3 Key Takeaways from This Episode

Your body was designed by God to return to peace.

Trauma and anxiety may disrupt your nervous system, but God’s Word promises peace that surpasses understanding (John 14:27).

Biblical practices can reset your nervous system.

Breath prayers, grounding in God’s creation, gentle movement, and Scripture meditation calm your body while anchoring your spirit in Christ.

Resetting Your Nervous System Is A Process

Just like Romans 12:2 teaches, transformation takes repetition. Each time you replace fear with truth and practice regulation, you’re rewiring your brain toward freedom.
