Is the New Year already stressing you out? We’re barely one month into January, but there’s no doubt that a new year doesn’t necessarily always mean automatic feelings of relaxation and renewal.
Sometimes, in fact, a new year is just an extension of last year’s problems! Or so we think. It can be easy to get bogged down with stress and worry when life is coming at us faster than we can keep up with. Thankfully, God is good, and He has provided us with resources in his Word that can help us achieve a sense of peace and calm even when storms come rushing at us.
Over the past week, the Counter Culture Mom Show hosted a few experts on the topic of stress, worry, and anxiety – and they shared their advice on how to bust those bad habits to the curb in a healthy and biblical way! If you’re interested in learning morning, check out the videos below!
Dr. Kevin ChapmanÂ
Living in fear does not have to be a normal way of life. In fact, you can learn to master your emotions with God’s help! This is the wisdom Dr. Kevin Chapman shares with his patients, and it’s never been more needed than during these anxious times. Kevin is a psychologist and the author of Mastering Our Emotions: Biblical Principles For Emotional Health. He is also the founder of the Kentucky Center for Anxiety & Related Disorders where he stresses the importance of scripture and how God’s truth can recalibrate everything in our lives when we pair it with common sense and practical application. The Word of God clearly tells us how to process our emotions – even the negative ones.
Eliza Huie Â
Why do we become so overloaded with stress? And even more importantly, how can we offload the pressure it puts on our minds and bodies? Eliza Huie is an author and biblical counselor who addresses healthy ways to deal with stress by understanding the autonomic, sympathetic, and parasympathetic nervous systems. When our mental gas pedals get stuck on anxiety and stress, it’s hard to learn how to regulate our emotions which affect our physical health, but it can be done! Eliza offers advice on how to clear your mind, activate the healing parasympathetic nervous system, and reset your heart and soul when facing difficult times.
