Synopsis

According to researchers, the vast majority—a whopping 75–98 percent—of the illnesses that plague us today are a direct result of our thought life. What we think about truly affects us both physically and emotionally. In fact, fear alone triggers more than 1,400 known physical and chemical responses in our bodies, activating more than thirty different hormones! Today our culture is undergoing an epidemic of toxic thoughts that, left unchecked, create ideal conditions for illnesses.

Now she helps listeners live out their happier, healthier, more enjoyable lives every day with this devotional companion to her bestselling book. Listeners will find here encouragement and strategies to reap the benefits of a detoxed thought life—every day!
