Mentally Calm, Spiritually Connected: The Interdependence of Mind and Spirit

For centuries, faithful Christians have mistakenly believed that an individual's mental side is separate from his or her spiritual side. Recently, with the prevalence of depression and anxiety in our latter-day generations, we are learning that our spirituality must be built on a foundation of mental well-being. On the premise that understanding promotes healing, this book defines the mental and spiritual sides of humankind and how the two affect one another. By studying this book, you will come to know: the basics of brain chemistry, sensory addictions, and drugs; the heart metaphor of the scriptures; that in decision making, the Holy Ghost is just one voice of many; the need for neuroplasticity in repentance; the difference between consciousness and conscience; the definition of both soul and spirit; the ins and outs of worry, anxiety, and depression; the use of meditation and mindedness. Part of spiritual worship should include giving time and attention to your mental well-being. Mentally Calm, Spiritually Connected will help you secure a spiritual and mental connection by offering frank guidance on how to calm your mind and elevate your thoughts.
