How the Soccer Mom Look Helps Me Heal

Hello, tender friends!

Anthony likes to make fun of this sun visor. But you know what? It’s totally worth him saying, “Wow you’re really embracing the middle-aged soccer mom look” for the health benefits..

I used to wear sun hats that fully covered my head, but I have switched them out in favor of letting sunlight hit my hair directly. Because this, tender friends, is how I get God closer to my brain. It’s one of the ways that God wired us to connect with him and to experience his healing.

We know that God is light (1 John 1:5). But like anything else in the Bible, I think this statement has as many layers of meaning as a disco ball does facets, and is true in a literal sense. Jehovah-Rapha, as literal light, stimulates our bodies to function optimally.

Here’s how it works: Our cells are predominantly water. Water actually has a structure, and structured water is one of the things that is also restorative, but that topic is better suited for a separate post. For now, let’s just focus on the fact that water has a healing structure that is disrupted by modern plumbing. (Structured water is available through certain devices, some of which are actually very inexpensive, and through naturally occurring water such as in streams).

When sunlight hits our cells, it structures the water inside of them as God intended. This enables our mitochondria to function properly. As we all learned in high school, the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. It’s responsible for our overall energy levels and part of the secret to life.

The more that your mitochondria are stimulated, the more energy you have to do everything, including heal and chase the dreams that God has planted in your heart.

So while God works on renewing my mind, I’m going to let him get in there directly and remove that barrier of the sun hat. I’ll take all the renewal that I can get.

Ok, that’s all for today, but I will expand on this idea with a little more scientific evidence of God’s goodness on Monday’s post next week. I’m so excited about it that it’s hard not to release it on Thursday. But I’m trying to stick to when I say I will be releasing content, so I’ll share my food post on Thursday as I said I would. It’s Swiss Chard season, my friends, and I’m loving it so far!

Oh, and that’s a picture of me and Cub after he handed me his wind-up toy chick, which is in my hand, and told me he wants to go into the coop to pet the real chickens.

Oh, and here’s a picture of me actually looking at the camera after picking suckers off tomato plants, only because it feels strange to post a series of pictures not looking at the camera. Anthony thinks I’m not “doing enough outside work” because I look pale. HAHAHA! I think it’s just his camera.

Thank you for stopping by, and have a great day!

Oh, and if you feel like leaving a comment, can someone please tell Anthony that 37 is not middle-aged!? I keep telling him that I have a good number of years before I consider myself middle-aged and would appreciate an “AMEN!” on this if you’re so inclined. And even if he is perhaps middle-aged at 40, my love will always be young at heart.

Thank you for sharing!
