How to have more joy in your life

In this episode of Someone Get Me, we delve into joyful living and provide six steps to achieve it. Her six steps are not complicated but take a lot of practice. Joy is our natural inner state and our essence. It is an animated state behind us. Joy is who we are. 

Anything like stress, strife, anger, and fear are altered in her mind. However, we have been trained to listen to our reptilian brain, causing us to be disconnected from our essence. 

For many generations, we have been paying the price of being disconnected from our essence, which is joy. Joy is about the amazing flow of life, and it is not the same as happiness. Joy is like a thermostat, while happiness is like a thermometer. 

Some people have a low set point for joy because they don't realize it can feel joyful or think it's a sin. Everyone's essence is joy, even those who do despicable things, and their despicable actions come from lies and deception they say to themselves and think.

We encourage listeners to peel away the lies we tell ourselves, eliminating the ways of being that separate us from who we are. Consider Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, Ode to Joy. Just like an orchestra with all the different instruments playing their role and bringing together this beauty, this joy, that's how we are. 

Our work is to get all our instruments and parts of us to play, cooperate, and work together for that joyful experience in the face of contemplation, stress, and all different things.

Remember that Beethoven never heard his music. Meaning he did not let external validation or feedback affect his creative process. Find joy in living, not just in the outcome. When we connect with our essence, we can stand in our sovereignty as a unique being and live more joyfully.

Here are the six steps to have more joy in your life. 

1. Jettison - anything that is not serving your highest good. Anything that is in the way needs to be released. Bringing the past into the future gets in the way of joy. 

2. Omit worry - Worry is focusing our mind on what can go wrong. When we worry about tomorrow, we waste today. 

3. Yield - to our higher knowingness. There is perfect timing for everything. 

4. Focus on excellence - Excellence and perfection are different. Excellence means I'm open-minded, always willing to learn, and know there's always more. Perfectionism often stems from fear.

5. Use your talents to serve - Sometimes, our angst or separation is because we are not serving. We often think that serving is the same as giving. There is different consciousness because you can throw money at something or give away your stuff, but service means I'm doing it with that inner presence of unconditional love. 

6. Laugh - We raise our field when we laugh and play. Laughter helps us bring more joy to the world. It helps us let that part of us out.

Remember that joy and joyful living lives in like the eternal present moment. That's how we maintain joy, always living in the present moment.
