Joy is a simple thing.   I experience it every day when I let myself.   And there’s the rub. Most of us are actively pushing joy away. I know I did, for the longest time.   😱   Our houses are bigger, cars are better, fridges are fuller. Yet we are the most unhappy we have ever been.   Child and adolescent suicide and mental illness is through the roof. Anxiety disorders are rising.   We’re paying all our attention to making outer circumstances better, and expecting that to translate into inner happiness   But it doesn’t.   It just makes us hungry for more external stuff without ever quenching our deep need for happiness and joy.   Meanwhile, our inner lives are neglected and atrophied.   And that matters, because Joy arises inside you.   And it can’t arise unless we water and fertilise the ground within us.   Join me on the podcast as we explore how to grow joy!
