When the Joy of Motherhood Feels Heavy: Understanding Postpartum Depression (PPD)

How Diet Can Affect Mental Health

This episode explores how diet can affect mental health. Based on Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride's excellent book, Gut and Psychology Syndrome. Pick up a copy today. But, in the meantime, here are my thoughts on the GAPS diet mentioned in this book and my overall option based on other nutritional articles, books and people I've spoken to. ANY natural treatment for physical or mental healing and wellness is what our Podcast is all about. God has provided all kinds of plants, fruits and water based nutritional items for our overall mental and physical well-being, so why not explore what He has for us so we can live our best lives possible? I truly appreciate your support and welcome your thoughts, questions, and suggestions for future podcasts.

A Heavy Silence & Available Resources

The Podcast episode is about breaking the silence and seeking help. Today we have so many resources to get mental health wellness assistance. Best part is can be anonymous. We know the first step is often hard or scary, but we're here to help and there are so many resources wherever you live. With today's technology, you have cell phones, emails, computers, landline phones, libraries, online chat, community centers, churches, and places of worship, even your local mall, stores, medical clinics and hospitals, etc. Even, your local police or fire deparment. Just go or call. People are ready to help. The first step is the beginning of the new you. Or if you want to help a family member or friend. Thanks for listening to our Podcast and for your support. We want to keep bringing you the best content available and stories to uplift your spirits and improve your life. These projects give me a personal boost to know it's here to help others. We all need encouragement and I am here to serve. God bless you. Amen!

For My Daughters and Sons

Have you ever stopped to think about whether people in the 21st Century are living in unseen bondage? Today, many are deceived into believing that strict diets or unwritten rules are required to please God. But our Heavenly Father, Almighty God, never intended for us to live in chains. It is merely man-made rules that foster division and hatred among religious communities, when in truth, we are meant to be united as one human family. God created the Earth to be a place of peace. Although the forces of darkness may seem strong today, a divine intervention is on the horizon. The time will come when the truth about the adversary's failure is revealed to everyone. While worldly control seems to prevail now, God will soon step in, vanquishing evil and ushering in a restoration of Earth that mirrors Heaven itself. The Book of Revelation promises this future, and it is a promise we can hold onto with unwavering faith. So, we must wait patiently for the Lord’s timing, which is always perfect. Soon, the entire world will hear the message of Jesus and the Word of God, and He will return to make all things new. AMEN.
