Mindfulness of joy.
The purpose of this meditation is to fully experience and savor positive moments.
Sit comfortably and close your eyes.
Bring to mind a recent moment of joy,
However small.
We often rush past positive experiences without truly savoring them.
Mindfulness isn't just for difficult moments.
It deepens joy,
Too.
Recall that joyful moment.
What made it joyful?
Where did you feel it in your body?
Perhaps lightness in your chest.
A smile on your face.
Warmth in your heart.
Stay with this feeling.
Breathe into it.
Let it expand.
This is savoring.
Prolonging positive experience through mindful attention.
Research shows that savoring increases happiness and resilience.
You're training your brain to notice and appreciate good moments.
Throughout your day,
When something pleasant happens,
A good coffee,
A kind word,
Sunshine,
Pause and savor it mindfully.
Carry this joyful energy with you.
Remember,
Joy is always available in small moments.
Open your eyes.
