7 core factors for healing and happiness


So the other day, I was in a sucky mood.

And I shared it with you.

Y'all were so wonderful.

I got so many messages of encouragement and support.

Thanks for being there.

One message touched me so much that I wanted to share it with you.

"Thanks for your honesty and integrity and all your feelings.

You lead with your need and courage and your commitment to include it all.

It helps so much to know we’re not alone."

That's exactly why I shared my experience with you.

If you're in a sucky mood, I want you to know that it doesn't take away one tiny ounce from your magnificence or your greatness.

Watching the HEAL documentary, I feel inspired to share this quick screenshot with you.

These 9 factors were found in people who experienced radical healing from extreme illness.

Only 2 of these factors for healing are physical (not bolded)

The remaining 7 (bolded) are all related to AUTHENTICITY.

In the first bolded sentence…

You could replace the word “health” for “happiness”.

"TAKING CONTROL OF YOUR HAPPINESS"

These 7 factors are the heartbeat of every conversation at Joy-Based Living.

Enlivening these practices in the world is why I get up every morning.

It’s why I created JBL and have poured my heart into it for the past 7 years.

EMBRACING SOCIAL SUPPORT can strengthen all of the other factors.

How strong are you in practicing these 7 factors for health and happiness?

I believe in you with all my heart!

Hey all! My dear friend Rebecca, founder of Journaling.com and author of the Joy Journal, is inviting YOU to participate in her PhD research experiment.

A few years ago, one of my really good friends would talk to me about changing her eating habits. She said she wanted to do it for better health. But her underlying tone (which I heard as clear as day)... was self-disapproval, even shame. It's hard for me to watch someone I care about treat themselves harshly. She would ask me what I thought. I would say things like... "I wish you would stop beating yourself up. Your tone of voice (toward yourself) sounds demanding and harsh. You sound like...
