Joy is something innate to each human being. There is no need to go in search of it.I need to remember that under all my worry, my thinking, my processing, that it is there lying dormant and waiting for me to access it.I need to remember to:

find gratitude for what I'm capable of (it guides me),
find joy in the work I choose to labor over (it feeds me),
the journey I'm on (that enlightens me),
the people in my life (that nourish me),
the difficulties I have (that teach me),
the uncomfortable emotions I have when I'm learning (they wake me up).

/This post-series is about trying to anchor my experience by exploring within and reminding myself about what it means to practice "good humaning." It's about moving forward imperfectly. To follow this thread in my posts, look for these tags: #NotesFromMyYogaJournal
