All at once an angel touched him and said, 'Get up and eat.'"Affirmations I am safe to rest. I do not need to earn nourishment. God cares about my needs. Rest is not weakness; rest is wisdom.

Ep. 30 | Release Control | Devotional Meditation for Women of Faith wanting to Heal

In today’s She Rises Nourished devotional meditation, we slow down and return to the truth that changes everything: You are not the source…and you were never meant to be. Through somatic breathwork, gentle body awareness, scripture, and affirmations, this meditation will guide you to release control, calm your nervous system, and reconnect to God as your true source of peace, strength, and life. If you’ve been feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck trying to control everything around you…this is your invitation to rest, reset, and abide. There is a better way. And it begins here. Scripture: John 15:5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” Galatians 5:22–23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.” Affirmations (Speak, breathe, and receive): I am connected to the source. God is sustaining me. I do not have to strive. I release what I cannot control. I focus on what is mine to steward. Peace is flowing into me. I am safe to rest. I trust God’s timing. I let go of urgency. I am filled with love. I am anchored in peace. I am not the source. I am held and supported. God is in control, and I can rest in that. As I abide in Him, He produces good fruit in me. Reflection Prompt: What have you been trying to control that you need to release today? Go Deeper: If this spoke to your heart, I invite you to go deeper with me on my Be Nourished 360 Substack—where we continue these conversations around holistic health, mindset, faith, and living a nourished life in body, mind, and spirit. Closing: If this meditation encouraged you, share it with a woman in your life who may need this reminder today. You don’t have to carry it all. Stay connected to the source. When you rise nourished, you rise unstoppable. CHAPTERS Welcome: 00:00 Breathing: 00:55 Devotional: 02:55 Affirmations: 8:32 Prayer: 10:57 Closing: 12:20
