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.

Our DNA changes shape in response to our thoughts. We feel shut down by negative emotions. 

This is reversed with feelings of love, joy appreciation and gratitude. DNA actually changes shape in response to our thoughts. 

Thinking and feeling anger, fear and frustration caused DNA to change shape according to thoughts and feelings. The DNA responded by tightening upend becoming shorter, switching off many DNA codes, which reduced quality expression. 

So we feel shut down by negative emotions. The great discover is that the DNA code shut down was reversed by feelings of love, joy appreciation and gratitude!

How can you reshape your DNA?

Understand NEUROPLASTIC. Our brain is neuroplastic—it can change and regrow. It is not like a machine but more like modeling clay that forms around what shapes it.

Understand NEUREOGENESIS. New nerve cells are birthed daily for our benefit. That sounds like Lamentations 3:22-23, “The Lord’s mercies…are new ev
