The quest for soundness of mind and health of body is age old. These days, we are inundated by information that has gotten ever more vast and can seem ever more complicated. Be encouraged to know it can become more and more simple. Don't hear me say it is easy or that there are quick "fix-its", but after seeking to control our mind and health, today's guest, Janet Massey and I are learning the power of the Word of Truth in conjunction with kind movement and looking to Jesus. It has been absolutely transformational.  Consider Hebrews 12:1-4 and Romans 12:1-2. In both scriptures, we are given keys to unlocking our well being!

With a doctorate in Physical Therapy and a whole lot of life experience with physical limitations and the connection of wellness and faith, Janet has knowledge and expertise that is encouraging and enlightening. In today's episode, Janet shares a bit of her story which is truly remarkable, and practical and simple thoughts about how to move toward more wellness in mind, soul, and body. We are meant to live in wholeness in Christ.

We chat a little bit about all sorts of things that you've probably heard about - somatics, lymph massage, meditation, breathing. We touch on a lot of things that can be overwhelming and can often put us into either an avoidant or over functioning state! Yes, there is a lot of good science, but the methods and opinions and information seem endless right now. We talk about how intentional stress exposure, such as the shock of cold-water immersion, can teach our bodies to remain composed under pressure, and how such practices, coupled with faith, can fortify our capability to heal and grow. This episode sheds light on the often-overlooked connection between physical discomfort, spiritual strength, and the art of remaining present through life's challenges.
