    The True Meaning of ‘Joy To the World’ And How To Survive the Holidays Safely


    We think of Joy as an emotion, a feeling, a cousin of delight. But its far deeper. Joy is the natural ground of existence which reveals itself as we heal trauma and transcend cultural programming. If you doubt this is true, look around at the joy inherent in all of nature and missing in only one place: the human verbal mind.


    In today’s episode you’ll learn:


    –What Joy REALLY is, and how its connected to trauma

    –How the holidays bury joy by obscuring safety

    -How to turn your triggers into game play, and put the FUN in Dysfunction


    If you’re ready to truly access JOY, regardless of the holidays, then this episode is for you.
