Amplify Joy (A Practice) with Jennifer England

The Tension of Emergence: Befriending the discomfort of slowing down to lead and thrive in uncertain times

Does joy sometimes feel hard to access? Ever find yourself focusing more on where you’re suffering or experiencing pain? Or perhaps you find it easy in this season of your life but want to experience joy even more?

In the last micro-episode of Season 3, Jennifer guides you to amplify joy on three different levels: the gross, subtle and causal. She encourages you to enhance the experience of joy, even amidst pain and includes a suggestion to explore the Buddhist practice of Tonglen if you’re facing difficult times.

If you play with this practice and have an insight you’d like to share, we’d love to hear from you!
