Mental health and healing are not linear!

Have you ever been told that? It’s almost like a spiral, where you have progress and growth and then you swing back around for a moment, in what feels like a set back only to propel forward again. The cycle repeats over and over.

I have a hard time with the word “healing” sometimes because of that. We are never “healed” of mental illness; whether it’s depression, anxiety, panic disorder, PTSD....the list goes on. We make strides to be functional, but healing is a stretch.

Mental health is something that millions of people struggle with on a daily basis from he highest of highs to the lowest of lows. This month is mental health awareness month and I want to share some of what I have used to help me get back to the “highs” throughout this month.

It’s a journey that we don’t all want to be on, but we can do things to make the trip a little more bearable.

Have you ever felt like you have been faced with more than you can handle? This is a topic that was brought up by recently and her words couldn't have come through at a more perfect time.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This past week felt like more than I could handle, it felt like more that I ever wanted to handle. But, the reality is this week was exactly what I needed. It feels absolutely insane to say that, but without the push that this week gave me nothing would have changed!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When we are given events and circumstances no matter how impossible they seem, we are capable of making it through to the other side. These events are not meant to break us, they are meant to shape us, one step at a time.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A few years ago a week like this week would have broken me, but now I know that it was a chance for me to grow, and put the things that i have been teaching into action.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Believe it or not "Frozen II" said it best "do the next right thing". One step at a time, look inside, pray, meditate, and have your community around you to support you. You are capable of handling the hard things!

It's finally here! The promise of new birth, warmth, sunlight, joy, and peace! Wow, that's a lot of pressure to put on a season, and us! Do you ever get the "urge to purge" or the desire to clean everything in sight to just start over?! No? Just me? ok!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Just in case I'm not alone, this month I wanted to focus on ways to help you get your house feeling fresh. This winter we all barricaded ourselves inside with our sadness, isolation, and gloom so now it's time to get rid of all of that negativity and bring in some sunlight!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This month We will take a look at the best beginners kit for a person ready to make some changes....the "Healthy Start Kit". This kit has almost everything that you need to get started, and what you don't have you will get from me!

Welcome to spring cleaning Fiercely Britt style!

In January we got to say peace out to what was probably one of the worst years for the entire world. Sadly, there wasn't just a magic switch that made everything better on January 1st, but at least we had an idea of what our year might look like with a glimmer of hope added in also. It's a world of constant technology, emails, video chats, social media posts, and computer screens. I don't know about you, but it just feels so distant.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I shared last week that I wanted to continue move away from that a little, and I am holding true to that. Sitting in my favorite spot on a Saturday morning is my first time getting on social media, and it feels good. I'm communicating with people through texting and phone calls more these days and I love it!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love the feeling of calling someone by name and interacting with an individual. I miss the connection, I miss hearing about what is happening in your life, I miss helping you with the things that Y O U need. I want to give you the support that you need either through daily affirmations, weekly diffuser blends or individual support.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In March I am starting a monthly oil trial program, each one will run for 1 week with daily instructions on how to use the oils that you get in the trial, and what they can do for you. The trials are free and open to ALL.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can text/DM me and talk about what might be the best fit for you!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't let 2021 be another year of disconnect and loneliness. We have had enough of that in 2020, and it's time to move forward and be supported!

In August of 2019 I decided to leave my job and focus on doterra and following my dreams. I wanted to find work in the field of music therapy, work from home, and help others. I started working as a substitute teacher at my daughter's school and got completely caught up in it. I forgot why I had decided to start this new journey. By January, I had finally started to get back into the groove, and then COVID happened. Everything came to a screeching halt.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's been several months and I'm done making excuses. My dreams are worth pursuing and working for. I know that a holistic approach to health is not for everyone and neither is the social selling model that doterra uses, but it's important to me. I don't know where this journey is really leading me, but I do know that being on it brings me joy and the reason that I am here is extremely important to me. So here it is....my new beginning, and it starts with you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I want to be an advocate for individuals that feel lost and in the dark. I want to show them that they are not alone and that their power is still theirs. I want to use essential oils and sound healing to show them that God has given us the gifts that we need to help ourselves. I want to be a voice for people that feel lost to help guide them back to the path. I want to be able to show Noelle that anything is possible, whether you are a millionaire or a single mom with no clue what you are doing. I want to create a future that allows us to say “yes” when adventure calls and stay close when our hearts need family.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is why I'm here, and I can't wait to see what's next.

Two years ago, everything changed. If you have followed me for a while you may have noticed the change. My depression had crept it's way back in, in a way that I didn't know how to control, and my anxiety was at an all time high. My business was suffering, my daughter was suffering, and my family was worried.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In November of 2018 I hit the biggest milestone of my business to date and I was on a major high, but by the next month everything changed. I started to withdraw, and I stopped moving forward. I lost sight of what I wanted and I lost track of what my goals really were. I blamed it on time, my circumstances, other people, my job, anything and everything but myself.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In late spring of 2019 I hit rock bottom. I remember calling my mom in tears because I was so scared. I had just woken up from a panic attack that resulted in me blacking out for somewhere between 15 and 20 minutes. I remember her telling me that I could no longer ignore what was happening and that I needed help.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I found a therapist and began digging a little deeper into what was going on. We talked about the goals I had for my life, the mourning that I never took the time to do for the lift I thought I would have, and about being strong and confident in the person that I am now.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This story doesn't end here, check back tomorrow for what's next!

M O T I V A T I O N
Fast forward to three years ago when we moved to Georgia. My depression was back, my anxiety was alive and well, and we were not living with my sister and brother-in-law. I have never been able to fully express to them just how much it meant to me that they opened their home to us, but that was the only reason we were able to make it to this point now. I had no job, and a very limited savings account. Again we were relying on the support of my family.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At this point in my life, I realized that my reason for continuing my business had changed. It was no longer about showing my daughter that we can do the hard things, it was about being able to help pay the bills. It was about being able to contribute to grocery shopping.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thanks to this business I was able to keep the financial support that I needed from my parents to a minimum, and I was able to follow through with attending our global convention using only money from my business.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
See, as humans our reasons for going after the things that we want change constantly as the world changes. Three years ago my reason for continuing this business was not flashy, and moving, and emotional. My reasoning was basic, instinctual, and necessary.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Why are you getting out of bed everyday?!

A N Y T H I N G I S P O S S I B L E
What is your reason for getting out of bed? Mine is a beautiful, smart, funny, and quirky six year old. Though I may not have seen it at the time she was a blessing, a gift, and a promise. If you had asked me at 16 where I would be after college, my answer most definitely would not have been my reality. I was a 23 year old single mom, moving back into her parent's house to start an unpaid internship...talk about glamorous.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When that little girl was roughly 18 months old I finally said, "enough, is enough!" I was so depressed, so anxious, and so resentful. I forced smiles and laughs, and I felt so angry all the time. After Stacey showed me DoTerra, and what it was all about I was sold and I wanted to tell everyone!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I started the business portion of DoTERRA officially over the summer of 2015 with no clue what the heck I was doing. It wasn't until I took part in a "business bootcamp" that I finally realized why I was really doing all of this. It wasn't for M Y mental health, and it wasn't about MY personal growth; it was about Noelle. I was a single mother who was able to pay my bills simply because of the fact that my family was loving enough to help me, and I wanted to show my little girl that no matter your circumstances you can move mountains. I started this business to show her that A N Y T H I N G is possible.

Have you ever felt like you were just HOME with an idea or when someone invites you to be part of something?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A little while back I came across a post by Aislin from that really hit home for me. It made me feel seen, but it also helped me give myself permission to go for that dream that I've had for myself for years.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So how do you know if an idea is like "H O M E". It lights you up inside so brightly that the people around you can't help but to ask "what's different?" Your body might tingle with excitement and anticipation for what is coming. Some of you might just feel a complete sense of peace. An overwhelming calm and sense of ease.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Those are the ideas that you are meant to be following. Take the steps everyday to bring those possibilities into reality. Lately, that has been the hardest part for me. What about you? Have you felt like you're just drowning and can't figure out where the steps are?! It's O K!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You will absolutely have days that feel like there is no way out or you will hit points that all you want is to quit, but hold onto that feeling of home. Hold onto the dream that got you to where you are in the first place. The struggle will all be worth it when you come out on the other side and you've come home to yourself! Just take one step, one day at a time.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What is your dream that feels like coming home? Share in the comments or DM me and we can dream them together!

Do you ever find yourself in the moment and suddenly feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, stressed, or even angry? Ever wonder what you could do to change that? Try this 5 minute fix to reset your mood.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In a 10 mL roller bottle add these:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
-5 drops of Lavender
-5 drops of lemon
-5 drops of Adaptiv
fill the rest with a carrier oil of your choice.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Apply the roller to your wrists and upper stomach. Take a moment and breathe in this space. Think about what it is that you are really feeling, state it out loud. "Right now I feel..." Naming your emotion takes away it's "power" over you and allows you to change it. Now replace that negative emotion with the way you W A N T to feel.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When we name what is happening to us, we gain the control and power back. We are able to reset our minds and moods, by simply trying again. Try this 5 minute reset button today and tell me in the comments how it goes!

Do you know what it feels like to blame yourself for the things that go wrong? Better yet, do you know how to change it?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Guilt is among the lowest vibrational emotions leaving us feeling low and down in the dumps. So how do you know if this is you? Here are a few things you might catch yourself saying:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ I can’t believe I let this happen!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ How could I....(fill in the blank)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ I’ve ruined (blank)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do those sound familiar? Chances are that at some point everyone has blamed themselves for a situation. The important and difficult part is getting out of that negative vibrational state and “let go”.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I use the phrase “let go” loosely simply meaning release the feeling of guilt. Are you ready to release? Take a moment to breathe, apply frankincense, and grab your journal. This is an excellent opportunity for self reflection. Apply frankincense to your palms and inhale deeply, and apply the remaining oil over your heart. Reflect on the situation that you are struggling with and begin writing all of the what if statements that come to mind. Once you are free of “what if” thoughts write “I forgive myself fully and release my guilt!” Place your hands over your heart and inhale deeply with a smile in your face!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Leave a message in the comments about how you felt after releasing the feeling of guilt!

When I started this business (cough cough) years ago, I saw the possibility associated with it. I saw people that were living a dream life because of this business, and I knew that it was something that I wanted. When people come to me and ask me about starting a business with doTERRA I love getting to tell them about the possibilities and see their eyes light up. What is even more incredible is being able to tell them that their possibilities are endless depending on what T H E Y want to make of it.


This business is what you make of it. Want to casually talk about it to your friends and support them? Great! Want to create residual income and create a community of like minded individuals? Wonderful! Want to do some social media posts here and there? That's ok!


For me this business is a means of residual income, early retirement, travel, adventure, freedom, joy, strength, and hard work. For me its not work, but it is a job simply because it is real. Most importantly though, every day that I "work" I remind myself that "ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE"!
