To start our journey of reframing those heavy moments, this first exercise is all about finding and sharing your "Main Happy." The heart of this is to help you craft a creative shield—something to bypass the pain and pull your focus back toward joy. It probably won't work perfectly or exactly the way we planned, but we will likely get a good laugh out of the effort. This is also a beautiful chance for us to see the creative ways everyone else handles their own challenges.
Exercise: Declare Your Happy:
Sharing your Happy is a simple, public declaration of what brings you a spark of genuine joy or helps distract you when life feels a bit too heavy. This could be a favorite character, a hobby that calms you, a pet, or even a silly joke that breaks up a cycle of grief.
-Visual Evidence: Share up to three pictures or videos of your "Happy" in the comments below so we can see what it looks like.
-Tell us a little bit about how this special thing acts as a filter for whatever you’re walking through right now.
*This community works through participation. The more we actually engage with people here by liking their posts and responding to them; the more access we get to deeper threads and conversations. Skool has a built-in point system that helps Rise show up in their discovery feed.
When people talk to each other instead of just lurking, this circle stays alive. We are here to connect and grow. By participating, we give opportunities to let people in, and connections be made.
