Slow Down to Heal and Truly Live

About the Book

After several years working in the holistic health field, author Patricia McNamara discovered a crucial missing piece to the healing puzzle. As a nutritional therapy practitioner, she witnessed firsthand the devastating impact of the fast-paced world and cultural expectations on health, which were amplified by her own personal health challenges. Through these experiences, God revealed that to fully heal and truly live up to our God-given potential, we must slow down and embrace the Bible-backed practices shared in Slow Down to Heal and Truly Live. McNamara draws inspiration from Jesus, who demonstrated the importance of stepping away from constant demands to rest, pray, and reconnect with God. While his purpose was unique, Jesus' example speaks to women today, who often face intense pressures to balance work, family, and personal life amidst societal expectations to "have and be it all." These pressures can lead to burnout and illness, underscoring the need to slow down and prioritize well-being. This devotional combines Biblical insight with twenty-one lifestyle practices designed to nurture your mind, body, and spirit, helping you prevent burnout and foster long-term health. With practical tips, reflection prompts, and action steps, you’ll be motivated to make meaningful changes. You’ll feel better, enjoy life more, and be better equipped to serve the Lord and fulfill your purpose.
