In this episode of Choosing Joy, Jodi Lynn Turpin talks about breath as a way back to yourself.

Breath is not only what keeps us alive. It is movement, energy, stillness, and remembrance. Jodi shares how breath can help calm the body, soften reactivity, and reconnect you to joy. She walks through the phases of breath, noticing, pausing, and returning, and gently guides you through a simple 4-4-6-2 breathing practice you can come back to anytime you feel disconnected, overwhelmed, anxious, or in need of peace.

This episode is a reminder that joy is not somewhere outside of you. It lives within you, and sometimes breath is the bridge that brings you back.

In this episode:

• breath as a bridge back to joy
• the stillness between inhale and exhale
• how breath helps calm the nervous system
• a guided 4-4-6-2 breath practice
• reconnecting to your Inner Eden through intention and presence

In this episode of Choosing Joy, Jodi Lynn Turpin talks about anger, what it may be revealing, and how we can begin to move through it with more awareness, compassion, and intention.

Anger is not something to ignore or shame. It is often a signal that something within us is asking to be seen, healed, changed, or understood more deeply. Jodi explores how anger can come from feeling hurt by behavior we would never choose ourselves, or from old wounds, learned responses, and past pain being stirred up again.

This episode is a gentle invitation to pause and ask: Why am I feeling this? Through prayer, reflection, empathy, healthy boundaries, and new habits, Jodi shares encouragement for anyone wanting to break old emotional loops and return to joy with a softer and wiser heart.

If anger has been showing up in your life lately, this conversation is a reminder that awareness is where change begins, and choosing differently is possible.

In this episode of Choosing Joy, Jodi Lynn Turpin sits down with Heather Sommer, also known as Gingy. Heather is the owner of Gingy’s Massage and has been a massage therapist since 2006, known for her loyal clientele, long waitlist, and the kind of care that helps people truly reset.

Jodi and Heather talk about the healing power of touch, the importance of self-care (especially for busy humans), and why laughter can be a full-body release. They also dive into Heather’s love of travel and retreats (Costa Rica is her happy place), plus those unforgettable “take the leap” moments that turn into the best stories later.

You’ll also hear about some of Heather’s favorite add-ons and offerings, including hot stones, sauna wrap sessions, “emotional support” oil application, a cooling face massage, tea tree back exfoliation, and a high frequency healing mat.

If you’ve been carrying a lot, this episode is a reminder: joy is often unplanned, your body deserves care, and sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is giggle and let yourself soften.
