Part of
the healing journey for me is reducing stress and that means not only dealing
with the difficult bits but also fully experiencing joy.
As I have got older joy is no longer something I hope for but something I plan. As I open my eyes my mantra to start my day is
"I am creating joy in my life"
Joy is something I take time to savour. When I experience it the feeling cascades through my body as a feeling of well being.It is a massage from the mind.
On those days where joy feels so hard to find I pick up the cat and he will always oblige with a purr. That is my image of joy ... a purr with that full body contentment that joy brings ... which never disappoints.
As I fall into bed at the end of the day I reflect on '3 moments of joy' during the day. It reminds me of what makes me happy and makes me conscious to seek out those fleeting moments and savour them.
What brings you joy?
As I have got older joy is no longer something I hope for but something I plan. As I open my eyes my mantra to start my day is "I am creating joy in my life"
