- Hey friends - share this video to spread the word that chronic pain is reversable! The more we get this message out, the less people in chronic symptoms and pain.

This video answers the question one of my viewers asked, "How do you allow the love of God and the gospel to come in and the change the way your brain is wired?"
In this video I about how the brain is 95% hardwired by the time we are in our adult years, including our pain! But don't give up hope! Through neuroplasticity we can change how it's wired. If we don't choose to interrupt our own thoughts, emotions, behaviors and perceptions, we end up living a pre-programmed life that is based on our past experiences.
In order to rewire our brain, we have to teach ourselves a new way of thinking by thinking beyond how we feel. We do not have to be controlled by our past emotions.
Joe Dispenza talks about how our personalitytraits are built off of an event that led to a thought, that lead to an emotion, that led to a mood, to a temperament, and finally to a personality trait. When those personality traits were learned from a fearful moment, our brains become programmed to fear and nervous system dysregulation.
Taking the truth that Christ gives us we can challenge our thoughts, think deeper than we feel and diligently and with perseverance we can teach our brain to wire differently. The bible is full of examples of him asking us to think in ways that are contrary to our flesh and what comes naturally to us. Neuroplasticity is all over in the bible.
By allowing God to heal our hurt from the past, and then embracing and noticing the blessings in the "today," we can rewire our brains with truth, freedom and love from God.

While I discuss Rick Hanson, Joe Dispenza and others work in this video, it’s important to point out that these individuals do not claim Christ as their truth and therefore, I am not crediting them as experts that always brings biblical truth, but rather who, in someone way or another, have discovered Gods creation of neuroplasticity,, how personality traits can be developed and how we can change the brain patterns. I learned from them, but the majority of my video is focused on biblical truth being what sets us free from self protective habits and sets is firmly grounded in the safety that God provides to us through trust in Him
Thanks for clarifying
Thank you. I’ve been in pain and sick since I was a teenager (I’m 54 now), have had a lot of trauma in my life and have suspected it is “neuroplastic” pain/illness for awhile now yet Every. Single. Resource I’ve found on this subject is on the basis that we evolved and we need to trust our body, our brain…etc… no mention of trusting God or even any mention of God whatsoever so I appreciate finding someone who includes our Creator into the picture. No judgment to the people genuinely helping others with this but I know God created our brains so….pretty important piece of the picture to me. ❤
I’m a poster child for this lesson. My journey involved
1. Learning what is TRUE and dispelling the lies I had believed about God and myself/the world based on what is true about Him.
2. Asking Jesus (and then allowing Him) to return to those traumatic memories WITH me, as I processed them. Then allowing Him to lead me through them, showing me truth and speaking truth into me as we traveled together. He completely rewrote my view history.
3. Realizing that I have my own voice, that my thoughts are not dependent on anything or anyone else besides the Lord.
It’s very, very difficult to do God’s will if we don’t know what is TRUE.
It took me several years to do this, and it’s still a daily walk, but I saw NO HEALING until I submitted my mind to His truth.
Melanie - this sounds exactly like my story! Praise Jesus!
So good!
How do you do that?
I'm a 71yr women, who grow up with a "narcissist" mother and divorced from my father at a young age. Always feeling a lack of love, but winged my life this way. Later on in life, I learned more about God/Jesus and daily miracles that come my way. Now, living with love, from a true source, feels heavenly ♥️🙏
I listen to music by "Lauren Daigle" and dance my heart ♥️ away 🙏🎶
@@lindafoyle5981thanks for that tip. I just listened to her for the first time- really good! Reminds me of Adele a lot! Very uplifting.
Does the Bible go into the heart?
Wow that is awesome, please pray for me to find this too!!
"rewire our brain with TRUTH" . That's refreshing. Other people are preaching some kind of reframing your perspective to whatever FEELS good. At least that is what I'm seeing in pop healing culture "YOUR truth" nonsense. Like anything to keep you coming back. People are permitted to avoid the painful truths of life that they can rewrite their truths like they're gods
Great comment. The cult of individuality which teaches us to be so unto ourselves certainly is thin gruel at the end of the day. We do need others and when we all are separated by location with different everything it certainly seems we become more efficient in DOING life but at the terrible price of not BEING with self or others in any satisfying way.
I’m so grateful I found your video!!! I have been trying to renew my mind & transgir my mindset because I developed long covid/me/CFS & POTS. This chronic state of pain & debilitation has taken my life. I was looking for a faith based brain rewiring/brain rethinking guide. The good Lord had me find you tonight after I was watching a few others! Thank you for your research & study!! I hope to follow along your other videos to help me in my healing journey of chronic pain & fatigue.
I’m so glad! Welcome to the journey of healing.
Hi Jenn, I know this is random but I’d love to connect. I’ve always experienced sickness due to extensive childhood trauma but things came to a head and I developed POTS and CFS. I also was looking for some sort of brain retraining that is Christ centered! Would love to know how you’re doing currently.
@@danielle_0824 hi there. Feel free to reach out through my website!
Thoughtbythoughthealing.com
Jesus came to set us free, we have to transform our minds according to the Truth of the Word of God. One who knows the Living God can understand these Truths more in depth than those who don't know the Lord personally. Appreciate your work, continue🎉
God blessed us with a mind scientist that believes in him and works for him. That's the only way I believe I can truly succeed in this life long challenge
Know how much God loves you, God is taking care of you. You are the object of God's love
Jen, this is probably the best and most beautiful explanation regarding brain rewiring and healing and terrific suggestion one can use. Anyone can benefit from this conversation whether they put faith in God or not. I will relisten to this one many times over to remind myself of the potential and high probability of health and healing. God bless you. PS..even the sound of your voice is healing for me.
Aw thank you! So glad it’s encouraging.
You are an amazing woman. I have gotten so much from this video that I need to take notes! I am a Christian woman too and it is refreshing to meet a confident woman who is weaving the Gospel into her life to help with anxiety, pain and other nervous systems issues. I have all of these issue to. Thank you for being you and opening up and providing detailed examples so we can learn and apply to our lives.
Thank you for the encouraging and Godly insights. You clearly are a woman of faith. God bless you!
This is amazing!! Love it💗 thank you so much!
I'm glad you liked it 😊
Thanks Jennifer that was great! I especially liked the part about catching emotions that come up as being an invitation/opportunity to go to God 🥰
I know! I loved that too!
God and the Gospel & TRUTH Jesus Christ - will Always prevail. Thank you for your video ❤
beautiful thoughts
This is so encouraging, especially bringing the word of God in. Thank you!
You’re welcome. His word is powerful
Grateful for your time in sharing amazing information with God walking along side you
You are so welcome
You are SOOOO amazing, and inspirational and relatable and heart centered, and I thank you so much for all these incredible tips that you shared with me and so many others. Blessings.❤
This was such a sweet message. Thank you 🙏
Praise God!
So glad i found you. Perfect timing. 🙏🙏🙏🙏👑👼🏼💖
Welcome!!
Thank you so much for sharing so much great info! I just learned of this yesterday and I’m excited to learn and rewire my brain and God heal me so I can enjoy eating and doing things again!! Bless you!!!!
You are so welcome! It is life changing, for sure!
🙏✝️👏
I too have been on this journey re wiring my brain and renewing my thoughts to find freedom from chronic pain and illness!! Praise God it’s possible! It’s been years and I am so free! I have a heart to help others in this area and I am blessed by how incredible your knowledge is and ability to articulate what you know ☺️ I love all the authors you mentioned, Joe was big in my growth. How did you get started becoming a coach to those with chronic illness? Did you take any courses or just reach out to others with your wealth of knowledge?
Hi Michelle, that's so exciting! What courses did you take? Because mind-body pain is new research, there is not a professional or medical degree you can get that studies these things which is really unfortunate. Most my knowledge comes from healing myself, that step is invaluable. If you are able to pay attention to what worked, you can show people how to do it themselves, but I was also able to take a 3 month practitioners course with Howard Schubiners & Hal Greenham, and I also took a course through PPDA - David Clarke. On top of that I studied the bible for a year and took biblical counseling courses through my past church. And then I spend ALLL my extra time studying anything neuroscience that I can get my hands on! I have a more detailed list on my website if you want to check it out. :) I would say that most people who want to heal from chronic pain should primarily be looking for someone who has used the tools themselves to heal, which I was able to do. I would love to hear more about your journey, maybe we should do an interview sometime :)
Good for you! Where did u go for the training?
What were you sick with?
Thank you for this inspirational message!!!! I love how you intertwined neuroscience with the gospel and your own personal experiences.💜💜💜
I am on my journey to freedom from pain and suffering and I am beyond grateful for every piece of advice that you share from your journey to freedom!!!!
I believe best way we can use the pain that God allows us to experience is to help others who are suffering. Thank you for doing that!!! 💜💜💜
Takes balls and sacrifice to do so in this godless world. God bless her cuz if you want followers on your youtube channel you don't talk about God
Thank you for sharing your experiences with such courage❤
I've been trying to remind myself to thank God for the unsolicited challenges, like the leak I just found in my ceiling, when I have NO room for any setbacks right now. God's telling me despite all that's on my plate this is my opportuity to prove to us I can handle this lol. Normally I'd go into a nihilistic depression over my helpless luck of the draw lol
Way to challenge your brain! You can handle it! He has equipped you.
Thank you for this!! I love this!! I love the science of the brain and how you’ve intertwined the word of God is amazing!! Thank you for your work!!
This might be helpful if there is no medicine or treatment available. But, if there is medicine i will take it, and as always pray and listen to the gospel.
I wish you Gods blessings ❤
This is fantastic! Thanks for providing such amazing support, information, and inspiration for the mindbody journey with Christ!💝
You’re welcome!
Thanks so much for helping us for free! So so grateful for your videos 😊
You are so welcome!
Thank you for your time.....
My pleasure
I pray God heals me from anxiety, i always feel afraid to look at people and feel anxious around people, my eyes cant take it anymore ,Jesus i pray you deliver me from this
Hey try listening to this podcast, particularly the part about prayer The Opposite of Anxiety is Trust #christian #tms #mindbodysyndrome #neuroplasticpain

Look up and meditate on scriptures about how much God loves you!
This was such a blessing😭 God is so good! Thank you
You are so welcome! Welcome to the journey of healing b
Thanks for this. ❤
You're welcome 😊
Jenn Johnson love your work so much! I am now at the end of the second month of my self-designed brain-retraining CFS recovery program which draws extensively from Rebecca Tolins site and work. When I first did her brain retraining meditation I started sobbing with joy. It's a new life and a new personality for me as 30 years of disability from ME/CFS/Fibro falls away. Can't wait to watch all your videos during my daily brain retraining education time.
I’m so glad you’re on your way to healing! It truly is a new life!
I’m very excited to find you. I’m learning about rewiring the brain after my my body freaked out on me. I can’t wait to check out the authors that you mentioned.
Wonderful!
Thank you so much for this video. God’s timing is so incredibly perfect. I’d asked the Lord for help this morning and this was the first video on the feed when I opened YT. 🙌🏻
Awesome! That’s so cool. ❤️
Rewiring the brain is what the bible calls renewing the mind to who God says you are
Beautiful!! Thank you for this fabulous insight and wisdom!
You’re welcome. ❤️
This is an absolutely wonderful video. I can come back to this again and again. Thank you for putting this information out there.
Wow, I just came across your video and it’s amazing! Just what I needed!
This is very interesting. If I’m understanding you correctly, personality traits can be based on lies…?! Thank you so much. This is awesome. I feel liberated already. ❤️
Yes / they are learned as a way to keep us “emotionally safe” and not always who God created us to be - rather the product of a broken world.
I just found you. Thank you for this video! I just discovered the process of rewiring my brain and joined a coaching group a couple months ago. It's Bible based (or I wouldn't have done it) and I'm so thankful for it. This video really helped my understanding AND determination to endure. I have several friends who they or their teens are dealing with my same health challenges. I will be sharing this with them.
Awesome ❤️
Good experience for you, God had made more angry and bitter thanever
I’m sorry to hear that. Sounds like you’ve experienced some rough things. I see you, and I’ve been there
Great information!
❤
This is helpful
Awesome!
These sensations in your body are just manifestations of anxiety ( and anxiety is just a neutral energy flowing in your body) . Allow these feelings of energy. Its not about getting rid of sensations, its about getting rid of the fear of sensations. This works, I was set free from anxiety using this. The Lord led me to this. I combine scriptures and these techniques
I have never done journaling before, how do you start? Where do you start ? I would appreciate any helpful tips.
I have a way that I have my clients do it called “psalming it out”. It’s too involved to explain here. It Includes a brain dump, allowing raw emotions to show up in journaling and then writing truth back to yourself.
My spine has degenerated that causes severe lower back and neck pain. No surgery for me and no help from my PCP because of all rejecting patients medicine for pain. I think if they cannot help their patients need to find a different profession. Js and God bless you for this video.
Watch this video. Are you a victim of MRI Imaging? #backpain #painreprocessingtherapy
ruclips.net/video/m9LEBKvl3XM/видео.html
does your work help with balance issues fatigue and nervous system/digestion?
Yes, very very often. Take the pain test on my website and substitute your symptoms. - it’ll help you decide if it’s brain generated.
What if your body is so sick jts traumatizing you and you are struggling to believe in bible or personalize it, praying has become triggering becuz it's a loop of crying out to God for relief and help as it gets worse, i also get triggered by who i have to live with, im dependent on him
What do you do when your mind has been in such disassociation you feel like you don’t even know who you are anymore. I have so many body sensations and I think they are rooted in self loathing. The disassociation is pretty extreme.
Self hatred definitely will make your own body a unsafe place which will turn up the danger signal == symptoms
are you talking about real chronic pain from an extremely painful physical condition? Or are you talking about pain from mental and emotional states? TY.
All pain is real. Science is showing that all pain is generated by the brain. Some of the times the brain is producing the pain because of danger messages from the body (infection, fracture, cancer,etc). But most pain is produced because the brain detects danger (subconscious emotional) outside of the body.
Watch this video :)

Hi. I’ve just started listening to your video, because I felt led to listen to something about healing the neural pathways the Christian way. I can’t comment yet on your video, as I’m only near the beginning, but I’m also wondering if you believe in deliverance, as I do feel demons are responsible for a lot of our thoughts? However I haven’t heard you out, so I’m going to see if there is something God wants to teach me through you. ❤️
Welcome! My channel is not about deliverance, but rather about doing the work of renewing our minds by reframing , reappraising and taking power over our thinking
deliverance is very real & yes the enemy will affect/impersonate your thoughts!
@@kaylagoold4053 I definitely believe in deliverance. I personally am convicted that demons should be evicted first, and then we can more easily have our brains/thoughts rewired, by God, and the Bible.
Looking at hospice I'm so sick, terrified of dying and where I'm going, not being able to sleep due to suffering, barely eating and body is not letting me release so im full of gas urine stool, non stop suffering
Interrupting that pain/ fear cycle - claiming safety and security is your way out. It takes a while. Be persistent.
I pray complete healing through the intercession of divine mercy Jesus for you!!❤
Can we talk, just finished this video finally
I am working on a podcast with a pastor in the nest couple weeks that I think you might find helpful.
Have not been able to find anyone to take me on for a counselor when it comes to regular trauma therapy, have gotten turned away more times than I can count which just adds to despair and rejection and hopelessness
Don’t give up. Keep looking!
Ok, so still listening, viewing pain as a sensation vs a threat, i get it, but...god also gave us senses to perceive danger, pain being one of them, how do you know it's just a sensation vs a threat, im pretty sick and my pains are all just sensations , i got some real scary stuff going on
If you have TMS then it’s all perceived threat, it’s not real danger.
What book or article were you referring to where Joe D. explains personality traits that can lead to persistent pain? Thank you
Hi Marcie, was I talking about Joe or Schubiner? If Schubiner, it is probably from “unlearn your pain”
Oh, actually you were referring to Joe Dispenza. Was it possibly from his book called something like "Breaking the Habit of You"? @@ThoughtByThoughtHealing
Did you purchase any Joe Dispenza meditations? Or attend one of his live events?
No. I’ve actually only listened to one or two of his videos/ interviews.
Can this be used as well with depression or other physical problems like dizziness
Hi Michelle, everyone will have a different belief on this, but "yes" I do believe this can be used for depression. Depression includes chemical imbalance, and emotions (subconscious) most definitely control our chemicals! As far as dizziness, make sure you have ruled out structural causes, but after that, yes! Dizziness is a very common MindBody symptom.
@@ThoughtByThoughtHealingthe chemical imbalance theory has been debunked. Please look this up.
Actually hormones like estrogen, which are chemicals, when dominant can cause other inflammatory mediators to arise and can bring about depression. True It is a misnomer to say depression is some nebulous chemical imbalance that’s never really explained however, as Jenn said, thoughts bring about chemical changes, and many other things as well. And these thoughts can lead to depression which then can bring about more feelings of pain and hopelessness in cycles and definitely imbalance in the whole system. Taking drugs is risky because of nasty side effects. Interrupting learned helplessness through conscious recognition of patterns and unconditional love through embracing a god of your understanding to co-regulate with seems a huge leap towards creating balance and healing more than drugs could ever touch on their own.
Repentance means to change the way you think :-)
Is anger a shadow emotion for fear?
I’m not an expert on shadow emotions, but it’s my understanding that shadow emotions are different for each person.
How does one rewire when they are struggling spiritually, struggling to believe they're forgiven and loved, seems like a fairy tail or like I'm incapable of believing, brain has taken a hit spiritually thru physical and emotional trauma, I don't think I ever got the gospel before suffering, then I was led falsely and that wired me, I need help I can't find, can u advise
Re-wiring means interpreting the fear/cycle with truth so it sounds like your first step is to begin to claim truth - defying the lie that you are incapable of believing.
How to do body check if whole body is in horrible pains?
I might start with more guided muscle relaxations, deep breathing, and orienting practices.
Before I was a Christian, I was deeply involved with new age and because of this, I don’t like visualization. Can you please explain me if you think visualization is Biblical?
Since this question is confusing for me, I am guessing our visualizing might have been very different. I view visualizing as an opportunity to practice planning to approach life differently - for example with less stress, a relaxed body, trusting in God from within, and being pain-free (which is a product of subconscious fear) or not being afraid of my pain/ symptoms. In addition, I will use it to practice remembering the things God has taught me. For example if he tells me to stop worrying about what others think of me , I will visualize 3 probable situations where I will need to remember what He has taught me. I hope that helps!
Look at all the scriptures about the imagination. Thats how you can spend time with too. Imagination is a direct communication to your secret place with him.
Visualizing in obedience is key. The Bible also tells us to meditate with him.
@@ThoughtByThoughtHealing thank you for your reply to this
@@MDEGAR73 you are welcome ❤️
are gut healing and dizziness also healable via this?
Yes. Take the pain test on my website. Just replace the word “pain” with your symptoms.
Is this apply for cfs and fibro
Yes absolutely
Great video!!! Gosh do you do or provide any hands on training? Thx so much!!!!
I do! Check out my website thoughtbythoughthealing.com
Do you have a contact person who can help me in person, I’m in Minnesota
I don’t know of any at this point. I’ll keep my ears open.
Also, Thinking about how our unhealthy thoughts/emotions we get stuck in are not healthy for our brains and our bodies (vs. the good and benefits that new/good/healthy thoughts bring) is a great point to ponder. I think often we get stuck being comfortable in certain wrong patterns for whatever reason…so recognizing how something is NOT healthy for us…is powerful (Examples I thought of: generational disfunction we are comfortable with, or because we feel “powerful” or we get attention somehow “there” in that (whatever) unhealthy “place/thought pattern” (-etc.))
Yes, we often don't recognize that these comfortable patterns are harmful,. We think it's normal and even good sometimes until we stop and examine them, especially if, like you said, they are generational. So powerful when we take the time to think about what were thinking :) PS. I love that you asked a question, it's nice to have a direction to go that people are interested in.
Body scans arent always healthy when the mind js triggered by physical symtpms, a lot of practioners say it can cause more harm, i cant do it
Yes, this is more proof that you have TMS. A body scan is only painful if you have TMS - perceived danger.
I read Joe Dispenza's book You Are the Placebo and it was really good until I got toward the end then it seemed to me sort of new agey.
Sounds about right
It is very new agey. I followed Joe Dispenza for awhile. As a Christian, there were a number of no go zones, but I prayed that God would not allow me to fall into error. I did some of the meditations, which could be helpful. Some I could not do at all, because they were too against Christian precepts. I don't believe in manifesting like he does.
What denomination are you? Is this biblically approved?
I’m non-denominational Christian. I’ve released over 100 videos so I’m not sure what part you’re asking is biblical. (Although I am not up for debating theological differences in biblical interpretation over RUclips.)
Pain science is science and shows how God created the brain and nervous system. Renewing the mind and capturing our fear thoughts is biblical in my interpretation. Pain reprocessing therapy was not created by Christian’s but helped me grow in my relationship with Jesus with a byproduct being reversing my pain. Most my clients experience similar but fear is a deceptive little buggar and can come in many forms that dysregulate the nervous system.
Complex PTSD and trauma, injury, abuse, isolation not on purpose, toxins, mold and heavy metals, affecting brain body, brain/ body on autopilot, no sleep, look 70 lbs, severely malnourished, alone, need basics to function, don't remember normal or god or things period, feel like I'm in a horror movie, not sure how to find help with the injury I have as well, in head and upper cervical spine where brain stem is, lot of limitations to everything I try and search
Journaling is a great place to start!
@@ThoughtByThoughtHealing journaling what, it's hard for me to even do that as I've gotten sicker, that's basically when my writing halted, used to journal, don't type much, I started to audio journal down the road but my phone is too full to be able to do it now
I prayed for you… so sorry for all your pain. Please keep crying out to God for help. I have issues also but not so severe but I’am crying out to the Lord. I believe he will answer but it’s not in our timing.❤️🙏
Any thoughts on how to combat fear that you won’t catch important things if you’re not alert at all times?
I’m hearing trust 🤣 but i still would love to hear your thoughts if you see this!
I think this would need a more in depth conversation to understand the story behind that fear. Trust might be in there, but there might be a deeper wound that needs attention. ✝️
Chronic pains worse not better
I’m sorry to hear that. Keep following and trying new ways of address the brain with curiosity.
