Little musing about the concept of joy on my walk today; joy is the feeling of pleasure & happiness.

And seemingly we aren't getting much in our lives! But repeated hits of joy award off stress & support our autonomic nervous system. Microdoses of joy or 'joy snacks' such as seeing a sun rise/set, noticing the taste of your coffee, or feeling the sun on your skin releases feel good hormones (dopamine & serotonin)!
People in fight or flight mode showed a decrease in sympathetic nervous system activity!

We often have a negative bias, but engaging in joy snacks can help rewire neural pathways & improve emotional & physical wellbeing!

What are your ? 🙂🌳

When you feel life is coming at you, pushing through won't help; instead take a moment to pause and look around you, notice 1 thing for 1 minute to reset your nervous system & find calm.

What do you notice? 🙂🌳
