COURSE
Cultivate Joy Each Day
With Melanie Lopes
If you’re looking for ways to bring more joy, peace, and fulfillment into your life, this is the course for you. Through five daily lessons, you’ll be guided through an exploration of joy, with meditations and exercises for tapping into the joy within you, along with suggestions for how to experience joy more often so that you can make joy a regular part of your life. By the end of the course, you will be more tuned in to the joy that is available to you, and you’ll discover that joy is more than just a temporary burst of happiness - it’s a mindset and a state of being that can permeate every aspect of your life. You’ll understand how joy can help you navigate challenges and times of uncertainty, improve your interactions and relationships, offer you hope and perspective, and serve as a guide that keeps you in alignment with what’s most important to you. You'll be inspired to continue finding ways to cultivate joy, making joy a regular practice that you can carry forward beyond this course. I look forward to sharing this with you, and I invite you to join me so you can begin your journey to a more joyful life.

I’ve always thought that children are born with a sense of wonderment and somewhere along the way I’ve lost that. This course reminded me of that loss and gave me ways to regain joy in my life. Excellent course that I will come back to often.

One affirmation resonated with me "Success is not the key to my joy, joy is the key to my success." The cultivation of joy is so important. I will continue to embrace joy in the little things and begin everyday within a joyous flow.

Lovely and beautiful reminder that joy is accessible to us all and that we are the creators of our own joy. The short and simple meditations and exercises in this course are powerful reminders of this. Thank you!

Fantastic course with realistic affirmations. I hope this presenter does a series of 5-10 min quick access joy recordings to add to our daily pop shot joy routines including funky dance music, to help us all get up out of our mud and into our blossoming lotus selves when we struggle to see the light. Thank you for this course. Australia.

I both enjoyed and was challenged by this course. I certainly am happy to have done it and I will keep coming back to it. It’s deep and light at the same time. It’s caused me to reflect on my life and take positive deliberate steps in dealing with some parts of my life that I had left in the past. I am grateful. May you be blessed Mel
