Let’s define soul. In greek, the meaning is “breathe” or “psyche”. Soul is a “being”, or a “person”. This is the essence of a human created in the image of God, by his BREATH.
Soul work allows us to explore the mind, will and emotions as they connect to God. It is identity discovery — in learning about the unique design that is your masterpiece: you. You are a gift and you are lovable, enough, good and significant!

ALERT! There is something commonly showing up in the mental health world right now. Students are in virtual classrooms with extra access to the internet.
It's not uncommon for children who have unmet emotional needs to innately find unhealthy ways to cope. As humans, we have several emotions, but they can generally be boiled down to the ‘Basic Five’.

Over time, we're shepherding their hearts. It's an investment, and we're not going to see the payoff right away because they are supposed to make the wrong choices and learn from making the right ones.
It’s imperative that our children and teens have some autonomous thinking as they grow. They will start to weigh the difference between the right choice without pain, or even with a little pain (like patience or delayed gratification). If we start this paradigm shift at a younger age, then the investment pays off earlier, or at just the right time.
If you get stuck in a typical parenting cycle of forcing or controlling, and you are using your power…

Regardless of the circumstances, the “hurricane” is coming. This can be represented by having a truly terrifying deadline coming up, family crisis or even a conflict with a friend. While the scenarios vary, the level of emotion can be the same with emotional fear (trauma) as actual physical threat!
What do you do? Do you choose to live in FEAR, with inner turmoil? Or instead, do you choose to let yourself experience healthy stress accompanied by inner peace?
You have the choice.
If you want to choose the latter, try sticking to these prompts:

Listening to the voice of your mad is not bad. Yours nor anyone else’s. Neither is sadness, guilt, shame, fear and all the other God-given red flags that come up when we have a need.
Tell me you don’t have feelings, and I’ll help you see where they leak out in your life.
However, we often fear the mad that comes out of our body. It’s a powerful force; a chemical energy made to fight! Instead, we put away our “no” and our “stop that” and we suck it up. This may lead a child to lose her sense of dignity or lead to low self esteem.

My passion is helping people uncover areas where they are ‘stuck’ and then get the change that they desire.”

Surrendering is a commitment, and an emotional response to your fear. Make a safety plan for the real danger, and surrender the rest. Take remaining worries captive. Receive peace and trust that everything is okay. You are safe. You are loveable. Accept that your mind is messing with you, and that your subconscious is trying to keep you safe; by creating a God-given reaction in order to protect your body. However, understand it is a false alarm and embrace it. Receive peace. Breathe it in, over and over again, until you receive it. Let the fear come, do its job, and then let it go.

There is a liar out there who wants you to believe you cannot have connection. That you don’t deserve it. That you will never be understood fully. That you are not good enough. I have found when I step out of battle, and let these thoughts run free reign in my head, they always win.

“The women I’ve met are probably women I never would have encountered otherwise. And now, I absolutely couldn’t imagine doing life without them in it.
