Laugh So Hard You Almost Pee (But Maybe Don’t): Joy Returns

Ready to feel good without apologizing for it? We’re kicking off season two by reclaiming joy as a vital form of healing rather than a reward you have to earn. I share why so many high-capacity givers learned to sideline joy, how vigilance masquerades as virtue, and what shifts when we treat joy as embodied ease that can live right alongside grief, uncertainty, and real responsibilities.

We unpack the difference between happiness and joy—event-driven highs versus a steady, body-based resonance—and explore why joy can feel impractical or even unsafe when your nervous system has been trained to scan for danger. Then we get practical. I guide you through a short, gentle attunement with hand on heart and belly, longer exhales, and the simple question, where does ease live in my body right now? You’ll learn how tiny somatic cues like swaying, rocking, and softening the jaw invite safety faster than any pep talk, and why one extra breath in a moment of ease rewires more than you think.

We also talk about curiosity and laughter as medicine. From following a small “what if” to watching a contagiously funny video, these micro-moments of delight regulate your system and ripple out to everyone around you. Joy is not bypassing; it stabilizes you, improves decision-making, and strengthens resilience for hard seasons. You’ll leave with two mantras to anchor your practice—I allow myself to feel good without guilt, I am safe to feel joy—and a simple daily assignment to notice where your body softens and stay there one breath longer.
