Today’s podcast is titled “Never Lose Your Soul”. We find our true identity and our complete fulfillment in an intimate and loving relationship with God and His son Jesus! However, we live in a world that is constantly working overtime to pull us away from the fulfiller of our needs, Jesus Christ himself. As we struggle through life, circumstances, people, and material goods often threaten to steal our joy, and cause us to feel like we’ve lost our soul. In today’s podcast, I, discuss what it means to lose your soul, and ultimately how to find your soul, your peace of mind, your joy, and your true fulfillment. In addition, we discuss how to find self-worth through our identity in Christ. We discuss how to become who God created us to be. The answer to overcoming anxiety, depression, trauma, life difficulties, and all things that bring us pain, is to remain close to Jesus, the shepherd. When we are in “right” relationship with God, the father, we are in our true self, and working towards becoming who God created us to be. Sadly, many of us are operating out of a false self, and this leads to a complete lack of peace, joy, and the losing of our very souls. This episode, points all listeners to Jesus and provides answers, techniques, and necessary life skills to finding victory in our lives.

Happy Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays and I love how it brings family together. I especially, love how it is a time for us to pause and thank God for the blessings that he’s given. As, I sat with my family, and while we are personally walking through a difficult trial. I was reminded of the importance of learning to find joy in the midst of suffering. The holidays are wonderful, but tend to bring up a lot of unwanted emotions for many people, especially when you’re currently walking through a difficult time. In this podcast, I discuss how to find joy in the midst of suffering from a Biblical point of you. In addition, I share with the listeners what I would share with clients who are struggling during the holidays from a psychological and spiritual perspective. In today’s podcast I also speak about cognitive behavioral therapy, and how to use these techniques to overcome negative thoughts, anxiety, depression, trauma, and how to replace them with God’s truth and His love and purpose for you. Blessings & Happy Thanksgiving! Crystal Ridlon, LPC, LMHC

Have you found yourself wishing for life before Covid? Life before losing a loved one? Life before unemployment or a lost relationship? Life before a divorce? Me too! In fact, the past several weeks in prayer God revealed my true self-thoughts “God please bring back life before Covid? Before losing loved ones? Bring back the 80 & 90’s before our nation was overwhelmed with political tension, complete lack of disrespect, and a sense of safety. I long for yesterday!” As I thought and prayed through these thoughts, God gently said “Stop Living in The Past”! We need to properly grieve what and who we lost.
