Study, Pray & Meditate on Scriptures
Today’s Task Reading:
When we are experiencing a difficult time, the right thing to do is go to God’s word. There are five ways we can use God’s word to deal with the stresses of life: We can hear it, read it, study it, memorize it, and meditate on it.
Hearing scriptures builds up our faith (Romans 10:17). Unfortunately, we all have the challenge of overcoming selective hearing. If we don’t care for the message we are hearing, we tend to ignore it. If we like the message we are hearing, we tend to receive it. Nevertheless, if we are God’s followers, we will know His voice and follow it (John 10:27). Yet, we need to be careful and avoid speaking words of doubt and unbelief because it prevents God’s from operating in our lives (Matthew 13:58).

Homeopathy
Today’s Task Reading:
Welcome to week 12!
This week we will focus on ways we can de-stress.
Sometimes after traumatic and stressful events, it is hard to recover. We can choose to treat the fear, anxiety, panic attacks with natural homeopathic remedies, also known as homeopathy. The goal of homeopathy is to observe symptoms and choose a remedy that closely mimics the symptom. Then give the remedy at right potency and dilute the treatment one dose at a time. We can practice homeopathic remedies ourselves, but a trained professional homeopath can better develop a customized treatment for us and carefully observes the symptoms to make sure we are getting better. If after three doses, there are no changes, then the homeopathic professional will chose another remedy that better matches the symptom.
Here are some natural remedies that can help us de-stress, and according to betternutrition.com dosages from 30c, 200c to 1M can be taken daily or weekly, depending on the severity and...
