Hi,
I'm Jenny Mayo and welcome to this short joy cultivating guided visualization a Powerful practice that can reconnect us with the joy that's already inside us Through vivid visualization We're actually firing the same neurons that fire when we experience joy in our external lives And thus through this practice we can call up quote-unquote real joy So whether you're looking for a little or a lot more lift join me for this practice today Or use it for a period of time perhaps daily for a week to begin shifting your frequency toward more joy This meditation is a key practice in my four weeks to more joy course So if you enjoy it,
I encourage you to explore the other tools.
I shared there as well without further ado,
I Am finding a comfortable position for your body seated or lying down And closing the eyes if you like It's taking a few moments here to land right here right now in this moment healing your body in space Healing all the points of contact you're making with support whatever holds you up Maybe just taking a few Exhales to see if you can release a little bit more of your weight into the earth Running into your natural breath here and just watching a few inhales and exhales Pulling to mind now Just one small joy from your day today Be anything tiny Thing Person and interaction whatever comes to mind allowing all of the visuals and all of the other sensory details of this small joy To swell back into your mind now as if you are encountering it right now breathing in to this feeling This small sip of joy pulling to mind now any moment of greater joy that you've experienced in your lifetime a big moment a milestone a Celebration a cherished moment with a loved one any moment of great joy And if it's hard to think of one Maybe even imagining one a moment of ideal joy for yourself again Really picturing it as if you are in this moment right now And allowing any other sensory details To swell into your mind as well Breathe into the joy of this moment Asking yourself now Who am I when I am my most?
Joyful self Maybe adjectives come to mind or images Maybe you notice what you look like What facial expression you're wearing Maybe specific activities come to mind Just welcoming whatever arises Who am I when I am my most?
Joyful self Remembering that this self is You as a part of you and within you Just taking a few breaths Really feeling what this self feels Breathing as this self now Getting to deep in the breath now Taking your deepest fullest breath of the day now all the way deep into the belly down to the toes and gently releasing Remembering that joy is always inside us And we can find it around us even in small sips Thank you so much for meditating with me today
