 to 98% of all mental and physical illness is a result of the thought life. If you are functioning according to ThePerfectYou, you remain in good health and your body heals a lot faster. You are wired for health. 
Nervous System- Healthy thoughts literally causes the brain to grow, making you more intelligent. Since the brain is connected via the rest of the nervous system to all the rest of the body, total health increases.
Endocrine System- Healthy thoughts positively affect the hormonal balance, which in turn positively affects all the rest of the bodily systems. Even fertility can be affected by the thought life.
Immune System- Thoughts affect the functioning of the defenders of the body- the white blood cells. Healthy thoughts lead to robust white blood cells which can fight off infections and even devour cancer cells.
Intestinal System- The gut has a brain of its own. A ‘gut feeling’ is real. Healthy thoughts enable proper food digestion and therefore leads to good general health.
Integumentary System-This system includes the skin, the largest organ in the body. Healthy thoughts leads to better skin- the first line of defense against for the rest of the body.
Muscular System- When your thought life is healthy you are motivated to exercise. Exercised muscles in turn released substances that increase brain health. This an example of an upward spiral.
Cardiovascular System- Healthy thoughts are involved in proper communication between the heart mini-brain and the skull brain, leading to the promotion of well-being by the heart’s orchestration of the whole body’s electromagnetic rhythm and harmony.  Good thoughts also enhance the vascular system, thus preventing hypertension.
For nearly 30 years Dr. Caroline Leaf has researched the science of thought. She discovered that "ThePerfectYou" is reflected in the unique structuring and functioning of our brains. In other words we are are wired differently according to our unique way of thinking. 
Dr. Leaf has developed the The Gift Profile- a 210-question journey that will help you gain a better understanding of who you really are, ThePerfectYou. ThePerfectYou profile is featured her successful book, ‘The Gift In You’. The book has an accompanying study guide and 4-part DVD series.
