Words shape your brain

Choose the words you use. The language we speak shapes the brain.

The parts of the brain that control language also participate in regulating heartbeat, hormones, the immune system, and breathing. This means the words you use and hear every day affect how you feel and what you think.

Since words have power, choose them more carefully, especially when speaking about yourself.

Choose your friends and environment. Surround yourself with loving relationships to positively rewire your brain.

“Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic. Capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it.” — Albus Dumbledore
