Your brain is an organ in your body that can break down, especially when there has been trauma or chaos in your history. But so often Christians will project shame on anyone who tries to address brain health with any other tools than "spiritual" resources. But God gives us many tangible tools (medicine) in addition to intangible resources (prayer, talk therapy, etc.). This episode helps you understand how to use all the available resources for better brain health and more peace.
