13. Can We Heal Ourselves? | What It Looks Like To Rebel Against A Culture Of Self-Healing & Turn To God Instead

It feels like we're constantly being bombarded left, right and center by messages telling us we should be able to heal our bodies and help ourselves through positive thinking, manifesting and that the power is all from within.
While I definitely feel we need to be active participants in our own wellness journeys, I also think that believing we can or should be able to do it all on our own is dangerous and will most likely lead to more shame and confusion.
Listen in as I share insight from Isaiah 1:5+6, as well as my own journey with learning to entrust YOU (the listener :D) to God with your own healing journey.

12. 3 Lies The Enemy Would Love You To Believe When You Are In the Middle of The Anxiety & Can’t See A Way Through It

Hey friend, does it feel like EVERY premenstrual phase you're wrestling with the same questions, believing the same lies, thinking the same thoughts? Does it feel really hard to decipher what is true and what's false, what are lies and what is reality?
In this episode, I share 3 lies the enemy (aka Satan!) would love for you to believe and be consumed by during your premenstrual phase, so you stay stuck in the paralysis, despair and darkness. 
While this is a heavy and hard topic to talk about, we need all the light of Jesus we can get when discussing it. I pray God's clarity, truth & light would fully cover you as you listen to this episode.

10. ”When You Pass Through The Waters, I Will Be With You” | God’s Promise Of Being With You Through The Wind, Waves & Fire Of Premenstrual Anxiety

In today's Thursday episode, I share about Isaiah 43:1-3, and how it can be hard to grasp the idea of walking through hard seasons. Yet even in the middle of HARD & TRIAL, God is faithful and doesn't leave us to walk alone.
I hope this episode provides a deep reassurance that despite the anxiety, the overwhelm & the despair feeling so real, like it's going to swallow you up, God remains with you through the wind and the waves, through the fire of premenstrual anxiety.

7. ”I Have Stilled & Quieted My Soul” | An Invitation From Psalm 131 To Seek Still & Quiet

It can often feel like the anxiety and overwhelm are so all-consuming, like there is no way around or through it. It can start to feel like we’re grasping at anything for a solution, for anything that will fix the or take away the anxiety.
Psalm 131 invites us to humbly come before God and trust that he will meet us there- even in the throes of anxiety and feeling paralyzed by overwhelm.
I encourage you to take advantage of just being with this episode. Find a quiet, comfortable place and just listen. Allow your body and mind to rest.

Does the thought of a New Year immediately make you dread the idea of coming up with new year’s resolutions? I get it.

In this episode, I encourage you to put your year’s “to-do” list down, and start just listening to what God is inviting you into!
Let’s dive into it!

4. Is The Anxiety Feeling Too Much? Listen In To What Philippians 4:6+7 Says About Anxiety, Gratitude & Peace

Welcome to Contemplative Thursday's! 
Every other Thursday, I'll be doing more of a contemplative, "being" episode, as opposed to "doing". This is when you are invited to sit, rest, listen and allow God to speak to you through prayer, reading Scripture passages, journaling, breathwork... all the things that encourage stillness and being present with yourself, your mind and body and with God. 
Today we're looking at Philippians 4:6+7, seeing what it tells us about anxiety, gratitude and peace. 
So find a comfy, quiet spot in your house to sit or lay down, grab a notebook, pen & Bible, and let's practice stillness with God!
