How are you tending to your inner garden?
According to Neuroscientist, Dr. Joe Dispenza, we have between 60-70k thoughts a day and 90% of these are the same thoughts as the day before. The same thoughts lead to the same choices and the same choices, lead to the same behaviors which create the same experiences.
