337: Prayer In Motion with Jennifer Tucker

 
 
 

God made your body to move - not to fit into a certain size or hit a number on a scale.

In this episode, I’m joined by Jennifer Tucker to talk about her new book Prayer in Motion - and why your body could be the missing piece in your prayer life.

We’re diving into how stress gets stored in the body, why movement matters, and how combining prayer + movement can help regulate your nervous system and reconnect you with God. You’ll learn…

  • Why emotions don’t just live in your mind - they live in your body

  • The difference between exercise and movement

  • How simple movement releases “hope molecules” (yes, really)

  • Practical ways to pray in motion throughout your day

This isn’t about doing more…
it’s about embodying your role as a holy vessel in a whole new way.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, this might be the shift you need.
