As Christians, much of our focus is on allowing the Holy Spirit to have more and more of us; and for us to lessen the influence of our flesh, and of various evil forces on our life; thus getting closer to God. Brain Science, however; lends us another level of insight into why we are what we are, and why we do what we do; since different portions of our brain control various aspects of our being.
Brain injury and brain impairment do not occur solely because of trauma to the head; but can occur because of various life choices such as inadequate diet and exercise, destructive patterns of thoughts and emotions, lack of sleep, smoking, alcohol consumption, overindulgence of caffeine, overexposure to various toxins, and many other things. Depending upon the portion(s) of the brain affected, this can result in a multitude of problems. Less severe problems may include tendencies toward ineffective usage of time and disorganization, procrastination, tendencies toward pessimism, and short term memory problems. More severe problems may include anxiety and panic, depression, excessive anger, impulsivity, a propensity for relationship problems, and physical aggression.
The book Change Your Brain, Change Your Life does an extremely thorough job of showing us how we may correct a brain gone bad, and how to maximize our brain's functioning.
