With spring in the air, it's the perfect time to not just clean your home but also your mind. The Amens share practical tips to give your brain a proper spring cleaning, helping you set the stage for a happier, healthier year ahead.

They talk about how our thoughts can be shaped by genetics, environment, and past experiences, and why it's crucial not to let these thoughts control you. Dr. Amen explains to his patients that it's not the thoughts themselves that cause suffering, but our attachment to them. To help you break free from this attachment, they offer advice on being present, paying attention, and not overreacting to everything you see on social media.

The duo also dives into the power of language and how certain words can be triggering. They encourage taking a step back and realizing that not everything is about you. This episode is packed with actionable advice for anyone looking to improve their mental hygiene. Tune in to learn how you can take control of your mind and set yourself up for success and happiness for the rest of the year.
