Hi there. I'm happy to see a whole conference on joy! I am an Osteopath who works with people living with chronic pain and also live with pain myself. In my pain care program there is an emphasis on curiosity and joy. Life can be challenging but there are moments of joy all around us and when we allow ourselves to be open to seeing them, it can shift our state of mind. We can also create moments of joy for ourselves and others. The changes can be profound when you allow your choices to be guided by joy.
