Ever wondered how your emotions and thoughts are connected to what your body feels? In this Hope Huddle conversation with counselor Amy Foraker, we explore how our bodies remember, how words can shape our stories, and how God brings healing even in the hidden places.

In this week’s Rise from Ashes, we invited Amy Foraker back for another Hope Huddle. She is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in private practice as well as a clinical supervisor and staff therapist at Bayside Counseling Center in Granite Bay, CA. Her passion is walking alongside others as they navigate the wild complexities of being fully human yet made in the image of God.

Have you ever been surprised by your own reactions or emotions? Amy had some fascinating insights about how our bodies are always listening and remembering, even long after we feel like our brains have “moved on.”

Surprisingly, we all had stories that elicited strong reactions in us, around the color purple. Listen in as you hear how God has been redeeming those stories — and how we can use our emotions as clues for restorative work in our lives as we get curious and invite Him into our process.
