Lighten up - that's the doctor's orders. Published research by Dr. Karyn Purvis shows that, typically, it takes about 400 repetitions to create a new synapse in the brain. Which means we have to practice a thought 400 times before it becomes a belief or second-nature. BUT. When play is involved, that same synapse will develop over on 10 to 20 repetitions. So, today we're talking about lightening the f**k up while you learn to calm the f**k down. Apply for RewiredAF at kristenfinch.com/rewiredaf...

They’re told repeatedly that who they are is a mistake and everything they do is wrong.They’re given the message that they need to be smaller, quieter, PERFECT in order to be acceptable to the world. This is wha...
