Welcome to the second installment in my yearlong series on Joy Intelligence!
Each month, I’m introducing you to another facet of JQ so you can more easily tap into your own inner source of JOY. This time, we’ll be exploring the basics of the Chair of JOY® Experience, what it is, and why it’s such a powerful tool to enhance your JQ.
I actually featured it in the first installment of my 2024 yearlong series at the Wellness Universe, presenting Spiritual Practices for Mind, Body, Spirit Wholeness each month. Definitely review that video for a more detailed story of my JOY-full evolution.
Essentially, the Chair of Joy® (CoJ) is a physical and mental space designed for reflection, mindfulness, and personal empowerment. And while I’ll lead you through it in the video, it’s really accessible for anyone seeking a simple way to reset and regain balance in a chaotic world.
One of the many things I love about the CoJ experience is that it simplifies the process of accessing mental clarity, emotional balance, and overall well-being. It’s something you can do regularly, and it encourages consistent, intentional moments of self-reflection, which is sometimes hard to carve out in our busy lives.
Here are the four easy steps:
- Sit: Create space for presence and pause in the moment.
- Breathe: Calm the mind and reduce stress with intentional breathing.
- Think: Reflect on meaningful thoughts or gratitude.
- Feel: Connect to emotions to foster resilience and clarity.
When we tap into those uplifting moments or memories, it has a positive, visceral effect on our entire well-being, and there’s a body of research to support that (more on that next month!).
Specifically, the experience can improve focus and productivity, reduce stress and anxiety, and enhance emotional regulation and decision-making. A pretty powerful result for such a simple exercise.
You can watch the video below for your introduction to the Chair of JOY®, and experience it for yourself, then join me next month when we’ll look at the neuroscience that supports each step of this powerful process.
And finally, in the spirit of encouraging you to really engage with the JOY theme of the month, I invite you to start a Chair of Joy® journal (or maybe add to the JOY journal you began last month) and record the memory that came up for you in the CoJ I guided you through in the video. I’d love to hear about it, too.
