What does it mean to pursue happiness? Do you find yourself seeking it out, hunting it down, only to find it momentarily and then begin the search again? It is easy to get caught in this cycle, but there is another way. Today, as I welcome you into Circle, we will consider this pursuit, what happiness means to you, and we will examine the collective ache of happiness that our culture is experiencing. I invite you into this time to be curious, to stay playful, to open yourself up to the opportunity to learn. I have sat with the weight of this topic, and now I bring it to you: let's dive in together and question what happiness means to our body, our mind, and our essence so we can let go of the ache of pursuing and start enjoying being. 

I'm sharing: 

• The connection between the pursuit of happiness and the nationalism that is present in our culture today
• Why laying down our knowledge and breaking apart our long-held understanding of certain words can help us in our practice 
• How to reframe the notion of the "right to happiness"
• Why the angst of consuming and distracting may not be amounting to happiness for you
• The difference between practicing vs. chasing and catching vs. seeking
• How we can face our fears of not having and find gratitude 
• An inviting meditation meant to help you connect to your own definitions of happiness and answer the questions of what feels happy for your mind, body, and essence
