Joyful Living

We frequently discuss all the yummy and beautiful emotions we typically think of as related to joy. As a culture we crave the highs and fear the lows. But, what if the highs and lows are both sides of the same coin? Today on Joyful Living we're flipping the coin to look at what to do when those big, nasty emotions surface. Our typical response can be to judge ourselves/others, fear the emotion (and then bury it), or distract ourselves from it (can also look like putting on a happy face and moving on). The invitation into greater joy requires us to experience and grow from both the highs AND the lows (and this doesn't necessarily mean learning what not to do from the lows).
