Cultivating Happiness And Purim

How do we allow ourselves to enter into a state of happiness? The holiday of Purim tells us that when we enter into the month of Adar,
joy increases, and "we can rest when our enemies are defeated". What about our internal enemies-automatic habits and behavior? The mindful practice called STOP cultivates our ability to pause and observe our thoughts, sensations, and feelings, which can allow us to respond in more healthy ways, and also to be more connected to what we are experiencing in the present moment and connect to joy.
