As we enter a new year, many of us sense the need to slow down, recalibrate, and return to healthier rhythms—physically, mentally, and spiritually. Over the years, I’ve learned to be discerning about what I recommend, especially when it comes to practices that shape the body and the inner life. When I do share something, it’s because I believe it genuinely supports restoration, wisdom, and shalom.I want to introduce you to Simonette Cherepanov, a pastoral counselor and author whose work I deeply respect. Simonette has spent years walking with individuals and families through renewal and healing through her counseling practice, Seven Lamp Wellness, where she integrates Scripture, neuroscience, and whole-person care in a grounded, pastoral way. She is also the author of Back to Eden, a book centered on returning to God-designed rhythms for the body, brain, and soul.
Beginning January 4, Simonette is inviting us to join her for the Back to Eden Lifestyle Reset, a gentle and intentional 21-day challenge. This reset builds on last year’s focus on renewing the mind by adding a physical layer that supports longevity, nervous-system health, and sustainable change. Rather than striving for perfection or dramatic overhauls, the goal is alignment—small, daily practices that reinforce the way we were designed to live.
Each day of the reset includes:
-
-
- simple breathing practices and longevity-focused movement
- Scripture-based mind renewal and “rewiring”
- practical diet and supplement suggestions
- tools from Dr. Daniel Amen, including his free online brain assessment and the ANTs model
-
I’ve included a short video below where Simonette shares the heart behind this reset and what to expect in her own words.
If you’re feeling the weight of modern life, the pressure of constant pace, or the quiet nudge that it’s time to care for your body and mind with greater intention, this reset may be a timely companion for the season ahead. There is no pressure to join—only an invitation. But if you do, you’ll be guided by someone with both pastoral wisdom and professional experience, and you’ll be walking alongside a community of sojourners committed to learning and living differently. If you’d like to learn more about Simonette’s counseling work, you can visit her practice at Seven Lamp Wellness.
