Why Building Mental Health Habits Before Crisis Hits Changes Everything

The article explores Brightn’s evidence-based approach to whole-life wellness—integrating health, wealth, and purpose through journaling, mindfulness, and personalized AI guidance. With science-backed insights from habit formation and behavioral psychology, it shows how prevention becomes effortless when supported by systems, not motivation.
