In this episode of the My Streaks podcast, Jeffery Downs discusses the negativity bias of the brain and how to rewire it to be more positive. He explains that the brain has a natural tendency to focus on negative information due to its survival instinct and the impact of negative events. Jeffery suggests several strategies to rewire the brain, including practicing gratitude, reframing negative thoughts, and being mindful or meditating. He emphasizes the importance of consistent and deliberate actions over time to rewire the brain's response to stimuli.
