If you’re part of the Love Life Sober Community, you’ve definitely heard me reference Dr. Lee Warren’s work. His insights on how God designed our brains to heal have deeply shaped the way I think about sobriety, suffering, and what it actually looks like to take our thoughts captive.
So today’s podcast episode feels extra special.
Dr. Lee is here, and we’re talking about his powerful book The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery and how his “Ten Commandments” for mental and emotional health can help you break free from alcohol, stop believing every thought you think, and start rebuilding a life you actually want to live.
And let me just say, “life-changing” is in the title for a reason. It truly is.
In our Community, we talk all the time about how changing your thinking can change your drinking. This book is essentially the operator’s manual for how to do exactly that.
It teaches you how to biopsy your thoughts, identify which script you’re running (your own, God’s, or sometimes even the enemy’s), and how to transplant new, true thoughts in their place.
See what I mean?
Life. Changing. 🩷
If you’ve ever thought…
“My trauma is too big… nothing can help me.”
“My feelings feel true, so they must be true.”
“One drink means I’ve ruined everything.”
This conversation offers hope, practical tools, and a reminder that changing your thinking can truly change your life.
What You’ll Learn:
• Why your pain is valid and why comparing trauma keeps you stuck
• How your brain can heal through Neuroplasticity (and why you’re not “stuck” with the brain you have)
• Why feelings aren’t facts and how to practice curiosity instead of reacting
• What Dr. Lee calls the “tomorrow tax” and why “no anesthesia allowed” changes everything
• Whether the effects of alcohol on the brain can improve over time in recovery
• What happens when you slip—and how to learn instead of spiral when building new pathways
