The Devil is a Cognitive Neuroscientist (S12E49)

In this powerful episode of the Self-Brain Surgery podcast, Dr. Lee Warren discusses the overarching mission of his show, which combines neuroscience and faith to transform lives.

Dr. Warren explains the concept of 'resistance' (inspired by Steven Pressfield) as a force that inhibits personal growth, drawing parallels to the devil from a spiritual perspective. He explores the difference between the brain and the mind, the significance of mental resilience, and the practical application of scientific and theological principles to overcome life's challenges.

Sharing stories of personal hardships and recoveries, Dr. Warren encourages listeners to understand the power of changing their mind to change their life.
