Since my cancer journey in 2023, I decided to immerse myself in finding ways to heal my body and mind.

 

During this search, I found a program from the wonderful Marci Schimoff. She is the author of the well-known Chicken Soup for the Women's Souls books and has dedicated her life to helping people be happier. 

 

One of her many ways is through her book, Happiness for No Reason. 

 

No, it’s not about skipping through life like a 6-year-old girl without care… rather it is about gaining control over how we feel and allowing ourselves to feel Happier - and maybe skipping a bit more. 

 

She developed a lovely program based on the book that uses the analogy of a home. Suppose you think of yourself as your home with different rooms. Some rooms are nice and tidy, whereas others may need some help. 

 

The seven areas are:

The first is the Foundation, which is where we take responsibility for our happiness

 

Then there are four pillars:

​

The Mind -  not listening to all it has to say.

Leading with your Heart of compassion in your life decisions. 

We should take care of our Bodies.

Finding space for our Souls and spirits should be listened to.

​

The Roof represents finding our purpose.

Lastly, the Garden represents finding our community filled with people who support us. 

 

Each area of the home is a separate area of focus. 

We take time to learn how to foster this area and set you up for success. We paint, clean the carpet, re-set your furniture, clean the closet, and rearrange the clothes. 

 

You don’t need to be on an illness journey to join the party. 

 

Honestly, I wish I had these tools in my tool belt before my health scare.  

 

This program is for anyone seeking to flip the switch to live your life to its fullest!

​

• More moments of taking control of your life. 

• More moments of being in love with yourself.

• More moments of smiling. 

• More moments of feeling worthy.

 

I am a certified trainer of Happiness for No Reason, and to continue with the turtle analogy, I would love to coax you out of that turtle shell and swim in this beautiful ocean with me.
