Last week we talked about how easy it is to lose ourselves by carrying responsibilities God never asked us to carry. But what happens after we recognize those unhealthy patterns?

In this Midweek Reset, Lori explores how years of people-pleasing, over-functioning, and trying to manage everyone else's emotions can leave us living in "survival mode." She shares practical ways to begin slowing down, trusting God, and helping our minds and bodies experience the rest Jesus offers.

If you've ever felt like your body can't relax—even when life finally slows down—this episode will encourage you to exchange striving for trust and exhaustion for God's peace.

• Why our bodies can stay in "survival mode"
• How people-pleasing affects both our minds and our bodies
• The connection between boundaries and peace
• Why Jesus modeled rest for His followers
• Three practical ways to begin experiencing God's peace again
• Learning to replace control with trust

1. Where in my life have I confused loving someone with carrying responsibilities that belong to them?
2. Have I slowly abandoned my own relationship with God, health, or calling while trying to take care of everyone else?
3. This week, what burden do I need to hand back to God instead of continuing to carry it myself?
