Episode 091: I Welcome Joy Into My LifeWelcome back to 24/7 Self Affirmations. I'm so glad you're here.Today, we're exploring something that can feel almost scary to want — joy. Not the big, dramatic kind. The quiet, everyday kind. The kind that lives in a warm cup in your hands, in a song you love coming on the radio, in the smile that sneaks up when you're not watching.So many of us have gotten so used to surviving, to pushing through, to holding it together. And somewhere along the way, we forgot that we are allowed to feel good. That joy is not a reward for suffering. That it is something you are allowed to let in, right now, exactly as you are.In this session, we open the door a little wider. We practice making room for lightness. We welcome joy the way you would welcome an old friend who has been waiting at the door, patient and gentle, ready to come in and sit beside you.This episode includes gentle breathwork — a simple four-count breathing practice you can return to any time joy feels far away.Grab your headphones. Get comfortable. And let's begin.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━AFFIRMATIONS IN THIS EPISODE• I welcome joy into my life. I make room for it.
