Bonus: We Labor Into Rest

from Healed Anyway 🌸 Hosted by Carmela Jean

🌸 Gentle Disclaimer: "Before we begin, you may notice a little extra background noise in this episode. I chose to keep it just as it flowed, because sometimes the message is too sacred to re-record. Thank you for listening with grace." - :) I have two more episodes scheduled for the You Are Seen series - and they are coming. But over these past couple of weeks, I've been listening to my body and to God's timing. I needed to slow down, to breathe, to allow myself to rest. And in the midst of that rest, this word came - and it feels like it's meant for today. On Labor Day of all days, when so many of us are craving rest, God whispered to me: We labor into rest. So I'm sharing this episode first. Think of it as a bridge between series. A continuation of my previous episode — as a reminder that pauses have purpose. And sometimes the word we need most is the one given in the waiting. The other episodes will follow soon, but today, this is the word on my heart. In this episode of Healed Anyway, I share a sacred moment from my recent return to the waterfall - where God reminded me that true healing begins in the heart. Through a black butterfly, circling hawk, divine timing, and a conversation with my mentor, I was shown that we are called to labor into rest. Not striving, not fearing, but surrendering into God's presence where healing flows like living water. If you're weary today, this episode is your invitation to pause, breathe, and find rest under the shadow of His wings. 🕊️ What You'll Hear in This Episode: ​How God used numbers, symbols, and divine encounters to confirm His presence ​Why the "secret place" is your heart - the inner garden where He meets you ​The revelation that rest is not weakness but the opposite of toil ​A simple breath practice you can do right now to enter into rest 💜 Friend, you don't have to earn rest. It's already given. You're invited to receive it. #HealedAnyway #LaborDayRest #BreathWork 🎧 Music: Lo-fi Chill Meditation 🌿 Visit www.wholibody.com 💌 Support, subscribe, or leave a gentle review if this blessed you.

I was a health-rejectionist! I didn't think it mattered what our lifestyles were like – I even doubled down on this approach, working in the ultra-processed foods industry for a decade (and gained a lot of weight and was fatigued all the time, but I didn't connect the dots!) But then I got very sick. And my young children did, too. I started to open up to the idea that what we ate, how (if!) we moved, how we slept and more – how it did matter! I "walked back" my chronic disease diagnoses and my kids healed. After over a decade
