To the Christian mom with anxiety:   You’ve been told to pray harder. You’ve been told there’s nothing to be afraid of as long as you believe in Him and live a life full of faith.   God tells us in Philippians 4:6-7: “Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand."   There is absolutely truth and comfort there, But what happens when that doesn't automatically cure us? Does that mean we are sinning?   We live in broken bodies that inevitably fail us, and we live in a broken world that adds to all of the worry. There are also many women who live with a chemical imbalance in their brain, causing or adding to the anxiety.    In this episode, we dive into the ways we can break free from those thoughts that hold us captive, and replace our anxious thoughts with truths from above.   I pray this brings you rest, and remember…you matter too, mama!   Join the Facebook community! https://www.facebook.com/groups/mamamatterstoo/   Get the FREE sleep guide to conquer your nights (and anxiety!): https://view.flodesk.com/pages/64daa68c8457bad1915890c5   Book a free discovery call with me to learn how I can help you find rest again: https://calendly.com/mamamatterstoo/free-15-minute-consultation

I want to talk about kind of a hot topic today, which is if no cry sleep training methods exist and if they work. Spoiler alert…they do!....kinda. Like most things in life, there are pros and cons to any method we use to get your baby or toddler sleeping!   Backed by experience and my own research, schooling, and scientific studies done, I approach this episode from a place of complete love and just wanting to help you and your family get sleep again in a way that works best for you.   Please remember that YOUR mental health and sleep matters, and your baby also needs sleep in order to thrive and grow! Which is why I approach sleep training by looking at the whole picture, and we use a method that feels most comfortable to you.   I pray this brings you peace and rest no matter how you choose to get your baby (and you!) some sleep, and remember…you matter too, mama!   Get the FREE sleep guide to conquer your nights (and anxiety!): https://view.flodesk.com/pages/64daa68c8457bad1915890c5   Join the Facebook community! https://www.facebook.com/groups/mamamatterstoo/ Book a free discovery call with me to learn how I can help you find rest again: https://calendly.com/mamamatterstoo/free-15-minute-consultation
