Overwhelmed to Peace
Hello my friends,
I’m way excited to offer a free 10 – 15 minute series of personal recordings discussing how to go from feelings of being overwhelmed to feelings of peace. These recordings are not professional but I hope you will enjoy them and I hope they will help you find greater peace by turning away from dark, demanding thoughts to lighter more inspiring ones.I collected these thoughts, scriptures, personal stories and occasional songs to help me when I was feeling overwhelmed. These recordings help calm my hands and heart when I listen to them as I drive, do housework or sit down to find a calm corner amid chaos. I pray that they may help you and that you may share them with others.Below are three .wav files for downloading. They are10-12 MB each, so downloading may take some time. If these files do not open properly in Windows Media Player, please try right-clicking on the file, choosing Save Target As.. and then save it to your hard drive. Then download RealPlayer and open it that way . E-mail Patricia at patripotts@mstarmetro.net with any problems or comments. Thank you!
Personal Peace Worksheet (Cognitive Therapy)There are times when I have an overload of negative emotion. In the past, I have retained feelings of guilt and fear for days. Often my fear was based on mind-reading or fortune telling or beliefs that were not true. At times I even had trouble getting up in the morning. I heard one person call it “frozen with fear!” Through great examples such as Darla Isackson and David Burns and with the help and inspiration of the Lord I have developed a “Personal Peace Worksheet ”. I have found that by spending 10 -20 minutes to reevaluate my negative thoughts and feelings, I can save days of anguish. I created this simple “circle the answer” form to make the process faster and also more thorough. After finishing a worksheet, I experience the miracle of going from negative to positive energy. You will find more examples and a deeper explanation of this powerful method in my book “My Journey from Darkness to Light” available sometime June 2008.
The first link contains an example Personal Peace worksheet that I recently completed. The next link is a blank download for your personal use. Please e-mail me at patripotts@mstarmetro.net with any suggestions. Thanks!
