"I don't want any medicine!"
How many times in my 20 plus years of treating patients as a psychiatrist have I heard this? I can't tell you. Yet, I know that I especially hear this from people of faith.
Take 5! Pathway to Peace: A 40-Day Journaling Experience is my gift to people of faith who desire peace without prescriptions and wholeness without the wait in a doctor's office. This book is designed to be the first step in the direction of peace. It is an invitation to pause for just five minutes a day over the next 40 days and be intentional about pursuing your peace over a coffee break with the Holy Spirit.
My prayer for you is that as you write, you won’t just write and reflect but that you will release. Release fear. Release pressure. Release the burdens that are not yours to carry. Release your concern about others' opinions of you. And as you release, I pray you will also receive. Receive God’s peace. Receive His stillness. And receive His sabbath rest.
On this 40 day journey, I encourage you to take off the mask of perfection, lay down the weight of others’ expectations, and breathe deeply in the presence of God. Then labor to enter into HIS rest. This journaling is a part of that "labor" and this journey is where the seeds are planted and the peace begins.

FROM MY HEART TO YOURS
For me, Take 5! Pathway to Peace is a beautifully wrapped five-minute coffee break with the Holy Spirit that I can't wait to get to the first thing in the morning. And I can't wait to return after a day's work. It's where I return to recalibrate and find calm in the midst of life’s chaos. It's my "friend" that won't judge me or share my secrets. Take 5 is my daily reminder to give thanks. Just writing the things I'm thankful for gives me a boost of joy. As I'm writing the day's events down, it feels like laying down my burdens and worries while God uploads His peace into my spirit.

I've had a lot of journals. And this is not that. Take 5! Pathway to Peace is a guided journal on steroids! It's not just a resource with comfort for those who are stressed, anxious or overwhelmed, but a gift to your soul. This journal is a sanctuary on paper and a tool for lasting change for anyone seeking balance or a moment of peace from the busyness of life. I can think of no better companion than this journal to help you release stress and deepen your faith.

I love working through Pathway to Peace. . . I love the scripture at the beginning of each page and the chance to get all my thoughts down. I love the design and layout. It's sophisticated and appealing. I can't wait to gift this to all my girlfriends.

Take 5! Pathway to Peace will be a guiding light for Christians to combat anxiety. It's educational and inspiring. As a psychiatrist myself, I will definitely be recommending this simple but powerful journal to my patients, church members, family, and friends. This book was needed.
