Self-care is important. Soul Care is even more important. There's so much in our lives today that helps contributes to stress. The needless murders of so many brown and black men and women. The pandemic continuing, with numbers rising once again. Vaccines are being questioned by so many. Loneliness and tension rising in our homes. We’re all becoming worn out and exhausted and even angry. And yet, we keep pressing forward. What we need is some soul care.
A step-by-step process you can use every day
Engaging in marketplace ministry as a journalist and host of News in Motion, it was important for me to walk back through what I learned in my spiritual formation courses and caring for my soul, which I learned at the seminary in the Healing Care department under Dr. Terry Wardle. The step by step process of becoming centered with Jesus helps me in my day-to-day work and activities.
The process for soul care includes:
- How to find a place for stillness.
- What it means to “sanctify your imagination.”
- A journey for finding your “safe space.”
- The importance of inviting Jesus to join you.
- Lamenting
- Allowing Jesus to respond to you (Gail shares how to listen for this).
- Journaling - Be sure to write down what you receive so you can capture it.
What is adding to the stress in your life right now?
What can you do instead of paying attention to all the negative things in your life? Gail tells you how to get deal with the negative influences.
Finally, Gail ends with three questions you can answer for yourself to help you gain some clarity around how stress is a factor in your life right now.
Are you willing to go through the process daily to bring some soul care into your life? If not, you might find that the price you pay is too high.
