12. Seven Practical Ways to Nourish Your Nephesh
What does it really mean to nourish your soul? In this episode of Healthy & Redeemed, we explore the fascinating Hebrew word Nephesh, often translated as "soul" in the Bible. But Nephesh is so much more—it means your whole being: body, mind, and spirit.
Join me as we dive into key scriptures like Genesis 2:7, Deuteronomy 6:5, and Psalm 42:1-2 to uncover the biblical meaning of Nephesh and why your entire self matters to God. We’ll also discuss practical ways to care for your Nephesh, from boosting your 'happy hormones' and rest to physical activity, gratitude, and even embracing the outdoors.
