Feelings and thoughts are energy that affect the body and vice versa.
When confronted with difficult emotions, most people employ maladaptive ways for coping with undesirable feelings, such as self-medicating or denial.
Although maladaptive coping mechanisms offer relief in the moment, they lead to illness; they do not facilitate the long-term improvement of addressing the actual source of discomfort. What if, instead, we leaned into these unpleasant feelings as messages between our bodies and our spirits?
Allowing undesirable emotions to exist, rather than banishing or denying them, prevents them from accumulating in the body. They are allowed to flow through us harmlessly. The body becomes “full of light” (Matt 6:22-23). Here’s how love heals the mind and body.

L | Listen (Receive the Word via audio or video.)
O | Observe (Connect the passage to your life and recent events.)
Think back to your most recent pop quiz, and allow yourself to re-feel the undesirable emotions, think the dark thoughts, and entertain the ugly judgments. Notice in your body where you feel increasing or decreasing activity. What do you feel in your body as you re-remember your pop quiz? Do you have reoccurring physical issues in these areas?
Turn your attention to an area in your body where you do have reoccurring issues. Ask the symptom what it might be trying to tell you.
V | Verbalize (Pray about your thoughts and emotions.)
Remembering that He loves you and that you are in His presence, talk to God about the particulars of your O – Observe step. You may want to write your reflections in your LOVE the Word® journal. Or, get a free journal page and guide in the right-hand margin.
E | Entrust (Rest in the Word.)
Dearest Jesus, illumine my eye, speak to my ear, that I may see and hear You word, and be healed. Amen +
