In this season, is the possibility of having an hour long quiet time with Jesus just a wishful dream?  How about 10 minutes?  What do you do in a situation where you have zero time for your self care and zero time to carve out to spend with Jesus?

 

In this episode, we’re going to look at the routines we do already and find a way to repurpose that time to carve out self care time in the middle of all the Christmas rush.

 

As winter break approaches, busy families can feel stretched thin. One Christmas marked by illness reminded me that God sometimes brings rest through unexpected, low-key seasons. Instead of adding more to an already full schedule, I encourage you to find low-hanging fruit in daily routines—turning mindless moments into sacred ones. Listen to Scripture during car rides, pray while brushing your teeth, or practice gratitude while washing your face can all nourish the soul. This kind of self-care supports stress management, time management, and faith—alongside caring for the body through eating well, Mediterranean diet recipes, and strength training.
