5 second strategy to change your life
<p>In this podcast I talk to bestselling author and top podcast host Mel Robbins about her book <a href="https://www.melrobbins.com/high5habit"><em>The High 5 Habit</em></a>, the brain-mind-body connection, building self-confidence, and so much more! The high 5 habit is a simple yet profound tool that can change your attitude, your mindset, and behavior. It can help you dig yourself out of a mental hole when you are feeling down or depressed. All you have to do, when standing in front of a mirror in the morning, is give your reflection a high 5, no matter how you feel in the moment. Instead of berating your reflection, or turning away from it, this little action helps shift your mind in a different direction. It helps break apart decides of subconscious programming and helps your brain create new programming that helps your brain change how you see yourself and what you are capable of. </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>🚨Get 15% OFF Brain-Ee bundle here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drleaf.com </p><p><br></p><p>📲Get 20% off my brain detox app with code NEUROCYCLE20 (only for first-time web subscriptions): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://web.neurocycle.app/AuthSplash ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</p><p><br></p><p>💡OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:  </p><p><strong>Qualia Senolytic: Resist aging at the cellular level, try Qualia Senolytic.

The Friendship Recession
<p>In this podcast I talk about the importance of friendships, and how they can impact our mental health. Friendships are a beautiful part of life that contribute so much value to our lives, in so many wonderful ways. However, in recent years, researchers have noticed a <a href="https://apple.news/ADMVeBomtQr-hwfKDf9318w">decline</a> in people’s social circles and number of friends. They have attributed this decline to many reasons, including the recent COVID pandemic, which left us more isolated and disconnected, and the higher cost of living, which means that more and more of use spend less time hanging out with loved ones and more time working to survive.</p><p><br></p><p>Women&#39;s Health article: <a href="https://apple.news/ADMVeBomtQr-hwfKDf9318w">https://apple.news/ADMVeBomtQr-hwfKDf9318w</a></p><p><br></p><p>🚨Get 15% OFF Brain-Ee bundle here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drleaf.com </p><p><br></p><p>📲Get 20% off my brain detox app with code NEUROCYCLE20 (only for first-time web subscriptions): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://web.neurocycle.app/AuthSplash ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</p><p><br></p><p>💡OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:  </p><p>-Bioptimizers Magnesium Breakthroug: <strong>So, don’t miss out on the most relaxing sleep ever with Magnesium Breakthrough!
