What kind of help and encouragement do you need?
If you want to see a basically clean, feel good movie, I recommend "The Unbreakable Boy". It's a heart-tugger for sure, and heart wrenching at times, but it's a good movie overall and based on a true family/story.
My husband and I went to see it as one of the fun things we did while on a get-away last week. It was great to settle in with him, some pizza, and whatever else we had with us to watch a good flick.
It's easy to observe what happens in a movie, but what if you could observe your life in such a way that you could gain more clarity and make powerful and intentional choices about your "script?"
That's basically what this week's episode explains how to do. If you haven't checked out this week's podcast yet, click here.

Are you exhausted? Like, it's just too much, exhausted?
Yeah, I feel it too.
Sometimes I'm exhausted because I put so much energy into something and haven't had enough time to regain personal and mental space to fill up on energy again.

What is taking up your energy recently?
How do you personally fill up on energy again?
Sometimes, I'm exhausted trying to please all the "red tape" things in life, like filling out tax forms, or taking the dog to the vet, remembering to pick up stamps, or keeping up with continuing education credits for my counseling license.
Sometimes I'm exhausted because I overthink things, and then I connect things to other things in my brain, and I need to turn my brain off for a bit because it's just too much. And, sometimes, I'm just physically tired.
I know you've been there.
Exhaustion is a real thing.

ANNOUNCEMENT!
The SHINE Subscription, is about to go live this Saturday, February 15, 2025. The SHINE Subscription is like having a personal coach, a friend, a devotional partner, and a daily planner right at your fingertips as it gives you bite-sized prompts and helpful downloadable tools to use as you go through your day as well as helpful suggestions and mental health tips each week. Best of all, it is just $16 a month to subscribe to something that can definitely make life simpler.
The first two weeks of the SHINE subscription focus on the concept of rest: personal rest/spiritual rest, and resting in God and include other helpful resources for managing life with less stress. I hope you'll join when it becomes available this Saturday, February 15, 2025.
Each month will have a new theme of focus, so that we can dig deep together and continue to grow and glow in the Lord and in our mental health.
For now, though, I invite you to take a moment and breathe deeply...just for a moment, take in a really slow, deep breath, and slowly, slowly release it. Rinse and repeat. This helps your nervous system to reset when you're exhausted, overwhelmed, or stressed, and it just feels so good when your muscles can relax and be reenergized.
