Can you believe that I actually didn’t like the Joy essential oil blend when I first smelt it? Well they do say that the essential oils you don’t like you obviously need lol.
I’ve found myself really reflecting lately on Joy. I had been feeling like I have lost the joy and I’ve working on getting it back. A question that I’ve been asking myself is “How am I living in and finding joy in all things”? I’ve come to realise that Joy, like happiness doesn’t happen to us. We can create joy within us through our beliefs, thoughts, words, actions and habits.
“Your beliefs become your thoughts,
This quote is attributed to Mohatma Gandhi:
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.”
Think about your life for a moment. What brings you joy? Do you know? Are you aware of what makes you happy? Do you live in the present or are you holding onto an image of what life will be like “someday” when you are happy?
What is Joy?
Joy is a feeling in the present moment, not something you will have in the future. Sarah Ben Breathnach was so right when she said “learning to live in the present moment is part of the path of joy.”
The dictionary defines joy as “the emotion of great delight or happiness caused by something exceptionally good or satisfying; keen pleasure; elation”.
True joy comes from your inner-self and living life to the fullest. It is important that you allow yourself to feel joy and when those joyful moments come, savor them! Each moment of our life is a gift. As you look for the joy in your life, you will find it.
Joy essential oil blend is a great place to start. Simply by picking up the bottle we can choose to believe in ‘Joy’, think ‘Joy’ and we can even set an intention to be more joyous each and every day. In time these beliefs, thoughts and words will impact your actions, habits, values and your destiny.
Imagine diffusing this oil blend, taking in all of its aroma while sitting quietly, meditating about all that you have to be joyful about in your life. This blend will produce a magnetic energy to bring joy to your heart, mind, and soul.
