hi I'm Dr Caroline Leaf toxic choices you know every time that you think you are going to choose and then you're going to build thoughts into your brain so in other words every time you're thinking you're creating an

electromagnetic signal outside of the cell that actually influences the cell to make little proteins that grow branches and those branches grow into thoughts and those thoughts also have

chemicals attached to them and the thoughts together with a chemical form your attitude so we have attitudes that a general ude like you can describe a person as having a general that they're

negative or they're positive so you can have a general someone who sees the cup half full or half empty or that kind of thing and then each thought cluster in your brain and we have trillions of thought clusters in our brain each

thought cluster can also have its own attitude these attitudes this combination of the information plus the information plus the chemicals the emotional side of the thoughts which

form the attitudes influence every choice that we make so all day long we face with choic and those choices are influenced by our attitudes inside of our mind so our attitudes are our states

of our mind that influence the choices that we make every choice that we make is going to have a consequence so if we make a to if we have a toxic thought we're going to have a toxic Choice with a toxic Consequence the same thing we

have a healthy thought the opposite happens we have healthy choices so we need to use the five step switch on your brain process to be able to observe our thoughts so that we can influence the

kind of choices that we make which impact everything that we do so it's really worth watching and controlling our thoughts to make sure that they don't become toxic choices
