Housebound by COVID-19, we are all a little stir crazy. There is relief in the 21 Day Mind Detox outlined by Dr. Caroline Leaf in her book “Switch on Your Brain.” 

Dr Caroline Leaf says: “Your mind is the most powerful thing in the universe after God," she says. 

We all need a “check up from the neck up to get rid of our stinking thinking!”

Dr Caroline Leaf says: “75-98 percent of mental, physical and behavioral illness comes from one’s thought life.”
That means only 2 to 25 percent of mental and physical illness come from the environment and genes!
That means there are so many things that you can change with the Holy Spirit.

How can you reboot your mind? Displace your toxic thoughts with healing thoughts! It’s like pouring clear water into a glass with dirty water.

THE 21 DAY MIND DETOX is breaking down toxic thoughts and building in healthy replacement memories. Take 5-15 minutes per day to walk through these 5 steps. Repeat them for 21 days.

#1 GATHER your toxic thoughts
Verse: “Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts.” Psalm 139:23
Ask: Holy Spirit, what are you saying to me now? 
Tell your toxic thought to the Lord. He knows it already, and it helps you to speak it out.

#2 REFLECT on healing thoughts
Verse: “And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting!” Psalm 139:24
Ask: What healthy thought could displace this toxic memory?
Find a specific Bible verse that is the vaccine against this dis-ease of your mind

#3 WRITE things down to make them part of you
Verse: “…The king is to write for himself on a scroll a copy of this law…so that he may learn to revere the Lord his God…and not consider himself better than his fellow Israelities…” Deuteronomy 17:18
Ask: Where can I write this verse down and see it often to remember it?
Put it on the fridge, bathroom mirror, on the dash, or make it into a screen saver

#4 REVISIT these thoughts for 21 days
Verse: “I took counsel with myself…” Nehemiah 5:7
Ask: Where have I come from, where am I going?
Bring that verse to mind in times of difficulty and reflect at the end of each day of what happened when you did, and did not.

#5 REACH for a good action to overcome evil
Verse: “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” Romans 12:21 
Ask: What can I do to overcome evil with good? 
Perfect love drives out fear. That love is not just from God, but it comes through you. As you love others you drive fear out from your life. Contact five people each day and encourage them. By helping others you help yourself.
