-Thomas Edison
"The doctor of the future will give no medicine but will
interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in
diet and in the cause and prevention of disease."

WHAT IS THE MIND?
Ability to think & choose
Given & fashioned by God
Understand truths known in our spirits & wires them into our brain
Change the physical reality of the brain to reflect our choices
![Page 6: Mental Wholeness - The Process of Renewing Your Mind - Dr. S.O.S. - Issachar 2015](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042701/55c4a6cbbb61eb6c1f8b4622/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE MIND & THE
BRAIN?
The mind and the brain are not one in the same
Simplified perspective: brain = hardware; mind = software
Mind is manifestation of thought, perception, emotion, determination, imagination
Brain is a physical organ
Brain is the vessel in which the electronic impulses that create thought are contained
Your body (brain) is not in control of your mind, but the other way around
It is MIND over matter.

THOUGHTS & CIRCUMSTANCES
James Allen (1864 - 1912)
“A man cannot directly choose his circumstances, but he can choose his thoughts, and so indirectly, yet surely, shape his circumstances.”
We cannot control events and circumstances in life, but we can control our reaction to those events and circumstances
Matthew 7:13-14
Galatians 6:7-8
![Page 11: Mental Wholeness - The Process of Renewing Your Mind - Dr. S.O.S. - Issachar 2015](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042701/55c4a6cbbb61eb6c1f8b4622/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
IN THE WORDS OF JAMES ALLEN
“Let a man radically alter his thoughts, and he will be astonished at the rapid transformation it will effect in the material conditions of his life. Men imagine that thought can be kept secret, but it cannot, it rapidly crystalizes into habit, and habit solidifies into circumstances.”
Fear = Failure
Hate = Injury

THOUGHTS AFFECT MIND, BODY, & SPIRIT
James Allen
“The body is the servant of the mind. It obeys the operations of the mind, whether they be deliberately chosen or automatically expressed”
“Out of a clean heart comes a clean life and a clean body. Out of a defiled mind proceeds a defiled life and a corrupt body.”

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things. NIV
