In this episode, Jenni Kahmeyer, a licensed mental health counselor and writer for The Truly Co, speaks on the necessity of self-care and the topic of mental health. Self-care is really about self-compassion and treating ourselves well.
She explores the history of mental health issues in the church and some of the church’s negative responses to mental illness. Jenni teaches us how the church can view mental health challenges as an aftermath of the Fall of man. Just as with physical healing, God provides mental healing through miracles, but He also uses doctors, counselors, and other professionals to help others.
Jenni encourages us to recognize the value of living and serving from a place of abundance and rest and describes strategies to help us understand what that means for ourselves.
