If you are as tired as Nicole and I are of being guarded off from the full, divinely-intended experience of joy, delight, and celebration then listen up! Here are two steps that you can take today to be fully immersed and present in your life:
- Savor: Savoring celebrates the ordinary. It helps us to capture and keep what our brain would be tempted to dismiss or call not good enough. Take a mental snapshot of a good thing that you don’t want to forget- an everyday ordinary thing. How do you feel in that moment? What do you smell? Ignite your senses and ingrain that snapshot to memory.
- Thanksgiving: It is no doubt that partaking in a spirit of thanksgiving increases our joy. While gratitude journals are great, Nicole challenges us to take a step further to actually express the gratitude that we feel towards someone to that person! Not only will it make their day, but it will double your own joy.
Friends, this barely even touches the surface of today’s episode! Nicole and I dive deep into all things joy, celebration, and performing our way into a place of false security!
Specifically:
- How to make celebration a discipline and rhythm in life even when celebrating feels hard
- The difference between engaging in celebration vs. escaping reality and how to know the difference
- Why journeys and quests are not the same and what they teach us
- The truth about anxiety and how to combat it
- Ways to implement celebration as a rhythm in your life instead of just considering it as a reward
So…
Are you ready to release your fears? To choose joy? Perhaps even to find the courage to (dare I even say it?!)…celebrate?!
Good! I can’t wait for you to dive in! Make sure to let me know which part of this episode spoke to your heart in the biggest way today!
Until next time!
