Today we’re talking about something that I've been meaning to discuss for awhile—the difference between self-care and soul care.

Stress and anxiety and other negative emotions respond best to soul care, not self care! Especially if you are a Christian! Then we have access to the best soul care provider in the universe that can provide us the peace and calm that passes all understanding! Here is the thing though - no clinical counselor can teach you about soul care if they are working within the healthcare or clinical model, even if they are a Christian. Of course, most of them haven't learned about soul care unless they have taken special training in it - it's not taught in most clinical mental health graduate programs.
So - ok that was a long aside - but back to the question - what makes self-care and soul care different? The main question I will focus on is this: Why is soul care better for our emotional needs and stress management?
