Rhythm-Habits

So much of your day is probably spent responding to emails, making decisions, managing crises, and people’s needs. By the time you reach the end of the day to care for your own habits or spiritual practices, your decision-making energy is often depleted, even if your desire for God remains strong.

And you might even tell yourself, “Next time I’ll pause and take care of myself.” But in the moment, stress takes the lead, and you react in ways that don’t reflect what you actually believe or value - this is based on how you were conditioned.

This then leaves you thinking - "Why didn’t I respond differently? I know better than that.”

The problem isn’t your intention. It’s that you have to make decisions when your capacity is already low.

In this episode, we explore how peace is lost, not because you lack faith or willpower, but because your brain and nervous system need support before pressure hits.

In this episode, you will hear about:
☀️ Why our brains give way under pressure.
☀️ How concepts from psychology can teach us how to "pre-load" wise responses as a way to prevent the pressure.
☀️ What scripture says about "committing our ways to the Lord."
☀️ A tangible strategy for developing a plan that works! It really works!

Ready to release the pressure and find ways to respond from your "wise brain"? Listen now!
