If any of these is a YES!!!, this program is for you.

Joy is completely like the air, and at the same time it is completely unlike the air. Like the air, joy is vital to our existence and it is available to everyone regardless of circumstance.

Unlike the air, joy remains elusive for most of us. The reason joy remains elusive is that we confuse the permanent and transcendent state of joy with the transitory state of happiness. Because of this mistake we go after happiness instead of joy. We study the law of attraction. We try to think positively. We try to hold on to pleasurable experiences while pushing away and fearing those experiences that are not pleasurable. This pushing away and pulling is what keeps us from being at peace, keeps us from seeing with clarity, and keeps us from joy.

The habits that create this problem are entrenched and pervasive in every area of life. The Joy Program is designed to give you the skills to change those habits so you get the joy that is naturally yours anyway.

The Joy Program develops 5 Joy skills:

1. The skill of pure stillness and relaxation (even when in motion or stressful situations

2. The skill of graceful internal receptivity for what life presents you

3. The skill of confident and effective use of your internal guidance system (discern the difference between emotional impulse and intuitive messages)

4. The skill of sustained focus beyond what is considered normal

5. The skill of constant recognition of the goodness and mystery of it all

You can expect these 20 results:

1. Feel free to just BE, and hang out in the stillness

2. Fearlessly give your gifts to the world, and reap the rewards for doing so

3. Develop skills that feed your spirit, mind, body, business and relationships

4. Possess higher levels of clarity, vitality, and creativity

5. Attract enriching relationships and situations

6. Become more energized to make and save money

7. Integrate divergent areas of your life for balance and extra energy

8. Sleep better than ever

9. Go on more daring adventures

10. Be a most valuable change agent in the world

11. Experience humanity in deeper, more meaningful ways

12. Recognize the opportunities right in front of you

13. Express yourself from your heart of power

14. Become your own teacher

15. See life with baby eyes while enjoying your adult skillfulness

16. Tap into the secret to stay young for the rest of your life

17. Get things done with less stress

18. Trust in the invisible, unknown forces that predominate your life

19. Be at home in any environment

20. Discern how to go with the flow that is for your highest good

I. Special JOY Urban Retreats

This is a chance to put it all aside and focus on the truly important stuff!

Those who have attended a group JOY experience know that there is nothing like basking in the brilliance of a bright group of awakened loving people to move you to levels of JOY and MASTERY you didn't’t know were possible!

Joy Experience Retreats make the difference!

Immersion Works. Thousands of years of monastic experience must be right somehow! It is just that when you put yourself in a new environment that focuses exclusively on JOY and AWARENESS you experience the potential of joy and awareness in your life in ways that are simply not imaginable!

You Completely Reset Your Mental Computer. A retreat offers you the chance to get a completely new perspective on your life while refueling your tank. Think of it as the best possible vacation, because once the trip is over, not only do you feel great, but you also get to bring the skills you learned back into your life making your life resemble the vacation you just returned from.

A Retreat accelerates your awakening into pure JOY. When a group of awakening people come together to support each other’s awakening a beautiful culture of stillness begins to develop. The energy of stillness and awareness becomes so thick in these retreats that you can cut it like a knife. When you simply soak it in you automatically transform. There is simply no substitute for this.

The others are a mirror for you. “It becomes easier to see ourselves when we are reflected in each other. Each time someone in the group faces a challenge, or a success, it provides an opportunity for us to see our own version of that challenge or success in ourselves. With this mirror, hidden aspects within ourselves that would otherwise stay buried a long time are revealed”. (From ‘Unveiling the Heart’ by Mark Silver)

A group provides accountability. “If you make a commitment to yourself, and it’s witnessed by others, it makes it a lot easier to keep that commitment. And, if you don’t come through on the commitment? The group helps you examine dropped commitments from a compassionate place to decide if a particular commitment is right for you, and help you explore what else you might need to make the follow-through possible.” (From ‘Unveiling the Heart’ by Mark Silver)
