QUESTION: If you see the devastating effects of abuse as being a chronic Stress Trigger that triggers serious health issues such as, emotional eating disorders, Autoimmune Diseases, Heart Attacks, Strokes, etc.; and then you are given an opportunity to “change” the way you respond to that Stress Trigger at home, work, school, and/or church … Would you take the responsibility to invest in yourself enough to make that change?

Dr. Rita Thornton, J.D., Ed.S., Ph.D. uses her Emotional Intelligence (EI) skills along with a new transformation Trinity Lifestyle Health Coaching approach to help educate young and young-at-heart females, who want to make a behavior change in how they respond to chronic stress such as, emotional distress. With emotional distress/abuse at an all time high around the world, this “behavior change” is necessary especially for females because research shows that 80% of female patients diagnosed with Autoimmune Diseases by their healthcare providers have linked the onset of this disease to chronic stress (Psychology Today, 2025). So, this is all about needing to acquire a spiritual growth mindset along with EI skills  to “identify” the emotional stress Trigger(s) as the client prayerfully creates a “root-cause” Health & Wellness Action Plan.  This type of health coaching style creates a client-centered relevant Action Plan that not only spiritually uplifts the client with new internal strategies and habits, but a specific Action Plan that will effectively address the “root-cause” of the client’s symptoms. In partnership with Dr. Thornton as the health practice advisor, the client will create a sustainable Action Plan that promotes a healthier Spirit, Soul, and Body. And, as a result, it is up to the client, who is now empowered, to create for herself, a stress-free supportive environment around her so everyone can thrive on the kind of productivity that promotes God’s Peace.

The Power of an Uplifting Environment is a WIN WIN! … a catalyst for mutual success

The Dr.Rita Hearts Ablaze Ministries is a 501(c)(3) non-profit Trinity God education ministry that is filled with spiritual Hearts ignited with a passion to educate and comfort troubled females and children who are living in stressful human environments (2 Corinthians 1:3 & 4).  The ministry teaches females and children about how to use their God-given Holy Spiritual Tools and EI skills to identify and effectively respond to chronic Stress such as, emotional abuse in a way that gives them God’s Peace.  A peaceful heart gives life and health to the body (Proverbs 14:30) 

To spiritually BREAK FREE from chronic Stress Triggers such as, Emotional Abuse will involve being a coachable female who understands the following 3-Step Approach to the inner Healing of the Spirit, Soul & Body:

1). You must want to “Learn” the internal strategies about how to “Identify”/discern your chronic Stress Triggers so you have the spiritual growth, knowledge, wisdom, and confidence to make the necessary change(s) that will protect your own health and wellness. 

2). Once you have been made aware of the stressful environment, you must be ready and willing to “look at the Speed” at which the chronic Stress Trigger/Abusive Behavior(s)/ and/or Traumatic Event is “addressed” by you.

3). You must be ready and willing to ” Change and Reshape your Culture” or  “Redesign your Human Environment” so it has less Stress Triggers. This will be done by exposing those factors that are the “root-cause” of the stressful Culture (i.e., workload, events, people).  For example, if you truly want to “Change and Reshape your Culture,” then you must place yourself in a supportive environment that will ensure your voice is HEARD when you identify your stressful experiences, your emotional brokeness is SEEN, and what you SAY does matter to the people who are listening. 

Whenever and wherever chronic stress occurs (at work, home, church, school, etc.), there is an immediate need for any female who feels she is subjected to a stressful/hostile/toxic environment to learn how to CHANGE her emotional RESPONSE to STRESS Triggers in a peaceful way that will spiritually support her health and wellness … every day!    

With Dr. Rita’s 20+ years of results-oriented coaching experience and her Emotional Intelligence (EI) expertise as an educator, ordained minister, project manager, CEO, female leader, college professor, and survivor of Narcissistic Abuse, she currently writing and about to publish a Trinity Lifestyle Health Coaching Guidance Manual. Dr. Rita has already created and published a Spiritual Survival Guidebook and a Trinity Lifestyle Health Coaching Guidance Manual. The Survival Guidebook and Guidance Manual are both designed to provide the knowledge and a skill-set necessary for Holy Spiritual Discernment and EI Assessment skills so that when the knowledge and skills are applied, a person can quickly identify the source of the Stress Trigger.  This unique client-centered health coaching style helps the client identify and address Stress Triggers such as, emotional distress in the workplace, at home, at church, and/or in school. Also, this style of transformational health coaching Does Not rely on Human Intelligence, which experience and evidence-based data have both shown never works when trying to manage Stress Triggers/emotional conflict!  This type of “integrity” health coaching involves helping a client learn and acquire an emotional freedom technique/”skill” that helps invite God’s Holy Spirit to help in the behavior change. This”skill” is to quickly bring God’s Peace into the transformation while identifying chronic Stress Triggers. Therefore, the client (with the help of God’s Holy Spirit) is able to identify and effectively address her own Stress Trigger(s) by being able to recognize/discern abusive behavior(s) in her own personality as well as in the personalities of others.  As a result of this empowerment, both morale and productivity increase while providing a positive spiritual “uplifting” climate, a safe space, and healthy environment for all people whether those people are at work, home, church, and/or school. 

Something she had to learn how to do for herself, she now coaches other females who are experiencing health issues due to chronic Stress at work, home, school. and/or church.  All the females told her that they also got the same amazing results of establishing a healthy human enviornment in record time. So, these females told Dr. Rita that she should not keep this spiritually-driven “root-cause” health coaching style to herself, but she should share it with the world!
