Mental Illness vs. Spiritual Warfare
In this episode of Friday Self Brain Surgery, I tackle a question I’m often asked: is what’s happening in your mind mental illness, trauma and stress, spiritual warfare, or can they all be true at once?
Drawing from my experience as a neurosurgeon and from my own PTSD and grief after losing my son Mitch, I explain how neuroplasticity gives you real agency to change your brain, and how scripture frames the battle for your mind.
I share practical tools like CPR for your brain and Dr. Jeffrey Schwartz’s four steps (relabel, reframe, refocus, revalue) to help you take every thought captive, replace lies with truth, and begin rewiring your patterns starting today.
