Joy & Connection Kit

Deep Dive into the Joy & Connection Kit

The Open Heart

There are times when the heart grows quiet from hesitation. We want to connect, but something inside holds back, unsure if warmth will be returned.

This kit is an invitation to open again.

To let yourself be seen and to remember that joy is not a rush of excitement, but the steady flame of being fully alive.

When Fire is balanced, it becomes compassion. Love that radiates outward while staying rooted at the center simultaneously. As you create, you begin to learn how to tend to this flame and you begin giving it breath and space.

In time, you see that you are learning how to offer warmth without losing your own shape.

The Practice Guide

Representative Color
Red - vibrant, strong, and full of life. A reminder that joy is both bold and tender.

Guiding Question
Who or What brings me Joy?

Emotional Landscape
Balanced: joyful, compassionate, grounded in love
Fire Heightened: anxious, overextended, craving approval
Fire Diminished: withdrawn, guarded, afraid of intimacy

Design Invitation
Before arranging, take a deep breath and sense your heartbeat.
If your energy feels scattered, slow down & choose fewer blooms and let stillness guide your hands.
If you feel closed off, reach for flowers that open wide. Let them teach your body how it feels to unfold.

Color & Texture Ideas
Red, crimson, coral, and soft blush tones.
Pair open-faced flowers: dahlias, zinnias, poppies, or roses, with light, feathery textures that let air and space circulate through the design.

When to Use
When joy feels dimmed, when anxiety overshadows connection, or when the heart needs help remembering how to trust warmth again.
