Description

When your mind is racing and cravings rise, peace can feel far away — but what if peace could meet you right there in the craving? 

In this episode, Catholic sobriety coach Christie Walker unpacks what’s really happening in your brain and body during moments of restlessness and temptation — and how to plan for peace instead of panic using her P.R.A.Y.S. Method.

You’ll learn how to invite Christ into the craving, regulate your nervous system with grace, and prepare your heart before the hard moment ever arrives.

In this episode:

  • Why peace feels distant when you’re overwhelmed
  • The neuroscience of cravings and “limbic takeover”
  • How to turn temptation into a sacred invitation
  • Step-by-step through the P.R.A.Y.S. Method
  • How to plan for peace through grace, not perfection


 Peace isn’t something you earn after the craving passes — it’s something you can create with Christ, right in the middle of it.
