Funds will also cover the development of 501C-3 ministry, Joel 2:25 Ministries.Contact CymoneCymone Lashae, founder of the 501C-3 organization "Of A Sound Mind Inc" is a mental health advocate, and patient. As a survivor of her mental health diagnosis (Bi-Polar Disorder among others) Cymone has done the hard work and continues to do so! . Cymone is a trauma survivor but she is also a survivor of an attempt to take her own life. Today, Cymone is behind the microphone with me as she tells us her story of Hope and healing, but also the very real diagnosis that she has had to learn to manage and treat. Cymone's organization "Of A Sound Mind Inc" is based on the scripture in 2 Tim 1:7"But God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of love and of a sound mind".Cymone's story is one of ridiculous Hope and she too refers to Jesus as the Star of her story, and who's mantra is "God saved my life, there is no reason I should have survived trying to take it."This conversation includes more information on generational trauma, the science of trauma as it pertains to the damage that trauma causes, but also how we can heal. Cymone's story is nothing short of miraculous.She is a shining example of what it means to turn lemons into "something that resembles lemonade". Life is not perfect for her but, she understands the importance of mental health awareness and attention. She reminds us that if we don't pay attention to trauma, it will pay attention to us. Cymone reminds us of the Bible verse where Paul says in Romans 1:16."For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation". Cymone loves the God Who saved her life and she wants you to know about Him too. Contact Cymone to partner with her to assist mental health patients with simple but sometimes impossible tasks of grocery shopping, house maintenance and other daily living activities that many of us complete with ease. People who are suffering with mental health diagnosis, often struggle with these task. Of A Sound Mind Inc. is launching a program to the community to help. If you would like to be part of that, please contact Cymone or me.You ARE:SEEN KNOWN HEARD LOVED VALUED
