What if the exhaustion you’re feeling isn’t because you’re doing life wrong—but because you’ve been carrying too much internally for too long?
In this episode of Default to Yes, we explore the idea of spiritual hygiene—the daily, gentle practice of caring for your inner life with the same intention you bring to your work as a nurse.
For nurses and healthcare professionals, peace is often outsourced to circumstances: the schedule, the unit, the next day off, or the next season of life. But true regulation doesn’t come from outside control—it comes from inner authority, presence, and nervous system safety.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why nurses often feel depleted even when life looks “manageable”
- How fear, shame, and unprocessed emotional residue quietly tax the nervous system
- What spiritual hygiene looks like as a daily practice, not a belief system
- Why presence regulates more effectively than pushing, fixing, or forcing
- A simple, nurse-friendly practice to restore steadiness and clarity
- How scripture supports inner regulation and peace without bypassing reality
This is a conversation about cleaning from the inside out.
About learning to tend to your inner world with honesty and care.
And about remembering that peace is not something to outsource—it’s something to practice.
