That part of the brain believes that it's stuck and also believes that nothing that contradicts it is true at all. So you get into this tiny, I call it an anxiety spiral. And it believes that only it is real.

And people who have like strokes and they can only use that part of their brain, they believe that half the world doesn't exist because they're only perceiving it with the anxious mind and nothing else exists. But if you can go from I'm always going to be stuck in this bed to I'm always going to be free in this bed.

then part of your brain lets go of the anxiety and it turns to the part of the brain that is creative. And that is the part that a lot of people don't understand, that the opposite of your worst thought is not this serene bliss or calm. It is that you suddenly walk into the zone of the human imagination at its most creative and it can solve anything.

Here's the first thing you need to know. Anxiety always lies, but only always. Wait, what does that mean, but only always? I just like to say it. It's like, you know, a thing that makes you feel entrapped is always bad for you, but only always. And it's just a joke. It's a way of, because people think, ah, yeah, that's sort of, no, I really mean it. All your anxiety is lying. Oh, no, it isn't.

I put that at the end of the book. If I'd put it at the beginning, people would have said, F you, and just thrown it at the wall, right? Yes. Because it feels so convincing that your most frightening, self-hating thoughts are the truth. And it's lying. So that's the first thing. Just hear me now, understand me later.

So you nailed it in your book, Let Them. Because Let Them, a phrase where you're in this tense state, you're trying to control. So the anxiety spiral goes fear, control, back to fear again. And it just spins and it gets bigger and bigger. And the attempt to control gets bigger. And Let Them is a way out of the spiral. And it's genius. It's genius. So you know that it's genius.

You have it tattooed on your bodies, you know. So let them kind of relaxes the spiral. And then when you say, let me, let me do something, given that this person or this world event is happening the way it's happening. Let me assume my response ability, my ability to respond, given that my mind is free. So let me do what? Now you are using the part of your brain that creates.
