Navigating Joy Together Lauren, Mark, Addison, and Hunter Raymond

Today I speak with Belinda Hearn.  Belinda is a women's transformation & EFT Tapping coach with a passion for empowering and helping others unleash their highest potential. Belinda is a guiding light on the journey to inner healing, emotional balance and resilience. Her unique blend of knowledge and practical guidance empowers individuals to find calmness, break through barriers, and transform their lives. Belinda believes that everyone has the potential for growth and healing, and her mission is to provide practical tools to show women how to use their own body to heal itself. Through a blend of evidence based, heart-centered practices, she inspires clarity, growth and lasting change in those she works with. Finding joy and becoming your best self doesn't have to be scary, complicated or take years, you have everything you need already within you, you might just need someone to show you how to access it.

This conversation is very fascinating. Belinda talks about her own personal experience of how she didn't even recognize herself, all the different tools she tried to pull herself out of her funk and what actually worked.  She tapped into her nervous system, learning all about it and how it impacts how we feel. Belinda also started EFT tapping and found it extremely useful.  

Now she works with clients in many different ways, teaching them the benefit of EFT and how it can help them get back to their JOY.  This is her true passion and she with tap with anyone who is willing to do it with her! 

Her biggest piece of advice, "It is up to you to find your JOY!"

In this episode, I interview Jason Wolbers. Jason is a successful business owner, husband, dad, positive influencer, and author of the book The Power of a Positive Mindset! His purpose is to help people to develop and maintain a more positive mindset and all around outlook in life!

Jason shares how he grasped onto this positive lifestyle after being anxiety ridden for many years when he was younger.  He also shares his inspiration for his book and how he supports others in living a more positive, joyful, life.

A lot of what Jason talks about are things I believe in and have even practiced myself.  But it is always great to hear it again as it reminds us of things we might not being doing currently or have let slip away.

In this episode we share the importance of sharing highs and low as a family.

They allow a family to connect with each other after a day apart, and opening up lines for deeper communication.  We share how we do it and we even share our highs and lows that we had on this particular day.  

Take a listen and please share with us how you do this with your family.  If you don't, start putting into practice. It may seem weird at first, but I guarantee it will create better and stronger communication with each other and help get past the "fine" as an answer.

This episode is hosted by Hunter. To be completely honest, we were having a hard time finding a moment we could all sit down together to record so he took the bull by the horn and did his own episode.

We had no idea what he was going to talk about until he recorded it. He "killed" it.  Maybe he said the title of our podcast wrong, but he definitely knows what to talk about when it comes to creating JOY.

Itś hard to find JOY when we are suffering from traumatic events whether past or present. 

I was looking up articles recently to see how JOY and trauma relate to each other and found this great blog post about it.  https://tinybuddha.com/blog/why-joy-is-important-for-healing-developmental-trauma/ by  Irina Bengston
Even though it is specific to developmental trauma, I believe what the author says can be put into play in all kinds of trauma or when dealing with a traumatic event. I was looking for this information because of the last couple traumatic events my family has experienced.

1. Our 4 year old doggy dyeing unexpectedly in September
2. Our car burned down in our drive way just after we got out of it, in December.

Both of these events have been very traumatic for us and we have been learning how to navigate and process them.  My kids have not yet experienced death this closely yet and who experiences a car burning down in their driveway? I would think that is rare. 

This blog resonated with me. Here is what the author shares:
Learn to tolerate difficult emotions.Live in the moment.Learn to calm yourself.Engage yourself fully.Help or shareChoose joy.

There are a few others so take a look at the post and see what else she has to day.
