Bridging Faith and Mental Health: Insights from Avis Ng

All these are human emotions, human elements of us, even though we can be so spiritual, but we do have times where we do struggle mentally.
Can faith and mental health coexist harmoniously? In this episode of 'Listen Up', Avis Ng, the Dean of Counselling at the Bible College of Malaysia, shares her thoughts on the often-overlooked connection between spirituality and mental well-being. With mental health becoming a hot topic, especially during these trying times, Ng sheds light on how the church is evolving to address these crucial issues.
She challenges the stigma that often surrounds mental health within the Christian community, urging listeners to see mental health as an integral part of overall well-being, not separate from their spiritual lives. Ng's perspective is refreshing and reassuring, emphasizing that struggling with mental health does not diminish one's spirituality. Instead, she highlights how spirituality can be a powerful source of support and resilience.
This conversation dives deep into the intertwined nature of spiritual, mental, and physical health, offering practical advice on how to care for all three aspects of life. If you've ever felt conflicted about balancing your faith with your mental health needs, this episode provides valuable insights and encouragement to seek help when needed. Tune in for an enlightening discussion that promises to break down barriers and foster a more holistic approach to health.
