011 | Spiritual Habits for Moms Who Feel Overwhelmed
from Refining Our Focus in Motherhood | Filling homes with faith, whole health, heart-centered learning · host Nikki and Staci
If you’ve been feeling spiritually stretched thin in the middle of motherhood, this episode is a gentle reset. Today we’re refining our focus on the small, steady spiritual habits that help us feel less overwhelmed and more anchored in peace. Building on our recent conversation about raising children to know God in a world that’s forgetting Him, we turn the lens inward and ask an honest question: how do we guide our children toward Him when we ourselves feel weary? Rooted in Gospel of Matthew 11:28 which says, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” this episode is an invitation to lay down spiritual pressure and rediscover spiritual rest. We talk candidly about: What spiritual overwhelm can look like in everyday motherhood Moments of connection with God in ordinary, even chaotic, days Practical ways to seek Him without adding more to your to-do list Spiritual faithfulness vs. spiritual productivity — and why God is after our hearts, not our checklists We also share personal reflections, including a meaningful experience studying the Book of Mormon, and explore simple “this or that” questions to help you think about what fits your current season: Morning quiet time, night quiet time, or whenever it happens? Scripture reading or listening? App or physical scriptures? Silence or worship music while cleaning? You’ll leave with one simple piece of listener homework: choose just one spiritual habit to focus on this week. Keep it small. Keep it doable. Let it be life-giving rather than pressure-filled. If you’re feeling spiritually dry or disconnected, this episode is a reminder that you don’t need a perfect quiet time to meet with God. You need a willing heart. He sees the sacred work you’re doing as a mother and He meets you there. If this episode brings you peace, share it with a friend or leave a review. It helps us reach more moms who need this kind of grace.
