In this book, Pastor Yesenia Then reminds us that no matter how difficult the land where God has planted us could be, our growth must be unstoppable, since we are not victims of our environment, but the agents of change that God has sent to it. With her particular style and with a fresh perspective, Yesenia shows us how to enter the different levels of growth that God has drawn for us so that our perception is transformed, and far from feeling in crisis, we begin to be the oppressive crisis of our circumstances. 

Adversity is the most significant indicator of one’s resilience, which is why Mind Before Body focuses on the impact of imbalance in our mental and physical well-being. This imbalance can affect our daily personal and professional lives. Sometimes, our adversity can be a barrier; we should not be held back by our mistakes or traumas. On the contrary, these should be the foundation for thriving and succeeding. 

More important than what happens to us is what we decide to do with what happens to us; this is precisely the fact that results in the events that ruin the lives of some and strengthen and affirm the lives of others, no matter, necessarily, how such events end.

The power of choice is one of the most important abilities we have. But we must have the right discernment to use it as we should, since everything we are today is the product of decisions we made yesterday; and what we will be tomorrow depends on decisions we make today.
