Truly healthy people don’t strive to become the best version of themselves.

Truly healthy people do strive to become a more accurate representation of Jesus.

3 tips to help you sleep well:

1. Prime your environment – keep it cool, dark & quiet

2. Minimize the disruptors – caffeine, work, blue lights, alcohol, naps, emails, video games; anything that disrupts your natural sleep cycle

3. Have a routine – aim to do the same thing before bed every night

The True Health Paradox entails the following:

Living in "should" without living in shame

There are many "shoulds" in health: we "should" eat clean, we "should" spend time with Jesus, we "should" move daily, we "should" pray for orphans & widows, etc.

But what do you do when you don't do what you should do?

You don't allow shame into the equation.

Because God's grace fills the gaps.

We still strive to hit the "shoulds" everyday. Jesus raised the bar high for His followers. But we never allow the enemy to infiltrate shame into our souls.

Instead, we abide in God's grace.
