Hey lovely souls, I’m Brittany, and today let’s simmer in a heartfelt chat about mental and emotional wellness, the tricky questions we often find ourselves tangled in, and how my journey unwrapped a life-altering lesson for me.

The Mistake: Drowning in the “Why”

Peering into my past, I was shrouded in a cavernous depth of despair, its walls slick with anxiety and shame, and its air thick with self-disgust and loathing. Even amid a therapist’s guidance and a cascade of support, my self-harming habits clasped firmly onto me, unwilling to let go.

My heart ached with the repetitive echo of “Why?” Why me? Why this struggle? Why this pain? Why can’t I get better? What is wrong with me?

These questions were a relentless tide, washing over me, tethering me to a cycle of suffering and self-doubt, which, in the abyss of depression and anxiety, felt almost comforting in its familiarity.

A Divine Whisper: Pivoting from “Why” to “How”

Then, in a moment of as sobs echoed in my office, I surrendered. I stopped asking why me and asked for help from a Higher Power. That is when I heard, “The tools for your healing, beautiful soul, have always been within you. You have been given everything you need.”

This divine nudge unfolded a realization: My fixation on “Why?” and on the how much I was suffering was a misstep, a dance with despair that shadowed the true path toward healing and joy.

The Liberating Shift: Embracing “How” & “What”

The transformation began when my questions shifted shape, adopting a form that invited solutions and self-empowerment:

How can I pivot towards feeling slightly better in this moment?

What can I embrace now to step closer to joy?

How can I plant seeds of satisfaction and watch them bloom into heartfelt, healing light?

And, dearest ones, the answers were astonishingly simple, always looping back to one uplifting word: Joy.

The 90 Day Joy Journey: A Blossoming of Inner Peace

In this gentle upheaval, “The 90 Day Joy Journey” took root, for 90 days I asked myself this question, “What can I do today, right now to feel a little bit better?” This curiosity of how to heal myself with practices that enhanced my happiness blossomed into a sacred program. A program and practice that I have the honor of sharing with clients whose souls are like yours. It’s a space where we delve into our own universes, exploring what caresses joy into our lives, what elevates our very being into a realm of love, gratitude, and tranquil abundance.

Your Pathways to Create Peace and Joy

Physical Activities: Engaging Motion for Mind and Body Relief

1. Breathwork Class: Participating in a breathwork class can help in releasing emotional and physical tension, reducing stress, and improving overall mood. It encourages a deeper connection with oneself, enhancing self-awareness and presence, and promoting a sense of peace and joy from within.
2. Fascia Massage: By massaging and releasing the fascial layers, we not only contribute to our physical wellness but also unlock emotional blockages, creating a profound sense of relaxation and tranquility, making it a holistic approach to embodying joy and calm.
3. Prioritizing 7-9 Hours of Regular Sleep: Ensuring you receive a sufficient amount of quality sleep is crucial for maintaining mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Adequate sleep can improve mood, reduce stress and anxiety levels, enhance cognitive function, and bolster the immune system.
4. Infrared Sauna: The heat penetrates deeply, easing joints and muscles while the infrared waves detoxify and renew

Nature and Outdoor Activities: Immerse in Nature’s Calm Embrace

Creative Expression: Navigate Through Emotional Streams with Creativity

1. Singing: Releases endorphins and oxytocin, reducing anxiety and stress.
2. Drawing or Sketching: Provides a sense of accomplishment and reduces anxiety.
3. Practicing Calligraphy: The rhythm and motions can be meditative and calming.
4. Dancing: Dance to your favorite song. Dancing can improve mood, reduce stress, and increase energy levels.

Social and Altruistic Acts: Cultivate Happiness Through Connection and Generosity

Mindfulness and Mental Wellness: Ground the Mind for Smooth Emotional Navigation

1. Purge writing: Brain dump everything in your head and then throw it away. This allows space for what you actually need to focus on. 
2. Mindful Breathing: Take five minutes to focus on your breath. This practice can reduce stress and promote relaxation by activating the parasympathetic nervous system.
3. Gratitude Journaling: Write down three things you’re thankful for. This refocuses the mind on positive aspects, fostering happiness and reducing anxiety.
4. Mindful Eating: Spend 15 minutes eating a meal without distractions. This can reduce overeating and improve digestion.
5. Meditation: Meditate for 10 minutes. Meditation can decrease anxiety, improve emotional health, and enhance self-awareness.

Note:

Always ensure any new practice or activity aligns with your physical and mental well-being, and consult a healthcare professional as needed. Your journey is uniquely yours, to be traveled with honor and attuned to your personal needs.

In every practice, every moment of peace, resides an invitation to a deeper connection with your being, a tranquil communion with the universe, and a gentle caress to your ever-deserving nervous system. 🌟🍃
