Here are just a few Bible verses:
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Here are some citations from Ellen G. White's writings:
She presents the view that there exists an intimate relationship between the condition of the body and spiritual discernment: "Anything that lessens physical strength enfeebles the mind and makes it less capable of discriminating between right and wrong." - Christ's Object Lessons, pg. 346.
"The brain nerves which communicate with the entire system are the only medium through which Heaven can communicate to man and affect his inmost life. Whatever disturbs the circulation of the electric currents in the nervous system lessens the strength of the vital powers, and the result is a deadening of the sensibilities of the mind." - Testimonies for the Church, volume 2, pg. 347.
She recommends the reading of the Bible and books related to it as the best mental food for the development of the mind and that reading other material will weaken the mind: "Many of the youth say, 'I have no time to study my lesson.' But what are they doing? Some are crowding in every moment to earn a few cents more, when this time pressed into work, if given to the study of the Bible would, if they practiced its lessons, save them more than the amount gained by overwork ... That mind is ruined which is allowed to be absorbed in story-reading. The imagination becomes diseased, sentimentalism takes possession of the mind, and there is a vague unrest, a strange appetite for unwholesome mental food, which is constantly unbalancing the mind." - Messages to Young People, pg. 290.
Too much time spent seeking education and making it a priority above all also weakens the mind: "There are many who are crowding too many studies into a limited period of time. They are overworking their mental powers; and as a consequence they see many things in a perverted light ... They become unbalanced in mind ... but in overburdening the mind, they bring upon themselves life-long physical infirmities that cripple their powers, and unfit them for future usefulness." - Fundamentals of Christian Education, pg. 350.
She states it is important to rest the mind also: "Proper periods of sleep and rest and an abundance of physical exercise are essential to health of body and mind." - Testimonies for the Church, vol. 7, pg. 247.
