And 49 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 2: we'll be right back for our scripture. This week, we 50 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: are looking to a beautiful prayer in First Samuel three p. 51 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: Nine Speak Lord, for your servant is listening. Let's breathe 52 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 2: in this beautiful prayer as our breath prayer, use a 53 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 2: natural breathing for our body to just slow our bodies 54 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 2: down and activate the rest response. So I like to 55 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 2: adjust the word servant to saying your beloved is listening 56 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 2: or your daughter is listening. So let's go ahead and 57 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 2: just relax, relax your shoulders, relax your hands, and just inhale, 58 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 2: speak Lord, exhale, for I am listening. Again, inhale, speak. 59 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 3: Lord, exhale, your beloved is listening, and just allow yourself 60 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 3: to receive the care that God has for you in 61 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 3: this moment, as. 62 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 2: Jesus is right besides you. Well. I went in for 63 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: my teeth cleaning last week and my regular hygienist had 64 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 2: just returned, had been gone for about nine months on 65 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 2: a personal familyle is. I was so happy to see her, 66 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 2: But what surprised me even more was the first thing 67 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 2: she said to me. She said, Wow, your skin looks great. 68 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 2: What have you been doing? And I was so happy 69 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 2: because honestly, I've been making small changes since the new year. 70 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 2: They're not big changes, and I've even wondered if it's 71 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 2: made a difference, because the people that I see every 72 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 2: day in my life, maybe they don't see those changes right, 73 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 2: They don't notice it, But someone who hasn't seen a 74 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 2: while they can. And so it reminded me that little 75 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 2: changes we make do matter, and they do add up. 76 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 2: They improve our well being, They improve our physical health, 77 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: our spiritual health, and we may not see it as 78 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 2: those changes happen very slowly over time, but they've meant 79 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 2: so much to me because a couple of years ago, 80 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 2: I actually lost a large patch of hair on that 81 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 2: top of my head. It was a bald spot. I 82 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 2: lost that hair from stress. I was skipping meals, I 83 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 2: had developed some unhealthy habits during the hard season, and 84 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: hair loss was the way my body was letting me 85 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 2: know that I wasn't taking care of my physical wellness, 86 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 2: and of course it affects my emotional wellness, right, It's 87 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 2: all interrelated, and so it was a wake up call. 88 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 2: I started making some small changes to take care of 89 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 2: my body again, and interestingly, as I cared for my health, 90 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 2: my skin improved too. And that's why I wanted to 91 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 2: share with you today, friend, these three morning routines that 92 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 2: I started, because maybe you're wondering where do I even begin. 93 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:54,479 Speaker 2: As you are looking at your wellness, whether it's physical, emotional, spiritual, 94 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 2: or social, you begin small, and that's part of caring 95 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 2: for yourself is learning how to create space for God. 96 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 2: And listening to God is not just about being passive. 97 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 2: It's about making space for Him and for me. These 98 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 2: small morning rhythms has become a way of doing that, 99 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 2: and I want to encourage you. How is God inviting 100 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 2: you to create space in the morning. These routines I'm 101 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 2: talking about that I've added they're not helping me to 102 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 2: not rush into emails, not jumping straight into my responsibilities, 103 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 2: taking care of others, or getting things done, but slowing down, 104 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 2: creating space to sit with a warm cup of water, 105 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 2: and as I do sipping it, to cast my cares 106 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 2: on Jesus, to tell him what's on my heart. To 107 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 2: make something simple to eat, like a scrambled egg or 108 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 2: yogurt with fruit. And as I would eat this little breakfast, 109 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 2: I would look out the window, notice the trees, the sky, 110 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 2: the rain, and you can see the little details every day. 111 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 2: The sun may be glimmering, or the rain drops on 112 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 2: the window pane, and listening to a hymn. As I 113 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 2: brush my teeth, I would start playing some hymns. These 114 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 2: are just some small things, but they create a space 115 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 2: where we can take small steps to rest and listen 116 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 2: as our day begins with God and to experience something different, 117 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 2: not pressure, not striving, but peace. And those small little 118 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 2: movements can shape our day because we start the day 119 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 2: with God, and we start the day doing something that 120 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 2: is good for you, your wellness, to fill your tank 121 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 2: up before we pour out for others. And when we 122 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 2: come right back. We want to talk about the science 123 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 2: because that really always helps us when we know that 124 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: the way God created our bodies need certain elements. Certain 125 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 2: ingredients can really motivate us to say, yes, this is 126 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 2: how God created me to prioritize my wellness, and we'll 127 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: be right back well friend. There is growing research that 128 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 2: shows us our morning routines have a powerful impact on 129 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 2: our long term health and well being. Studies show us 130 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: that morning habits can help regulate our bodies rhythm. It's 131 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 2: called the circadian rhythm, and it affects everything from hormone balance, 132 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 2: to metabolism, to energy levels, and even for our sleep. 133 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 2: It's interesting how the morning affects the rest of our day, 134 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 2: affects our wellness, our thoughts, our body, our hormones, and 135 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 2: even how we're able to rest later that night. And 136 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 2: experts describe it like setting the direction of a ship. 137 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: When you start your day in the right direction, it's 138 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 2: much easier to stay on course. And we also can 139 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 2: notice when we've kind of gone off course right. So 140 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 2: our small actions like hydration, nourishment, and being mindful of 141 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 2: our wellness. These three things, hydration, nourishment, being mindful of 142 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 2: how we're doing and feeling. These three things can help 143 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 2: improve our physical health and our emotional balance over time, 144 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 2: as well as our faith. As people of faith, we 145 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 2: want to be able to add faith into each of 146 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 2: these areas of our wellness. I read this article, I'll 147 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 2: include it in our show notes. It's such a surprise. 148 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 2: On average, water makes up sixty percent of our human body. 149 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 2: And guess what our lungs are made of eighty three 150 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 2: percent water, and even your bones are thirty one percent. 151 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 2: And so when we are sleeping our body with those 152 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 2: hours we're not drinking water, our body wakes up dehydrated 153 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 2: and it can even affect our cortisol levels, which is 154 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 2: our stress levels. So for those of us who want 155 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 2: to keep our stress levels low, it's really important to 156 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 2: start the day with that glass of water. So starting 157 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,599 Speaker 2: with a lower quartisol level. 158 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: No wonder. 159 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 2: Jesus tells us, I am the living water. How powerful 160 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: is that truth? We need Jesus every day in all 161 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: areas of our life. The beautiful part is keeping hydrated 162 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 2: is one of three morning routines, very simple I'd like 163 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 2: you to try this week. It's part of your soul 164 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 2: care challenge. This week. I have three for you. And 165 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 2: the great thing is that the benefits of these morning 166 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 2: routines it'll come from big changes, but from small actions 167 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 2: you can take. First is hydrate. First thing in the morning. 168 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 2: Drink a warm cup of water in the morning. Research 169 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 2: shows that even mild dehydration can affect your mood, energy, 170 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 2: and focus, and hydration supports your metabolism, your digestion, and 171 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 2: your nervous system function. In fact, studies suggest that proper 172 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 2: hydration can improve your emotional balance by up to twenty 173 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 2: six percent. So before a coffee, before anything else, start 174 00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 2: with water and see how your body responds. The second 175 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 2: morning routine I'd like you to try is to nourish 176 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 2: your body with simple protein. I like to scramble an 177 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 2: egg or have a cup of yogurt. Nutrition experts note 178 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 2: that a protein rich breakfast helps stabilize your blood sugar, 179 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 2: which directly impacts your energy level, your mood, and your 180 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: ability to focus throughout the day. And it's an easy 181 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 2: way to improve your overall dietary quality because breakfasts can 182 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 2: account up to twenty percent of our daily nutrition. I 183 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 2: like to throw some berries on there, and then I 184 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 2: get some antioxigens and fruits, which has been great for 185 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,559 Speaker 2: my skin. So something small makes the difference. The third 186 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 2: morning routine that has made a difference for me, and 187 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 2: we'll make a difference for all of us is to 188 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 2: have a quiet moment to just listen. Many people use 189 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 2: the word mindfulness nowadays, but ass we just want to 190 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 2: create space to listen to God, hear his voice. What 191 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 2: I do when I first get up, before I actually 192 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 2: start to do a thing, I'll lay on my bed 193 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 2: and I'll just whisper, speak, Lord, I'm listening, And that's 194 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 2: our breath prayer. Just to pause. It's so easy to 195 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 2: just grab our phone or just pop up and start moving, 196 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 2: but just to lay there for a minute and whisper aloud, 197 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 2: speak Lord, your daughter is listening. Studies show that being 198 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 2: mindful and practicing prayer reduce the stress. It improves our 199 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 2: emotional regulation and it will protect our body from always 200 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 2: going into chronic stress mode. And when we pair that 201 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 2: with something simple like listening to Him, that's what I do. 202 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 2: As I brush my teeth, I'll just put on a 203 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 2: hymn that I love, and it just makes it so 204 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 2: much better to meditate on God's loving presence. It helps 205 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 2: our nervous systems settle. It'll help your nervous systems settle 206 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 2: before the day begins. So, out of these three, which 207 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 2: one do you want to try? If you're feeling really motivated. 208 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 2: You can try two or maybe three. But what ideas 209 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 2: has this sparked in you? Which one do you feel 210 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 2: drawn to try? Hydrate first thing in the morning with 211 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 2: a warm cup of water, Second, nourish your body with 212 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 2: simple protein. Or third, just take a moment to listen 213 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 2: to God, to whisper a prayer, or to listen to 214 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 2: a worship song or him. These are just small things, 215 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 2: but they matter and they will set the direction of 216 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 2: your day, like setting the course of a ship. If 217 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 2: you want to explore more ideas, I included a link 218 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 2: in the show notes from an article that is called 219 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 2: nine habits that will help you live to one hundred 220 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 2: according to longevity experts.

Lord, 225 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 2: help us to create that space to listen, to receive 226 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 2: your peace, and to take better care of ourselves in 227 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 2: a simple, gentle way.
