Practicing Presence is the first adult coloring book in a series. It is a mindfulness tool focusing on the healing aspect of the Gospel message. It starts by looking at the word shalom, translated in today’s terms as wholeness. What a beautiful aspect of the Gospel that Jesus has come to heal us and make us whole! We live in an age where faith and neuroscience are intersecting. The more trauma informed we become, the more we understand the relationship between unresolved emotional pain and trauma-related illnesses such as fibromyalgia, and other auto-immune conditions. Thankfully, Jesus knows how to heal us from the inside out, and truly set us free. If you are one who suffers with chronic stress related illness, I hope this small mindfulness tool is a blessing to you. I know from first-hand experience that Jesus heals and restores.
