Healing Through Feeling

40 Days of an Intentional and Specific Covenant with Consciousness
Documented by Brooke Ranvek

I created the Beauty Code Way and this communion with Consciousness not because I have everything together or because I’m perfect—far from it. I created it for those times when my patterns resurface, those persistent ones that keep showing up, reminding me there’s still something to learn, a choice to make, or a boundary to set.

It’s for the moments I want to run and hide, to ignore or pretend my problems will disappear if I just try harder to be a better person. Of course, I’m highly aware when my conditioning kicks in. As I continue to remember who I am, I discover more and more about myself—things I no longer want to hold on to. But if I can see the patterns, why can’t I just make them disappear with a single thought?

Through the deeper work I’ve done, exploring the seven-year cycles of my life and voyaging through each phase, I’ve found the key: remembering. Being human is hard, and conflict is inevitable because it’s through conflict that our patterns surface, especially in our relationships.

Committing to this journey means allowing my inner child to revisit those one-to-seven-year-old lessons still calling to be learned. It also means letting my inner teenager act out sometimes—irrational and immature—only to feel sorry later. And that’s okay because the only way out is through.

If I suppress anything—thinking I can bypass these lessons, all wrapped up in anger, greed, selfishness, or reactivity—I miss the entire purpose of soul growth. Suppression doesn’t free us. And when we start prioritizing ourselves and setting boundaries, unresolved conflict is bound to emerge. The voyage must be taken.

I’ve had to take it, too. I have tools that help, but transformation truly begins when I become aware of my old behaviors—fight, flight, freeze, or numbness—and the chain of events leading up to them. Even when the process feels messy, it’s all part of the healing journey, no matter how imperfect or off-track it may seem.

This phase of spirituality teaches me that spirituality doesn’t make me a saint. I’m a wounded human in a wounded vessel, living in a collective field of deep wounds—every wound ever felt. The more honest I become with myself during those moments of frustration, anger, sadness, or pain, the more I realize: these emotions hold the treasure.

It’s in these hidden places we find communion with God or our highest self. Becoming a humble spiritual human is often painful; it’s not all rainbows and sunshine. But the more you move through the pain, the more you realize those rainbows are waiting on the other side of the lesson. You stop short-changing yourself emotionally and dive headfirst into the richness of growth, knowing it’s all happening for you.

The more I surrender to my path, the more I allow myself to make mistakes—the kind I used to avoid in my effort to be perfect, keep everyone happy, and prevent conflict. But conflict is where growth happens. Sometimes we need to embrace being imperfect humans, allowing those buried parts of us to rise to the surface and be released.

As a woman and a mom, I often feel the urge to control situations to protect everyone, including myself. But healing doesn’t work that way. Sometimes I have to step back, let others react as they need to, and trust they will find their own lessons. “Hurt people hurt people,” as the saying goes. The only way to heal is to feel.

And this, my friends, is where the Beauty Code Way comes in. I teach about the Universe of Forgiveness—a dimension beyond our challenges. It takes practice to forgive yourself deeply, to install forgiveness in your cells. That’s where we gain wisdom, strength, and the truth of what it means to be human. It’s not about finding reasons for everything but about clearing and cleansing the wounds stored in us by living life—by facing our challenges and conflicts with an open heart.

Through this process, we remember that we are already everything we need to be. Life’s waves may batter us, but with reflection, we can see that we are pure, created, and loved. Belief comes from living as the flawed human you are—over and over. Making mistakes, hurting others, bending boundaries, falling short of your own expectations, and yet continuing to allow, accept, and embrace these experiences. This is how we remember that Divine Source Love loves us no matter what.

This resilience—falling, rising, and walking through life with God by our side—is the definition of radiance. It’s not about perfection but about the willingness to keep going, knowing that every stumble is part of your growth.

May this bring a glimmer of hope to your wounded self, knowing that being spiritual means facing the truth of your wounds, our collective wounds, and the sacred wound. Your responsibility is to dig deep, get messy, and rise again. Even if it’s not pretty, even if there’s cleanup to do afterward, it’s all for you.

Bye for now,

Your Biology is Your Biography: Why Repressed Emotions are Killing Us
By Brooke Ranvek

Have you ever felt like your body was betraying you? Maybe you’re dealing with chronic pain, fatigue, or a mysterious illness, and no matter what you do, it feels like your body is working against you. I’ve been there, and through my own journey—and the work I’ve done with the Beauty Code Way—I’ve learned something profound: our biology is our biography.

This means the body you live in today isn’t just shaped by your diet or exercise routine. It’s shaped by the stories you’ve lived, the emotions you’ve buried, and the patterns you’ve inherited. What’s more, many of these stories are so deeply conditioned by societal systems that we don’t even realize we’re living them. And for women, in particular, this can literally be life-threatening.

What Happens When We Repress Emotions

Let me break it down. When we repress emotions—whether it’s anger, sadness, grief, or fear—those feelings don’t just disappear. They get stored in the body. Science now shows that unprocessed emotions affect us on a cellular and biochemical level, and the consequences are devastating.

• Stress Chemistry: Suppressing emotions keeps your body in a constant state of stress. This means your brain signals your body to produce stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline over and over again. Over time, this damages your cells, weakens your immune system, and increases inflammation. Chronic stress is linked to everything from autoimmune diseases to cancer.
• Epigenetics: Here’s where it gets even more fascinating. Emotional suppression doesn’t just impact your body in the present—it can alter your genes. Epigenetics has shown us that the way our genes express themselves is influenced by our emotional and environmental experiences. This means your repressed emotions could not only affect you but also be passed down to future generations.
• Cellular Memory: Your body holds onto the past in ways your conscious mind can’t always access. That’s why suppressed emotions often show up as physical symptoms—digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, or chronic pain—even when you’re not consciously aware of the root cause.

Your Stories Are Shaping Your Health

When I say, "your biology is your biography," I mean that the stories you’ve lived—and even the ones you’ve inherited—are written into your body. And here’s the thing: most of us don’t even know the full story we’re telling ourselves.

We’ve been conditioned by societal systems to prioritize productivity, perfection, and pleasing others. For women, this often looks like sacrificing our own needs to keep the peace, take care of others, or meet impossible standards. These narratives are so deeply ingrained that we often don’t recognize them as stories—they just feel like life.

But these hidden stories are the ones keeping us stuck. They’re the ones telling us to ignore our bodies, repress our emotions, and push through the pain. And until we unravel them, we’re trapped in a cycle of self-neglect that’s not just affecting our mental health—it’s killing us.

Healing the Wounds We Can’t See

Here’s where it gets personal. Through my own journey, I’ve learned that healing doesn’t happen by ignoring these stories or suppressing the emotions tied to them. It happens when we bring them into the light, feel them fully, and let them teach us.

The Beauty Code Way is my framework for doing exactly this. It’s about unraveling the hidden stories that shape our biology, releasing the emotions we’ve buried, and rewriting the narrative at a cellular level. It’s not easy work, but it’s the only way to create the biology—and the life—you desire.

How I’ve Seen This Play Out in My Own Life

In my journal entry earlier, I wrote about noticing patterns in myself—the same ones I’ve been working on for years. Sometimes, I feel frustrated. Why are these issues still here? Why can’t I just think my way out of them?

But then I remember: this is the process. As I continue to do the work, I’m peeling back layers of conditioning, inherited trauma, and societal expectations. And every time I do, I uncover another piece of myself.

I’ve also learned that emotions like anger, sadness, and even shame aren’t things to run from. They’re invitations. When I sit with them, instead of suppressing them, I can feel them move through my body. This is where the transformation happens—not in thinking about the wounds but in feeling them and letting them go.

Why This Work is Urgent for Women

For so many women, the repression of emotions isn’t just metaphorically killing us—it’s literally leading to diseases and chronic conditions. The societal systems we live in weren’t designed for us to thrive; they were designed to keep us small, quiet, and compliant. Breaking free from this requires us to rewrite the narrative entirely.

This is what the Beauty Code Way is all about. It’s about transforming judgment into curiosity and self-love. It’s about creating a body you love, not one you feel like a victim to. It’s about developing emotional intelligence so you can work with your feelings instead of being overwhelmed by them.

The Biology You Desire

When you begin unraveling your hidden stories and healing your repressed emotions, everything changes. Your body starts to shift. Chronic symptoms can improve. Your energy returns. You stop fighting your emotions and start listening to what they’re telling you.

You realize that your body isn’t your enemy—it’s your greatest teacher.

So, if you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like your body is betraying you, take this as your invitation to dig deeper. Start unraveling the stories you’re living and begin creating the biology you truly desire. This is the work that changes everything—not just for you, but for the generations that come after you.

Here’s to the Beauty Code Way and the path we’re all walking together.

With love,
Brooke
