How to Practice Mind Renewal — with Julie Davies and Allie Marie Smith

—Watch the episode here

Discover how the miraculous connection between your mind and brain can transform your mental, emotional, and spiritual life. In this powerful follow-up conversation, Julie Davies returns to unpack the practical side of renewing your mind — and how scripture and neuroscience work hand in hand to bring real, lasting healing. If you’ve ever wondered how simply changing your thoughts could actually change your brain, this episode will show you it’s not just possible — it’s biblical, and now science is catching up.

You’ll discover:

  • How neuroplasticity allows your brain to form new pathways when you consistently practice healthy, truth-filled thinking
  • Why the “fork in the road” between dwelling on what’s good versus what’s negative literally shapes the neural trenches your mind travels down
  • The difference between coping in a season of true mental illness versus practicing daily mind-renewal once healing has begun
  • A treasury of practical “mind exercises” — from taking thoughts captive and scripture affirmations to gratitude, savoring, deep breathing, and training your eyes to look for good
  • A glimpse into Julie’s own daily rhythms of prayer, worship, journaling, and rest that keep her mind anchored in peace

For anyone who feels like “renew your mind” is a vague, overwhelming idea, this episode breaks it down into simple, doable exercises you can start today. You’ll walk away with concrete tools to quiet anxious thoughts, replace shame with truth, and build a mind that reflects the peace, hope, and freedom God designed for you.

Perfect for women who want practical, faith-filled strategies for their mental health journey, and anyone ready to move from surviving to truly renewing their mind day by day.

This episode is part two of a two-part conversation — be sure to listen to Part 1 first for the foundation on brain health and mental health. Get ready to walk away equipped with simple, powerful tools to renew your mind, heal your brain, and step into the flourishing life God has for you.
