Rachel Logan: I want you to let me know how you are feeling today using an emoji. It is an honor and a privilege to be with you today. Come on in.
Every Wednesday at 11:00 a. m. in the new day, we are always going to get to the roots. Let me know how you are feeling today by dropping an emoji.
Get to the root with Rachel Logan, the definition of things. root means the basic cause, the source, or the origin of something. And the way we get to the source is if we simply acknowledge what we are feeling. The more we understand, the more clarity we have.
You have to hold every thought captive. Next, I want you to check in with your body. Your body is your alarm system. Don't ignore your thoughts. They are telling you something. I love all of your feedback, so keep it coming.
Last thing I want you to do is check in with your spirit. Your spirit is the very core and the essence of who you are. Get to the root today of your mind, body and spirit. Meditate on things that are pure, lovely, upworthy, praiseworthy.

I am in the midwest, and I'm going to tell you today, I am excited.

Come on in, everyone. Well, let's dive in. Okay, let me see. Somebody say they feel strong. Yes, strong. I'm excited. Someone feels strong. Someone looks like they feel loved. I love it. Come on in. So getting to the root, I want to give you a definition because this is the thing you will always know here. And get to the root with Rachel Logan, the definition of things. The more we understand, the more clarity we have, the more power we will have. Okay, so why are we getting to the root? This is the premises of all that we will talk about on this channel here.
Well, root means the basic cause, the source, or the origin of something. Okay? So today, I want you to get to the root of your emotions. And the way we get to get to the source is if we simply acknowledge what we are feeling. So in this day, some people are saying they are excited. Some people are expressing they feel strong. Another person look like they feel loved. I feel excited today. Well, I want you to figure out where's the source of this? Where is this coming from? Because, listen, people come to counseling because their thoughts are, are scattered.
They're coming to counseling because their emotions are all over the place or they are waking up feeling tired. Lethargic or achy, and they're like, where is this coming from? Well, listen, you have the power and the ability to know the source of things, okay? We are trying, people. We have a mind. We have a body. We have a soul. Some people say mind, spirit, body. However you look at it, you are multi dimensional. You are not just linear. There's not one level to you. You are complex. And so you have to look at.
Okay, if I'm complex and there's so many levels and things to me, well, listen, I need to understand who I am and how I'm feeling and the reason why I feel these things. Not because I'm tripping or I'm crazy. No, you have to understand the source of things, okay? You have to understand the region, the origin of what is happening in you and around you. So let's think of ourselves as three parts, right? I have my notes here because this is how we enroll and get to the root of Rachel. Logan. We first have to check our mind, right?
A lot of people are coming to counseling because their thoughts are ruminating. They have invasive thoughts, thoughts that's not even their own. And they are wondering how my thoughts. And why are my thoughts impacting my day today? Well, listen, you have to hold every thought captive. I'm gonna say that again. You have to hold every thought captive. Thoughts come up against us, in us, around us, all the time. That means we cannot let every thought that pops up in our mind be the thing that we constantly ruminate on.
If it's not good, if it's not pure, if it's not holy, why are we holding on to thoughts? Come on. Drop me your heart. Drop me an emoji. Every thought needs to be captive. Okay? If the thought is harming you or causing you to feel depressed, why are you thinking it? Where is it coming from? Is it your thoughts? Is it somebody else's thoughts? I want you to examine your thought. Life. You cannot allow every thought to rule and have dominion and dominate you. No. Where's the source? What is the source?
Where's the thought originating from? Hold every thought captive. Next, I want you to check in with your body. Your body is your alarm system. Your emotions that is in your body are your alarms system. They let you know if something's good. And if something is off, what is your body telling you in this very moment? Check in. Do you have any aches? Are you tense in some parts of your body? Are you feeling stable? Do you feel off today? Is there something. Is your heart beating more rapidly than normal.
Check in. Your body tells you if you're good, if you're off, if you're stable or unstable, if you're energetic or tired. Listen to your body. Don't ignore your body. Don't ignore your thoughts. Listen to them. They are telling you something. Get to the root of your aches. Get to the root of your energy. Check in. I love all of your feedback, so keep it coming. Okay? So last thing I want you to do is check in with your spirit. Your spirit is the very core and the essence of who you are. I'm going to disclose here.
I'm a Christian. I believe in Jesus. So on this channel, you're going to get a mixture of therapy and faith, okay? You're going to get a mixture of therapy, evidence based practices and faith. So christian principles, those two things together, y'all, it's an explosion of healing, transformation, deliverance, power, all the above, okay? So check in with your spirit. If something is off, you need to go pray. If something is good, go pray. If you feeling elevated, I'm on cloud nine. Go pray. If something is causing you to feel anxious, if you feel like your spirit is unsettled, go pray.
Go worship. Go read some scriptures. Go play some music that is edifying and soothing to you. Go pray. So I'm going to tie this all up as we are wrapping it up today. You are amazing. You are complex. You are triune. You are multidimensional. So therefore, you have a responsibility. You have to check in. You have to understand that your mind, body and spirit needs attention. And the way you do that is just what we did at the beginning of this hour. We say, hey, I feel like. And we picked an emoji.
My energy level is like, is it high or low? We checked in with our spirit. Is it at peace? Or is it like kind of unstable and worried and anxious or unsettled? So I want you to pause. I want you to check in and listen to the three major parts of you. By getting to the root, I'm going to leave you with a scripture. I'm going to always leave you with the word, okay, and the word for you today, as you're getting to the root of your emotions. It's come from Philippians four and eight. I read it from the Bible, Niv.
It says, finally, brothers and sister, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things. I say it again, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, admirable, excellent or praiseworthy. Think, meditate, ruminate on those things, all right? So get to the root today of your mind, your body and your spirit. Remember to ruminate, think on. Meditate on things that are pure, lovely, upworthy, praiseworthy.
That are good. And get to the root throughout the day. All right, lovely people. It's been great. Thank you for chiming in. I will see you next Wednesday as we get to the root of something else. Something else that's going to be juicy and uplifting. Take care. Peace out.
