Have you ever felt held back by a habit or pattern of thinking that you feel powerless to break? Or perhaps felt frustrated by a loved one\u2019s failure to see mistakes they\u2019re repeating? The reason it\u2019s so hard, says today\u2019s guest, is that these actions are programmed into our subconscious minds from early childhood. And they affect not just our behaviour but our whole experience of life and even our risk of disease. The chances are we\u2019re completely unaware of these programs but, importantly, we can change them.\n\xa0\nDr Bruce Lipton began his career as a cell biologist graduating from the University of Virgina before joining the Department of Anatomy at the University of Wisconsin\u2019s School of Medicine in 1973. Today, he describes his work as bridging science and spirituality and in his bestselling book The Biology of Belief, he sets out the idea that our thoughts affect all the cells in our body.\n\xa0\nBruce explains how, as children, our subconscious minds \u2018download\u2019 what we see and hear adults around us doing and saying \u2013\xa0and these become the programs that drive our habits and thinking throughout life. Depending on our early experiences, they might be programs like \u2018I\u2019m not good enough\u2019 or \u2018It\u2019s my fault\u2019 \u2013 and it\u2019s not much of a leap to see how these might create unwanted behaviours as we grow up.\n\xa0\nHappily, we can cultivate self-awareness and learn to reprogram our minds, to create positive behaviour change. Bruce shares his practical guidance on how we can start to do that immediately.\xa0As we go on to discuss, reprogramming our minds can be incredibly liberating, affecting our happiness, confidence, health, work and relationships \u2013 with others and, crucially, with ourselves.\n\xa0\nThis was a warm and empowering conversation with a wonderful, kind-hearted man.
