Description

Title: Season 5 Episode 2 – Lessons from Olive Pressing- When Our Fruit is Pressed for Something Greater. 

Summary:
Welcome to Season 5 of the Rewire Your Brain Podcast. I'm your host, Liz Bagwell. This episode is titled: Lessons from Olive Pressing- When Our Fruit is Pressed for Something Greater. 

I share with you a bit about the neuroscience of neuroplasticity, how God gave us way more power over our thoughts than we could ever imagine and the super easy prompts that help us focus in on Jesus and the positive things He is doing in our lives.

Each prompt draws you closer to Jesus and helps you to see Him and all the miracles He has placed throughout your day more clearly. 

Today's scripture is Leviticus 24:1-2 and we are discussing times in our lives when pruning and refining turns into a pressing season.

 

 


 

🎙 What You'll Hear

  • How staying consistent is essential for rewiring your brain: "neurons that fire together wire together."

  • The inverse truth: more negative thoughts = more negative thoughts and stronger negative neural pathways, and why that's good news—because God created you with the ability to quickly add more positive thoughts in your brain that will completely change your life.

  • The difference in what fruit provides versus what oil provides both from a biblical and a nutrient standpoint.
