Rascal Flatts sings a country music song dealing with conflicting emotional experiences of a curve, and learning to swerve. What is the current economy’s effect on mental health? This survey was done with the economy was better, it is just multiplied now: 18% Focus on living today, 16% reprioritized time spent at work, 11% No real effect and 55% Increased overall stress and insecurity about the future.

EXPLORE THE WONDER OF YOUR DESIGN
“My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my saying. Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart; for they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh. Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it springs the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:20-23
You are designed with a Body= flesh, physical, Soul=mind, emotion, will, and a Spirit=heart, place where you can know God. You are made to live from the inside out.
EXAMINE THE IMPORTANCE OF “SOUL” CARE
Feelings are controlled by your thoughts.
“For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.” Proverbs 23:7
Feelings are not a good judge of whether life is good or not.
“Emotional experience in the western world has become the primary motivation of values, actions and spiritual beliefs.” Dr. James Dobson
Feelings have a great impact on your body.
“The mind, body and soul are close neighbors—one usually catches the ills of another.”
If you change your thoughts, your feelings follow.
“Exalt her (wisdom), and she will promote you; she will bring you honor, when you embrace her.” Proverbs 4:8
HOW TO EXPAND YOUR “SWERVABILITY”

Discipline: Read, Recreate, and have healthy Relationships
