Remember the Basics

Today’s guest is Jason Doorish and we’re talking about remembering the basics when it comes to joy. Jason is a Licensed Professional Counselor and he’s an expert on bringing mindfulness into the day every day. He reminds us that often the best things in life are the simplest and we all could benefit from chilling out a bit more and taking life less seriously wherever possible. When it comes to intentional joy he recommends starting where you are and operating from the understanding that we all have more power than we think over the situations life throws at us.

A few tips to remember:

  1. When you start on this path. It’s ok to fail.  Know that you won’t have a perfect plan but be on the look out for things you can commit to.
  2. Build a life step by step that promotes joy. Get enough sleep, eat breakfast and take naps!
  3. It’s not just one thing but each practice strung to the next that helps to create a sense of expansion and joy.
  4. Accept that you’re going to have bad days. Good emotions and bad emotions come and go.
  5. Be open to figuring out what your small joys are and then pursue them. 
  6. Remember to be Self-Full
