FOMO Detox for Mums: Building Joyful Boundaries & Making JOMO Your New Normal

What if missing out was actually the best thing for you?

In this final part of the JOMO series, we explore what happens when the joy of missing out becomes part of who you are. You will learn how every calm choice rewires your brain, why boundaries are not personality traits but skills and how to build your own JOMO Jar to make calm a daily habit.

📋 What we covered:

• A welcome back and reflection on the past two JOMO episodes.
• How repeated thoughts keep the nervous system in overdrive and what science says about rewiring through repetition.
• A recap of neuroplasticity and how every calm choice creates new “habit highways” in your brain.
• The truth about boundaries as learned skills and how to practise them safely.
• Practical boundary tools including “No Scripts”, “Pause Texts” and listening to your body’s cues.
• The creation of the JOMO Jar as a way to celebrate small wins and see your calm choices in action.
• Real-life examples of how JOMO shifts friendships, work and daily life from comparison to contentment.
• A story about how loss and change can create space for deeper, more aligned connections.
• A reminder that saying no creates space for rest, alignment, and joy, while rewiring your brain for calm.

🌟 Key takeaways:

• Boundaries are a practice that teaches your body safety and calm.
• Each time you honour your energy, you strengthen your brain’s pathway to peace.
• The JOMO Jar helps you make calm visible and celebrates every small, steady step.
• Saying no with kindness creates space for what truly matters.
• Calm becomes your new normal when you practise it, not when you plan it.
