How would you like a buffer from the pressure and stress of the economy and the holidays?

Or a warm light to counteract growing cold and diminishing sunlight?

If your answer is yes, please accept my gift of 21 Days of Joy!

This is a series of free guided meditations to help you find the light of confidence and inspiration; peace that trumps any expense, relative or deadline; and joy that bubbles over into gratitude, creativity and prosperity.

With a group of daily listeners, the initial Joy Tribe,  this series was created in November 2010, but I’m leaving it online for you to enjoy and share with your friends because every day is a good day to be joyful!

I hope you will join in this adventure in joy. As Mahatma Gandhi said, “Be the change you want to see.” The more we can each embody joy, the more joyful a world we can create together.

I recommend that everyone listen to Day One where we establish the tree of joy, a portal to all the joyful places we will travel for 21 Days. Additionally there are other key meditations: The Big Door and the Sea of Possibilities. Ideally you’ll devote 21 days and listen to them in sequence. I’d love to hear your comments here about what you notice as a result of taking this adventure in joy!

To your endless joy!
Jane

If you had a special dog in your life that this meditation made you think about again, you may enjoy reading the book Racing in the Rain. It’s a quick read and very sweet, told from the dog’s point of view.

If you live in Central Oregon be sure to make a trip to the High Desert Museum to see the butterfly exhibit after listening to this meditation. The exhibit will be there till the first of the year and the butterflies will actually land on you! It will help you anchor the experience described in this meditation that allows you to shift your attention from problems to joy.

Ed Endsley created this painting. Ed says, “Light and freedom emerging out of darkness. This is what our many sessions have meant to me and so much more. Even when I visit the dark side I know where the light is and seek it out because I know it’s there and available at any time, anywhere… And now I remember to share and encourage as much as I am able…”  Thank you, Ed!

Thanks to Matilde Konigsberg for her beautiful poem

Whispering Secrets   (To Katya…)

I once was a tree

A divine green beast!

This is how it all happened:

I crawled into your trunk

You swallowed me up

You drank my skin

And turned it into leaves

Once I was a tree

I made love to the wind

I caressed the birds

I spoke to the Divine.

I reached out to touch the sky

I danced with the squirrels

I listened to the lovers whisper

Words

Promises

I breathed in their love

I embraced them with my skin

Woman

Tree

Bird

Squirrel

I stood still drinking from the moon

I let my roots run free into the creek

I was not wearing shoes

I did not care

I bathed in the morning mist

I faced the sun and laugh

Because I was a tree

Woman, bird, squirrel

And I was free

Sometimes I stood in silent meditation

Observing the rhythms of the earth

I learned

To recognize

The scent of God

   What a wonderful thing that like minded individuals can explore and experience! Thank you all and thank you Jane for being our inspired and skilled Tribal Leader!!! Let the adventures continue!

   My conscious awareness is informed by contrasts. Contrasts in good and not so; judgments based on happiness. The things that attract and repel. My spirit soars when I am reminded of our shared humanity and the beauty and hope in our journey. I know what my choice will be today! Best wishes! I’ll see you along the way! Ed
