JUNE 2025 NEWSLETTER

Hi everyone! First of all, welcome to new subscribers. I’m so glad you are receiving my Daily Gratitude Reflections and once-a-month enewsletters. This enews is about JOY. (Yes, for those who are really paying attention, April’s topic was also about Joy. I believe we can’t ever have enough.) And I know Gratitude and Joy are soul sisters! Joy and gratitude are so closely related. If I feel joy, I am grateful for whatever prompted it. If I feel gratitude, I am most likely feeling happy. And Joy is an inside job. If you are feeling sadness instead of joy, please reply and let me know. We can have a chat, and I might have some answers and suggestions to help and guide you. I would love to hear from you.
​
​Recently, I finished facilitating a Book Study Group using a deep and wonderful book Living with Joy by Sanaya Roman. We all found ways to expand joy in our lives. I’ll share some of my favorite delightful affirmations from the book. I highly recommend her book. Also, in May, I attended a lovely workshop by Lara Brezezinski, another CSL practitioner. Her workshop was called Igniting Deep Joy from Within, How to Cultivate a Life of Joy. She is a joy enthusiast, dedicated to spreading more joy in the world. I noticed that the rest of the day, I felt light, airy and filled with more joy and happiness. 

​Blossoming in Joy

I am so thankful for a profusion of flowers in May. If the flowers bloom for their own joy, as Oscar Wilde proclaims, then their joy expands as lots of us so appreciate their beauty and flamboyance. They know exactly when to flower, and where I live, each morning brings a delightful new surprise blossom.

We can also bloom in joy! And when we do, filled with exuberance and our own unique beauty, we spread more love and joy in the world. What a gift.

I am extremely grateful for the seasons of nature, for happiness and smiles, and for our own journeys towards more joy, harmony and peace. Deborah Perdue, 6/27/25

JOY AFFIRMATIONS

Affirmations are very powerful. You can post them places you can see them daily and as you keep saying them, you will find they can indeed come true. 

Here are some I have created just for you:

Joy is an inside job. I own it and I enjoy it.

So grateful for the all of the abundant joys of life. I reflect on them every day, and savor each one.

As I grow in joy and gratitude, I bless the world with my thoughts and actions.

I joyfully let go of anything not serving me.
It’s so easy.

From Sanaya Romans’ book:

I laugh and play. I have a smile in my heart.
​
My heart is like a sun that nurtures all life
with love.

I open to receive more love, joy and abundance.
