Love Is the Healer – For You and the World – TPS521

With all the dissension the country in the world is experiencing, how does one maintain a state of calm and inner peace? In this episode, I offer some suggestions as well as explaining how brain chemicals affect our inner world and how we can regulate them.

Highlights

• Any time you experience the feeling of love, your brain releases oxytocin, which is known as the love chemical, and it has a healing effect on the body.
• When you feel stress or anything negative, cortisol is released, which has a deleterious effect on the body because it causes inflammation.
• The idea is to minimize cortisol and maximize oxytocin.
• Chronic diseases are affected by cortisol.
• Every time you feel annoyed or angry, you are releasing cortisol.
• Gratitude practices help you develop a oxytocin habit.
• Every time you get angry or upset, that adds inflammation to your system, especially if the feelings are ongoing rather than momentary.
• You have the ability to change your brain chemical releases by changing your emotional habits.
• Everything about your life will get better when you move from the cortisol space to the oxytocin space.
• When you consciously develop an attitude of love and peace, I guarantee that your life will get better.
• If you haven’t dealt with your childhood wounds it is going to affect your life outcomes.
• Because your business and life outcomes are an extension of you, you will do better when you are in a more positive space.
• When dealing with other people, if I’m always looking for our similarities rather than our differences, I am actually missing something.
• Embracing our differences allows for expansion.
• The place to start is for you to learn how to love yourself because when you love yourself, it’s easier for you to love and accept other people.
• I suggest that you work on altering your thought patterns and your emotional habits and accepting who and where you are.
