It’s ironical and also hilarious how God will — every single week — put me in situations that test the exact characteristic that we discuss over in our podcast at Be Still Be Free.

Like the week we talked about honesty, and I had come face-to-face with some ugliness in my heart.

And the week we discussed contentment and all the holiday catalogs showed up and I wanted everything n-e-w.

And today — today we’re discussing what it means to BE emotionally healthy — and how just because you feel something doesn’t make it true; how we need to sit with our emotions and feelings and not immediately react to them.

Ouch.

Because something happened just today that made me want to tweet something really passively-aggressively snarky in an attempt to snub someone who doesn’t even know I know something.

(I just wore myself out writing that, I’m so sorry you had to read it.)

My emotions got the best of me and I just wanted to react, you know??

So I need this week’s podcast probably more than anyone else.

But you’ll definitely get something out of it, too. I promise.

Hop on over to Be Still Be Free and listen to the episode. My good friend Tracy Hurst is a guest on the show today, and she’s a licensed professional counselor, author, speaker, and all-around awesome friend. She knows what she’s talking about, y’all!

You are going to be wrecked in the best possible way!

p.s. We have opened up a shop at BE! Buy yourself and your friends some really cool BE stuff for Christmas — phone cases, iPad cases, mugs, throw pillows, hoodies and more! You’ll love it!
