Trust Your Gut: How Your Brain Protects You

Your mind is command central and in most cases, is working for you not against you. In certain situations, you have a heightened sense of awareness for a reason. Cause for pause isn’t just a catchy slogan but your brain’s warning signal.

Ever felt an inexplicable urge to act or react in a certain way? In this episode of 'Encouragementology', Kendell Boysen dives into the marvels of our brain's instinctual behaviors. She explores how our minds are wired to protect us, urging us to pay attention to those gut feelings and bodily signals we often dismiss. Instead of shaming ourselves for overreacting or being overly emotional, Kendell encourages us to listen and appreciate these natural responses.

Your brain is your command center, working tirelessly to keep you safe and balanced. Kendell breaks down how laughter, tears, shock, and joy are all chemical messages from our brain, sent at just the right moments to help us cope. Ever wondered why you feel overwhelmed or overstimulated? Kendell explains it all with her trademark warmth and wisdom. She also challenges societal norms and expectations, promoting free thinking and individuality.

Plus, there's a weekly challenge to help you on your journey of self-discovery. Tune in for an episode that's as enlightening as it is empowering.
