May we be free to breathe, dream, speak, move, rest, gather and grow.

Who Am I?
My name is Jordan and I’m just a INFJ, Generator, Leo ☀, Virgo ↑, and Libra ☽ girl in her 20 somethings (thank you, SZA). You can probably tell a recent hobby I’ve picked up is finding methods to self-evaluate! I say that jokingly, but I have enjoyed taking the past few years to grow my self-awareness, learn my likes and dislikes, how I function, and discover my passions. I love hiking, astrology, singing, dancing to many different types of music, watching Disney and Marvel, and baking when stressed. I’m a girl with many talents, but I find it most fulfilling to use my knowledge and experiences to help others, something I hope to achieve with The Divine Vitality.
Why Create The Divine Vitality?
At the beginning of my freshman year of college in 2016, I was intent on quickly becoming an educator to the future generations of this planet, but was unprepared for the major upheavel the year actually had in store for me and my mental health. Those previous life plans were put to an indefinite halt when I started experiencing major episodes of depression, mania, paranoia, and derealization. I was given a range of diagnoses, started attending therapy, and experimented with many different medications and supplements to figure out how to best support my mind and body.
The first few years following were spent in and out of psychiatric units because I couldn’t figure out how to accept and adjust to such a drastic change in my life. I constantly searched for something or someone to provide me with specific direction; insight on how to heal and grow as a person as well as ease the transition into adult life. It felt frustrating to hear the same advice recycled over and over without any specifics or direction on how to actually achieve them. This traumatic experience is what started my growth and healing journey, as well as inspiring me to create The Divine Vitality to share the wisdom I’ve since gained.
I’ve spent years developing my coping mechanisms, rewiring my brain, and doing deep introspection to improve my health and overall happiness. Gradually implementing positive changes in my lifestyle and routine has opened my perspective, strengthened my self-identity, and helped me find my spiritual faith. It’s contributed to my resilience, my ability to hold myself accountable, and a deeper understanding of how to better support our bodies, minds, and spirits.
One of the biggest lessons I learned is that you are never alone, and if you can’t find what you’re looking for, then create it for yourself!
