I believe in a world of joy

I was recently participating in a gathering where we were invited to express what we believe in, in just a few words. I was curious about what would happen if I  said “I believe” and then just let the words flow freely and so I did. Although I cannot recreate that moment now, I know I said something along these lines…

I believe we are born into a field of love and joy. And I know that this love and joy is still within us.

I know that as we open to joy and allow it to flow in our  bodies, in our feelings, in our thoughts and in our hearts, we begin to shine. And as we shine we lit up other people as well, and they too begin to shine their joy.

And this is what’s going to happen! We are going to reconnect with joy as our true nature, and we’re going to reach each other this way. We’re going to see a new balance in the world.

I believe that. And I also know that joy is not in the future. It is right here and right now, ready to join us in a smile!

What do you believe?

From pain to joy – two Joy Keepers meet

I met Deb Svanefelt a little while ago. What I knew about her was that for many years she has been helping people with some of the most difficult cases of trauma and stress. Not what you’d call a joyful profession… And yet she is most definitely a Joy Keeper. How come? Watch below!

Here are some of the questions we pondered:

  • What is the difference between joy and happiness and why does it matter?
  • How come children are so joyful – and adults not so much?
  • What are the 3 main paths to joy?
  • Why do we need to meet our pain and shadows before we can live our joy?
  • What is a natural Joy Keeper?
  • What is the relationship between Love and Joy?
  • How can being an ambassador of Joy help our world?

And finally a question for you:
What in this conversation touched your heart the most?

Here are the resources mentioned in the interview:
