046 - Breathe (with Bonnie Gray)

Hello, friends! Get out your notebooks and pens, because you’ll definitely want to take notes on this very special episode of The Bettys Podcast. Today we are joined by author Bonnie Gray to talk about her book Breathe: 21 Ways to Stress Less and Transform Chaos to Calm. Bonnie Gray is a Soul Care mentor and coach, and the author of several other books: Whispers of Rest, Finding Spiritual Whitespace and Sweet Like Jasmine, an ECPA 2022 Christian Book Award Finalist. Having healed from PTSD, Bonnie is passionate about helping thousands of listeners detox stress and flourish in emotional wellness with God’s love through soul care, Bible Study and prayer. Bonnie is a trusted voice writing for Proverbs 31, Christianity Today and Relevant Magazine. She is also the host of Breathe: The Stress Less Podcast. She loves hiking and eating waffles with her husband and two teenage boys in Silicon Valley.

 

We encourage you to take Bonnie’s Soul Care Quiz to learn which area of wellness you’re missing at SoulCareQuiz.com. For both Mary and Lexy, it seems to be spirituality, and Bonnie helps us look for more ways we can connect with Jesus by making time for things that bring us joy and peace, giving “feet to our faith.” Bonnie says that “soul care” sounds selfish on the surface, but it’s necessary for us.  She shows us how to do “breath prayers” and opens up scriptures like 1 Peter 5:7: “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”

 

We didn’t have a Better Betty Challenge for today, but we hope you will support Bonnie’s incredible and refreshing work by purchasing her book and listening to her podcast. You can find her beautiful book here on Amazon, and it is available as an audiobook as well, narrated by the author.
