Joy is a forgotten emotion

When everything in life is too serious & we can’t find pleasure, depression & withdrawal can set in.

Human connection is such a vital need.

Quick question, what are the top three most joyful memories that you have?
………..

How many of those memories involve you with other people?
………..

When we haven’t healed yet, especially as adults, we forget how important people can be in our lives.

When our relationships bring us down more than lift us up, we feel like it’s a fight for love…all..the..damn…time.

When we can’t find balance & alignment, it’s either all or nothing. All in or fold. No middle ground.

Joy is a forgotten emotion, not because it doesn’t exist, because we are conditioned to think that’s true.
That’s the way that our relationships have told us life should be.

We experience really high highs or really low lows.

Joy is definitely found in the high, but more sustained joy is found in the gap, in the balance.

It’s hard being around people but also feeling lonely.

That shows up as:
Really really wanting to just be happy, but can’t seem to figure it.
Wanting to experience joyous love, but being scared when it gets too close.
Deep deep withdrawal & disconnection during the low lows.

Hey love, you can heal this.

Healing your wounded self at the root cause allows you to open up to your self-love.

The secret? Healing alone is like trying to carry a 500lb bag up a mountain when you have the option of letting a guide carry some of that for you.

When you open up to your self-love, the relationships, in all forms, begin to fulfill your life’s purpose.

Your life’s purpose is easy, graceful, serene, & joyful.
It is full of love & belonging & safety.

It is so so so so close, I can feel it.

In big love,
