Back to Zero Weekly: Creating a Calm Environment
Sep 22, 2025
Welcome to Back to Zero Weekly: Big Emotions, Simple Strategies
Each week, get one quick, actionable strategy to help you manage emotions, build self-awareness, and strengthen your relationship with yourself and others, creating greater space for joy
Creating a Calm Environment
Sometimes our outer world mirrors our inner one. If your space feels chaotic, cluttered, noisy, or disorganized, it can subtly fuel inner stress. Resetting your space resets your mind.
Strategy for the Week: Choose one small area this week (your desk, your car, your bag) to clean or organize. A clear space gives your brain fewer stress signals and makes it easier to get back to zero when needed.
Open space for joy to grow.
Love, Dr. Joy
