Christy is joined by Dr. Lee Warren, neurosurgeon, author, and one of the most grounded voices on faith, suffering, and the way God designed our brains to heal. They discuss his powerful book The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery and how his “Ten Commandments” for mental and emotional health can help people break free from alcohol, stop believing every thought they think, and rebuild a life they actually want to live. Dr. Lee also shares the tender story of how grief reshaped his purpose after losing his son Mitch, and why your pain matters—even if someone else’s pain looks “worse.” If you’ve ever thought… “My trauma is too big… nothing can help me.”“My feelings feel true, so they must be true.”“One drink means I’ve ruined everything.” This conversation offers hope, practical tools, and a reminder that changing your thinking can truly change your life. What You’ll Learn: • Why your pain is valid and why comparing trauma keeps you stuck• How your brain can heal through Neuroplasticity (and why you’re not “stuck” with the brain you have)• Why feelings aren’t facts and how to practice curiosity instead of reacting• What Dr. Lee calls the “tomorrow tax” and why “no anesthesia allowed” changes everything• Whether the effects of alcohol on the brain can improve over time in recovery• What happens when you slip—and how to learn instead of spiral when building new pathways 💌 Links & Resources Dr. Lee’s Book:The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain SurgeryConnecting Neuroscience and Faith to Radically Transform Your Lifehttps://amzn.to/40EZs7i Join the Love Life Sober Communityhttps://lovelifesober.co.uk/community Order Christy’s BookLove Life Sober: A 40 Day Alcohol Fast to Rediscover Your Joy, Improve Your Health, and Renew Your Mindhttps://lovelifesober.co.uk/book Learn more about the Life Recovery Bible by visiting:https://hubs.la/Q041HjWm0 Connect on Instagram:@lovelifesoberwithchristy Subscribe on YouTube — Come hang with us!
