Welcome to the Radiant in Real Life Podcast, where we dive into topics related to life, leadership, and the pursuit of Jesus.

In Episode 58, we talked about:
How chronic stress can show up physically in our bodies through symptoms like stomach issues, brain fog, and sleep struggles.
Understanding the four stress responses (Fight, Flight, Freeze, and Fawn) and how they manifest in our daily lives.
Why shame often accompanies stress responses and how identifying these patterns can help remove the shame.
The impact of stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline—designed to help us in short-term danger but harmful when experienced long-term.
Practical strategies for managing stress, including:
Somatic practices like breathwork, muscle relaxation, and cold exposure to regulate the nervous system.
The power of movement—especially walking in nature—for releasing stored trauma and improving mental clarity.
Using worship as a somatic trauma healing tool, inviting peace and calm into your body through intentional connection with God.
Visualization exercises that involve handing your stress over to Jesus, a practice Beth has guided many clients through with transformative results.
A powerful reminder that rest is a spiritual discipline—Sabbath isn’t just encouraged, it’s commanded by God because it’s vital for our well-being.
