Pause and Plan

from Addict's Messy Marriage Hosted by B the Addict

Have you ever wondered how self-control or willpower works in the brain? I find it fascinating to see God's design and how He uses his design to influence our everyday actions. Addiction hijacked our natural pause and plan response and exchanged it for a constant fight or flight response. I have seen God changing this in my life, especially over the last year, where I am finding myself pausing rather than getting amped up when life happens. Walk with me as I explore the science behind what happens in the brain when we activate self-control/willpower. Material referenced in this podcast: The Willpower Instinct by Kelly McGonigal, Ph.D.
