Holy Care for the Whole Self

Jesus loves your whole self--body, mind, and soul. He cares so deeply about you that of course, Jesus cares about your mental health. Learn how to have a healthy mind and spirit with a biblical approach.

Whether you're carrying emotional wounds from childhood or suffering from daily anxiety, depression, or intrusive thoughts, none of these are God's intention for you. He lovingly knit you together in your mother's womb and calls you to a life of abundance. He offers healing and freedom from these feelings of despair, and Laura L. Smith is here to help you receive them.

Join Laura as she guides you through tangible tools like prayer, health-care resources, exercise, Bible memorization, setting boundaries, breathing exercises, gratitude, counseling, and so much more. Experience the rest and restoration our God has to offer.
