Mental Health vs. Mental Wellness: How to Protect Your Peace and Thrive


๐Ÿ’ก Are you stuck in cycles of emotional burnout, wondering why your mental health efforts donโ€™t seem to last? The key might not be just mental healthโ€”itโ€™s mental wellness.

In this episode of Prescription for Purpose, Dr. Sharla breaks down the difference between mental health vs. mental wellness, showing you how to protect your peace, strengthen resilience, and break free from unhealthy cycles. Many Christians focus on restoration (healing past wounds) but forget the importance of maintenance (safeguarding peace and joy daily).

๐Ÿš€ Learn how to: โœ” Leverage biblical protective factors to guard your mind and spirit
โœ” Understand Matthew 12:43-45 and why spiritual maintenance is critical
โœ” Use Philippians 4:4-9 to build a faith-based mental wellness plan
โœ” Apply positive psychology principles through a Christian lens
โœ” Stop feeling like youโ€™re doing all the things but getting nowhere

๐Ÿ“ Resources for Further Growth:
