Joie de Vivre

Do you want more joy in your life?

We live in troubled times. Who knows what the future holds? The narrative of despair, fear, lack, antagonism, impending catastrophe grows with every newscast. Yet deep down we know that another future is possible. And the future begins in the present moment. Only by living in trust, faith, beauty, and joy can we create the future we want.

The joy of living is multiplied when it is shared. But this is not the joy of a crowd at a football match when their team scores or the false happiness of a TV advert. True joy is possible only when we acknowledge and accept the pain of living—grief, fear, rage, sorrow. Sometimes it is easier to do
this in the company of compassionate friends.

Join us to share stories, sing songs, sit quietly together, walk on the sacred earth, or even dance. Who knows what magic might happen? Let’s discover together what joy we can create.
