Awakening Joy
“Joy is not for just the lucky few – it’s a choice anyone can make.” – James Baraz, creator of the Awakening Joy course.
Awakening Joy is an internationally recognized course designed to awaken joy through exciting themes and practices that incline the mind toward well-being and deeper insight.
In this three-session online class series, you will learn the science behind generating real happiness, build healthier habits and beliefs through powerful awareness practices, develop a solid mindfulness practice, and become part of a community through class support and practice partners.
This is not a “feel good” program, but rather a “feel everything” program, leading to authentic appreciation of your life, just as it is. Class experience includes hands-on skill-building activities, lecture, small group interactive exercises, a book discussion, videos, guided meditation recordings, written material, experiential practices, singing, and joyful movement. As students, you will receive the opportunity to select the modes for learning that best suit you. To get the most out of the class experience, please be prepared to actively participate in breakout rooms, class discussions, and activities. By the end of the class, you will have the tools and skills you need to start living a more fulfilling, joyful life.
This class will not be recorded. Attendance requirement for incentive points – at least 80% of all 3 sessions.
