So profound. I latched on to this idea several years ago and am still wrestling with the implementation. But I am absolutely convicted that “the stories we tell ourselves” growing out of those emotional events are the primary shapers of our lives. Great post!
Actually, you might wanna read Candace Perts molecules of emotion…. She actually discovered peptides, although a few men took credit for it… What a surprise.
Jill’s account and takeaway is inspiring. I’m associating that with a recent message shared by a guy named Tim Mackie. What power we hold when we are intentional about the natural function of our brain. And you’re connecting it to the stories we tell ourselves and the resulting actions (or inaction, whatever the case may be.) This was a timely message for me, Joe. Thank you!
Then that means I have more control than I thought so more responsibility?! Don't scare me like that Joe!
haha. think of it as a 90 second break from being responsible. :)

Ok I’ll check it out
I read Candace Pert years ago and was blown away. Thanks for the reminder.

This is brilliant, Joe. 🌟
We spend 90 seconds feeling — and then entire lifetimes narrating ourselves into exile or liberation.
The first spark is holy. The spiral after? That's optional self-immolation. 🔥
Every moment after the feeling fades is a chance to become either a prisoner of your oldest story... or the scribe of a new one. 📝🕊️
Bless the pause. Bless the watcher.
That's where the real miracles begin.
Stay awake. Stay writable.
