There are 2 master commands that the brain is wired with, how good enough you feel you are, and how worthy you feel you are. These commands form the overall algorithm of your brain, creating the neurological wiring that governs your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Not feeling worthy enough means you don’t feel special enough to receive love, this is often wired in early childhood. However, this...

Your brain can go from “this is fine”, to “this is hard”, to “this is too much I want to quit” - really quickly. The key here is to understand that your brain is wired to avoid danger. It does this by constantly predicting negative futures based on the struggles of the present. When we’re just at 40% of our capabilities, our brain will estimate that this isn’t sustainable and make us feel that we’...

Feeling guilt is a normal and healthy response. It’s designed as a moral compass to guide our social behaviours for the sanctity of our circles. However, continued experiences of guilt can often manifest as addictions that the brain then tries to reproduce in unhealthy doses. ❤️ _ I have a background in neuroscience and biochemistry from Queen Mary University, London.

The brain is a remarkable device, it’s formed with layers upon layers of algorithms wired from our years of existence. Many of these algorithms help us, but many of them also hold us back, as much as 70%. The goal is to wire your brain with powerful commands that overwrite the existing wiring of our minds and enable to aim much higher by changing our relationship with fear. This powerful command I...

It can feel like you’re keeping so many tabs open at the same time in your brain. It’s a result of the brain worrying about a countless number of issues that you’re facing at the same time. This leads to the feeling of overwhelm, which in turn can result in things like memory and focusing issues and also what people often refer to as brain fog. It’s time to release these unnecessary weights throug...

Dear beautiful heart,  I want to tell you that sometimes our brain plays tricks on us. We hold onto so much pain from a heartbreak because our brain is trying to keep some type of attachment to that person - in the hope that we’ll find our way back. That’s of course not healthy.  Reframing the pain and understanding that the lessons from the experience was the object of that relationship can help...

Have you struggled with forming good routines? Like a great morning routine, exercise or even reading before bed? It’s really easy to give up on routines, and think they just work for us. Instead it’s important to understand that our brain is wired with patterns, including a pattern of abandoning routines when things get tough. As a result we often stop trying to set routines, because we know it j...

Our brains aren’t built for success - they’re built to keep us alive. And that for our brain means keeping us within our safety zones - which are our known states. So on one hand you want to achieve so many things - but your brain is often trying to stop you - sabotage you - in an attempt to keep you away from something your brain doesn’t already know through experience.  In order to overcome this...

Sometimes it just takes one significant person in your life to tell you a corrective command that your brain holds onto and forms a coping response in the form of a mask.  A correct command starts with “you are…” ie you are too quiet, too shy; too loud etc - and this can go very deep within the person.  This mask then hides your true self - and you become more and more distant from the world, othe...

There’s a voice that’s been deeply programmed into our central nervous system, we called it our intuition. It’s there to guide us and keep us safe. Overtime, because of all the noise around us, we either don’t listen to it, or we stop hearing it. It’s a trainable skill to be able to go deep within and listen to the answers to those meaningful questions. Close your eyes, breathe deeply and connect...

What a beautiful human you are. You do so much for others, always putting yourself last, prioritising the happiness and peace of others. Being kind to others is such an honourable thing, you have such a big heart and you give so much. But what is the price you’re paying? People pleasing is a coping response to the fear of abandonment. So just understand how much of what you do comes from a place o...

How long have you been stuck trying to make that decision? This weight becomes a cognitive block weighing you down and depleting you of energy. The brain is designed to avoid danger, so if you’ve framed this decision as something with risk, your brain will fight you. Instead wire your brain with going with the flow of life, trusting the process and trusting your self. Every decision takes you clos...

Please don’t let yourself go into your familiar shell, hiding away from the world. It’s a downhill spiral. The more you allow your brain to do that, the more it will do it, and make you believe it’s for the best. Instead, when you feel alone the most, that’s exactly when you need others. Find your way. ❤️ _ I have a background in neuroscience and biochemistry from Queen Mary University, London. I...

Perfectionism will keep you stuck. The human brain can develop a coping strategy of continually having to achieve more than it’s actually capable of - in the pursuit of feeling good enough. This stems from our childhood where we had to be something that we’re not. And overtime our brain attributed our self worth to our results - keeping us stuck. ❤️ _ I have a background in neuroscience and bioche...

There are a number of factors that can disturb our sleep. I find that usually the brain is in the beta waves state, concerned with either the day that has gone, or with the day that’s coming. To switch it off, we need it to exist the sympathetic nervous response. This is achieved by slowing down the brain cycles, entering the alpha waves states which can only happen when the brain. Relaxes and fee...

The human breath has the power to go deeper than the mind can go. It has the power to clear thoughts, to slow down our neurological activity, to release stress and negative emotions as well as reset our autonomic nervous system. Repeat this as many times as you need to achieve the desired outcome. ❤️ _ I have a background in neuroscience and biochemistry from Queen Mary University, London. I have...

The human brain is built for survival - therefore the brain will develop a fear of ageing because it associates ageing with the end of life. When this happens the brain sees signs of ageing around it and incorrectly concludes that it is experiencing these changes and the body responds to this by feeling these changes as it ages - focusing on signs that may not be there.  In order to overcome this...

Depending on amount early years wiring pattern - we can often end up being conditioned as the good boy or good girl. This serves us and others well - but it also comes at a price, a shadow - and that is for the brain to feel safe doing the good thing, and not always the right thing. Sometimes walking away from someone or something that isn’t good for us doesn’t feel good, but it’s the right thing...

Growing up, if our brain doesn’t feel safe to be seen or heard, it can wire itself to be quieter than it would want to. As an adult this turns into a habit of constantly remaining in a state of invisibility. It’s time to speak up. ❤️ _ I have a background in neuroscience and biochemistry from Queen Mary University, London. I have spent over 20 years specialising in focus and memory, and training h...

A huge part of our neuro-conditioning is affected by our upbringing, and how we perceive our parents and primary caregivers. Holding onto resentment towards one or both parents can affect our relationships with people closest to us and ourselves. ❤️ _ I have a background in neuroscience and biochemistry from Queen Mary University, London.

The brain is more powerful than we realise. So think about what your brain is creating for you. Most, if not all illnesses and ailments - stem from what’s happening in our brain - which after while can reproduce physically abnormalities within our bodies. And if our thoughts can make us ill, then our brain can also make us better. ❤️ _ I have a background in neuroscience and biochemistry from Quee...

Anger is part of our immune system, it’s there to defend ourselves. And when it’s left to sit inside, it can affect us cognitively, and then physically, sapping us of our energy to keep that rage trapped within. Visualising the release of this anger in a safe and controlled way is a powerful method to release our bodies of unwanted energies. ❤️ _ I have a background in neuroscience and biochemistr...

Our inner voice is based upon the way we spoke and more importantly how we were spoken to up until the age of around 11 years old. This inner chatter of the brain can then over time become stringent, resentful and harsh - constantly monitoring and commenting on our thoughts, feelings, behaviours and results. This becomes our cognitive prison, often keeping us small and holding us back. ❤️ _ I have...

Due to perfectionism, fears of failure or judgement or expectations- our brain can trap itself in a loop of not feeling good enough or deserving enough to be where it is or where its aiming to get to. This neurological cage can then hold you back from moving forward freely, or at least enjoying where you are. ❤️ _ I have a background in neuroscience and biochemistry from Queen Mary University, Lon...

As humans, our boundaries directly linked to our immune system, and holding our boundaries solidly has a huge positive impact on our mental and physical health.  ❤️ _ I have a background in neuroscience and biochemistry from Queen Mary University, London.
