Joy isn't about perfection or fake positivity – it's about finding deep soul satisfaction even in the midst of chaos. We explore the power of intentional joy practices and how they can transform our experience, even on the hardest days.
• Joy differs from happiness – it's deeper and not circumstantial
• Harvard study shows people who focus on joy are 30% more likely to report higher life satisfaction
• Personal joy practices include music to combat overstimulation, sunshine breaks, and gratitude journaling
• Joy is a choice we must make daily, especially during difficult times
• Quick "joy reset": step outside barefoot, close eyes, breathe deeply, and think of one grateful moment
