    Emotions are not the enemy

    In this podcast episode, I am sharing information about emotions. There's such a huge stigma about feelings. I want you to know emotions are not the enemy. The devil is our enemy, not our emotions. Emotions are like tools. You use them to fix what is bothering you. In order to fix it, you do have to face it, sit in it, reflect, process it, and talk about it. This is exactly how you guard your heart on a daily basis. Our emotions are what make us who we are: human. And who created us. God. "For everything created by God is good" 1 Timothy 4:4a Check out our website for therapy t-shirts at www.acclimatedtotherapy.comWe are raising money to provide free therapy sessions for those who can't afford it.

The definition of condoning is "to accept and allow (behavior that is considered morally wrong or offensive) to continue." Just because you decide to forgive, it doesn't mean you condone others to continue to mistreat or abuse you. This is where setting boundaries will have to place so others will know the actions you will or won't allow.Check out our website for affirmation cards & coffee mugs at www.acclimatedtotherapy.comYou can learn more information about forgiveness at www.therapistaid.comThank you for listening to the Mental Health Bible Study Podcast.Support the show (https://www.issuesoflife.me/donate)

    Forgiveness is not getting even

    The affirmation for today is FORGIVENESS IS NOT GETTING EVEN OR SEEKING REVENGE. Seeking revenge or getting even with those who hurt you won't solve anything. It won't help get rid of the emotional pain. The pain will still be there after you have sought revenge. We have the capability to forgive, but it is your choice at the end of the day. Whether you will let your emotions overtake you or you overcome your emotions. Check out our website for affirmation cards & coffee mugs at www.acclimatedtotherapy.comYou can learn more information about forgiveness at www.therapistaid.comThank you for listening to the Mental Health Bible Study Podcast.Support the show (https://www.issuesoflife.me/donate)

    The affirmation for today is FORGIVENESS IS NOT PRETENDING OR FORGETTING. We have the capability to repress our thoughts and put events in the subconscious level of the mind. But the body won't ever forget. Our bodies keep memories like elephants. We can be emotionally triggered by something we hear, taste, see, feel, and smell.  That very thing will take us all the way back to where we were violated or offended. "Keep your heart diligently, for out of it flows the issues of life." Proverbs 4:23 Check out our website for affirmation cards & coffee mugs at www.acclimatedtotherapy.comYou can more information about forgiveness at www.therapistaid.comThank you for listening to the Mental Health Bible Study Podcast.Support the show (https://www.issuesoflife.me/donate)

    The affirmation for today is FORGIVENESS IS NOT RECONCILIATION. Especially when you know the relationship is a toxic one. You can say, "girl, bye" or "boy, bye" and really meant it. You can love them from a distance. Everybody is not meant to be your friend or spouse. Know the people who you allow in your inner circle. Know yourself well enough to know what you refuse to tolerate from others. Just because you decide to forgive, it does not mean you have to continue the relationship. Check out our website for affirmation cards & coffee mugs at www.acclimatedtotherapy.comYou can learn more information about forgiveness at www.therapistaid.comThank you for listening to the Mental Health Bible Study Podcast.Support the show (https://www.issuesoflife.me/donate)

    The affirmation for today is FORGIVENESS IS A PROCESS, NOT A COMPETITION. Just in case someone may be wondering, what does forgiveness have to do with mental health? An unforgiving heart can be destructive to your mental and emotional health as well as your spiritual and physical health. Forgiveness is not only about making sure you forgive others so God can forgive you. It's deeper than that and it is all mental. Let's keep it real, there are offenses that society considers unforgivable. How can we forgive others who commit an unforgivable act against us? That's a good question and it will be answered.

    The self-love affirmation for today is I CHOOSE TO RELEASE ALL MY PAST TRAUMA AND EMOTIONAL PAIN INTO THE SEA OF FORGIVENESS. Take notice that I didn't say forgetfulness. There's only one true God who does that, forget the wrongs that people commit. We, as human beings, do not have the power to forget unless you are the Almighty God. Your body doesn't forget offenses and violations that people commit against it. But we do have the power to forgive, and it begins with a decision. And only then, the course of action begins with forgiveness which is a process for the person who has been offended and/or violated.For the month of March, I will be podcasting about what forgiveness is not, what it is, and how to forgive offenses and violations that are absolutely hard to forgive.
