hi I'm dr. Caroline leaf toxic thought is the first of the dirty dozen that I want to discuss with you and this is fascinating because thoughts go through a process as they develop in your mind

and essentially the first 24 to 48 hours that information comes in your brain and a thought is busy forming it's in a temporary state so you still have the chance to be able to actually completely

get rid of it before it actually takes permanent hold inside your brain so this information comes in through the five senses it swirls around the middle of your brain for 24 to 48 hours a temp in

memory will also form over there but the beauty of this is that you can capture that thought and eliminate it immediately so capturing toxic thoughts and getting rid of them at that point is

very important but sometimes we don't and sometimes it goes on longer than 24 to 48 hours and there tempra memory then converts into a pretty much a semi-permanent memory and I say

semi-permanent because no memory is permanent in your brain because you can wire out anything out of your brain you see very often we get these toxic thoughts in our brain and they become so much part of us we get changed to those

toxic thoughts they become these habits that actually make us feel that this is who we are they define us but if they are not healthy thoughts if there are toxic thoughts they are not who you are

and if you wire them in you need to wire them out so a toxic thought doesn't define you and if it has gone in its longer than 24 to 48 hours and you've been thinking in a certain way for five

or ten or twenty or thirty years you can wire that out as well sometimes we become so comfortable as I said with toxic salts that we actually think well this is Who I am but you can want any

toxic so whether it's just heaven now in the next 24 to 48 hours you can get rid of it a little easier but once it's wired in you can still wire it out so toxic thoughts you have to deal with it

deal with them at any stage wherever you at in your life
