Listen Later

Have you heard someone say that emotions lie? Or that truth is more important than emotions? Just focus on Jesus! While this may make sense in our brain, we then leave “feeling” pain, hurt, confusion and more disconnected from God and hope. In this episode, you will hear some of the myths and thoughts about emotions and truth that can cause us more pain. Our body feels those emotions you are supposed to ignore. You will hear what is the purpose of emotions and how the are connected to our body. This episode briefly touches on some therapeutic techniques that connect the body and provides deep healing like Sensorimotor and Somatic Experiencing. Emotions are not always facts but they are REAL. So we will often AVOID emotions because we don’t like the feeling of them connected to our body. Most importantly, you will be lead into deep intimacy with Jesus where you can gain more strength, wisdom and revelation from the Holy Spirit because of your emotions. You will be led into a place of healing and encounter with Holy Spirit with your emotions. Be ready to be brave in this powerful and life changing episode about emotions!
