Get to know Juliet

During COVID, people didn’t always have the resources to work through their anxiety and stress and it started emerging into anger, reactivity and depression. Seeing that happen all around me, made me wonder if I could help and be a resource for others to work through their pain and anger.
As a mom, I also saw this impacting my own family and realized that we often just kept going with our busy schedules rather than taking the time to work through our worry and stress. Conversely if we don’t work on it, we struggle to be present with the people that are most important to us. I want to help others learn to be more present with their own families, because it has meant so much to my own family.

I have two favorite self-care activities, one that I use every day and one that I do when I can take a more time.
Everyday I wake up early before the hustle and bustle of work and school creep into our home, and I make a cup of coffee. As a mom, I realized that I often would make coffee and then not drink it until it was cold because there were so many other things that needed my attention. Then I realized that without taking a couple of moments to live in thankfulness and grace, that the rest of my day would be spent in a panic to just get things done without any intention. Every morning, I pour my coffee, I sit in my favorite chair and breathe deeply and give thanks for all the blessings around me. It changed how I move and interact with my day.
When I have more time, I like to focus my emotions or stress into art. My favorite mediums are watercolor and clay, but it depends on the time of year and my mood.

“Ruach” is the Hebrew word for the spirit or breath that God gave to humanity at creation. In moments of deep stress, it can help to remember that this divine breath is within each of us. One of the most powerful things we can do is simply pause and breathe.

My family has a special type of Hungarian pepper that we all grow every year. A couple years ago, I read everything I could, and I learned how to make smoked Hungarian Paprika, and now I make it every year for my family. When any of us uses the paprika for cooking, we don’t measure it, we just add it until “it looks right.”
