188 Practice, practice, practice
What are your ādefaultā thoughts? What are your ādefaultā actions? Are you pleased with either of these? Do you wish you would think more positively and act more Christlike? Would you like that to be your ādefaultā?Ā Change is possible but itās going to take practice, practice, practice. Thatās because deep neural ruts and connections have been formed in our brains by our past ādefault.āĀ Today we discuss how to make those changes we so desperately need and want by working with the brainās natural God-given design. The brain is designed to eliminate unnecessary connections and strengthen important ones. This means we have the ability to let go of negative thoughts, painful memories, and lie-based beliefsāwhile reinforcing faith, peace, and truth.Iāll give you three areas to focus on to begin to make that change: pruning, feeding and fasting, and sleep.Resources Mentioned:Ā·Ā Ā Ā Ā For more tools, questions for reflection, and resources to help you on your journey, download the Listener's Guide for this episode: Scriptures Mentioned:Ā·Ā Ā Ā Ā Colossians 3:2, Romans 8:11, Romans 12:2, 2 Corinthians 10:5, John 15:2Are you wondering how Life Coaching works?

185 Rest, My Beloved
God is calling us into a place of continual, satisfying, unhurried rest in Him. To slow down. To make quiet and purposeful space. But this is counter cultural and flies in the face of everything we believe makes us valuable and worthwhile. The result is busy, frantic, unsettled lives, striving for something more. That āmoreā is found when we heed Godās call to āRest, My Beloved.āResources Mentioned:Ā·Ā Ā Ā Ā Another Beautiful Life: A Christianās Journey to Finding Peace and Healing in Brokenness by Tricia Zody https://a.co/d/hoPKsBO on AmazonĀ·Ā Ā Ā Ā Soul Keeping by John OrtbergĀ·Ā Ā Ā Ā The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark ComerĀ·Ā Ā Ā Ā For more tools, questions for reflection, and resources to help you on your journey, download the Listener's Guide for this episode: https://www.triciazody.com/guideScriptures Mentioned:Ā·Ā Ā Ā Ā Romans 12:2Are you wondering how Life Coaching works?
