Trusting Your Gut: The Science Behind Sound Decisions

So often women are taught: oh, don't be judgmental, be nice, be kind, be sweet, be polite. So this idea that we shouldn't be judgmental at all, especially where discernment is involved so often- I want to throw this out there to you and I'd love for you to answer this question: how many times did you not listen to that judgement, that voice inside your head?
Ever wondered if you should always trust your gut instincts? In this episode of The Brain Warrior's Way Podcast, Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen dive into the fascinating science behind judgement and decision-making. They challenge the common belief that judgement is something to be avoided, arguing instead that it's essential for making wise choices in both social and safety contexts. The hosts break down the brain functions involved in judgement and how societal cues can shape our perceptions.
You'll also learn practical tips for training your brain to make better decisions, even under stress. One of the standout points in this episode is the distinction between positive thinking and accurate thinking. While positive thinking can sometimes lead to unrealistic expectations, accurate thinking involves assessing facts and making decisions based on reality. Dr. Daniel and Tana Amen also explore how stress and anxiety impact our judgement, offering actionable advice for reducing stress and improving decision-making skills.
If you're looking to understand the mechanics of good judgement and how to apply it in your daily life, this episode is a must-listen.
