Joseph Campbell said, “Find a place inside where there’s joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.”. So many people come to me, obviously, because they’re upset about a situation. Sometimes it’s love, sometimes it’s money, sometimes it’s life or anything in between.

Also, sometimes, those situations are not fixable in the moment. There is no magic fairy dust to blow on the situation. There are no quick answers. However, if we can just find a few moments of joy, and EXHALE, things feel a little easier. I find that watching animals will, invariably, make me smile. It may not last long, but it’s that moment of joy. Dancing, singing, exercise, whatever it is that works for you, lean into that.

We’re heading into a Mercury Retrograde. Things are going to feel like they’re breaking down. Communications and machinery may actually break down. Things feel like they’re going backwards. Just re-member (spelled that way on purpose), this too shall pass!

Find your moment of joy. Lean into it. You deserve it!
