There are many things humans have in common and moving toward joy and happiness is at the top of the list. We all desire to be and feel positive. And, the best part is that your joy creates more joy! Science has proven that just being in the presence of someone who is feeling positively about their life or experience can impact your mood.  You may recall a dear friend who comforted you after a big setback or a brief moment with a stranger’s uplifting energy that shifted your outlook for the rest of the day. This is joy in action. 

So now to the important question… Just how do you go about being more joyful in your life? 

By Linda Ford PhD. Once upon a time there was a brain, well cultivated and powerful. This particular brain had a transport system called a human body. But really, the brain thought it was the whole deal. So this human being was really more of a human doing. Much got accomplished in this way and the brain was satisfied. And yet…That’s pretty much how I lived my live for decades. Through a series of personal retreats, I began to see the potential to become more of a full Human Being instead of just a Human Doing. A consistent meditation practice helped bring me more present to that reality.

By Sharon Johnson. I battled with my weight throughout my school years and beyond. Being overweight not only affected my health but my happiness, self-esteem, feelings of self-worth, and connection with myself. When I got to college, I became aware of the possible consequences of my diet and lifestyle. I knew if I continued down the same path, I would not have the health and happiness that I deserved.
