Review: This is probably one of the most beautiful and timely books that has ever come into my life. I have had some mental health struggles most of my adult life and this has given me such an abundance of tools to help me get through the difficult times. I took 4 pages of notes and could have taken more if my hand had not started hurting.
I love how all of the prayers are rooted in scripture, she is sharing the gospel and the more people who read it the better!
The author does a beautiful job of mixing the science of anxiety with the gospel of scripture. She presents a mixed and grounded view of how to add breath prayer into your life and not just wen things are going right. There are practical ways of how we can implement this into our lives.
