Joy is a Fear-Busting Superpower: Embrace It to Nourish Your Spiritual Self
Joy isn’t just a feeling; it’s like a superhero cape that repels fear! This vibrant energy doesn’t know fear, so it doesn’t attract it. Could this be why some people seem to glide through life’s challenges? I truly believe that joy comes from facing fear head-on. My own journey has taught me that joy shines brightest on the other side of life’s emotional hurdles.
I’ve lived it, learned it, and now, it’s a cherished piece of wisdom. Click here to explore how I tackled my fears and found joy on the other side.
As we grow up, it’s easy to overlook the simple pleasures in life. A quick joy boost could be as easy as gazing out the window and marveling at the changing seasons, or losing yourself in the soothing dance of candlelight. It’s all so refreshing!
Do you have a furry friend? Their sheer joy when you come home is pure magic. My Oliver’s tail turns into a joyful tornado every time I walk through the door. Yet, in the hustle and bustle of adulthood, we often miss out on the everyday joys that surround us.
So, let’s take a moment to soak it all in and celebrate the joy that’s always within reach.
If you serve others as fully as you can, what you do will be a source of inner joy. – Dalai Lama

A Few Fun Ways to Boost Your Joy with 7 Simple Habits for Your Spiritual Personality
-
Flowers for Instant Happiness: Flowers are joy in bloom! Their colors, scents, and the memories they evoke—weddings, first dates, birthdays… Even if they sometimes remind you of sad times, pick flowers that spark joy for you. Choose ones that make you smile, no matter the occasion.
-
Daydream Like a Kid: Remember when you’d daydream for hours as a kid? I used to climb trees and imagine flying like a bird or buzzing like a bee. (Spoiler: jumping from branch to branch didn’t end well.) When was the last time you gave yourself an hour to just daydream? Imagine who you want to be and what adventures you could have. It’s a fabulous way to spend a little time each week!
-
Celebrate Your True Self: Discovering who you truly are is like finding hidden treasure. Instead of criticizing yourself, focus on spotting the joy in your quirks and superpowers;—your kindness, thoughtfulness, and wisdom. These are your unique blessings! Count them, cherish them, and be grateful for every one.
-
Nature’s Joy: Nature is a joy powerhouse! Whether it’s listening to the ocean, lounging in a meadow, hiking, or feeling rain on your skin, nature offers a blissful escape. Watch wildlife, admire majestic mountains, or enjoy wildflowers swaying in the breeze. It’s nature’s gift of peace, contentment, and relaxation.
-
Build Joy Around Your Passions: Find something you absolutely love and make it a regular part of your life. For me, it’s tending to my plants. They bring me Zen moments and joy as I nurture these beautiful, green, aromatic beings. What’s your joy? Make it a part of your routine!
-
Switch to a Physical Book: Ditch the screens and grab a book! Reading a physical book improves brain function. Did you know ready fiction enhances empathy? Screens can stimulate rather than relax your brain. So, pack a paperback in your tote and swap it for screen time during downtime. And hey, if you’re looking for a new read, check out my debut book, Unpack Your Personality: Let Your Inner Guide Be Your Travel Guide—perfect for your tote!
-
Cozy Up Every Day: The Dutch call it Gezellig—a warm, cozy feeling that’s hard to translate but wonderful to experience. Think of Julia Roberts in Eat. Pray. Love., enjoying a simple plate of olives and eggs. You don’t need to travel to Italy to create your own cozy moments. Bring Gezellig to your porch, backyard, or favorite room. I’m a fan of charcuterie boards, and right now, I’m savoring fresh strawberries, sesame crackers with honey, and a sprinkle of Parmesan. It’s a small joy I look forward to!
#Journal Prompt: Dive into your inner guide—the ultimate joy maker. Ask her daily how to bring more joy into your life. It’s a journaling adventure I highly recommend.

SJ Types – Your Personality Superpowers: Exacting, Traditional, Advising
Hey SJ types, you’re like the secret sauce that makes the world go ’round! You’re the doers, the systemizers. The ones who take charge of the nitty-gritty tasks that the rest of us might shy away from. Ok, let’s face it, we just don’t want to deal with it.

Dutiful Types: ESTJs, you’re the go-getters with bold, determined hearts. You’re all about taking ownership and contributing your know-how because you know it’s vital and valued.

Pro Tip: Keep an eye out for those unexpected sparks of joy that might make your day even brighter.
Grounded Types: ISTJs, you’re the strategic, stoic masterminds who keep your emotions close and your mind sharp in a crisis. Your joy often comes from a sense of accountability and high quality, which brings you peace and freedom. Running through nature can be a fantastic joy booster for you, giving your mind a break from daily responsibilities.
Attentive Types: ESFJs, you blend adventure and tradition with a flair that makes you shine. You’ve got a knack for appreciating art, entertainment, and the social side of life. Your joy blossoms from being inclusive and spreading goodwill. Revel in your natural warmth and kindness! Make sure to listen to what your heart truly desires—maybe a day at the park with a kite?
Kindly Types: ISFJs, you’re the selfless, courageous souls with a heart of gold. You exude warmth and reassurance, nurturing everyone around you. Your joy often comes through the simple act of caring and sharing your lovely energy with others. But remember, you deserve joy too!

Spirited Types: ESTPs, you’re the wild cards of the personality world—bold, adventurous, and wonderfully unpredictable. Your actions might seem random, but you always strike gold by trusting your instincts and staying aware of the world around you. For you, joy is about diving into life and savoring every sensory moment. Make it a habit to explore, switch up your routine, and never settle for the mundane. Embrace the unexpected and let your adventurous spirit lead the way!

Take a moment to savor the detours and embrace the variety that makes life so thrilling!
Abstract Types: ISFPs, you’re the quiet, artistic dreamers who find joy in the beautiful and the meaningful. You might feel a steady inner drive to find your place, and while you’re not overly concerned with practicalities, you do seek a sense of inner harmony. Your joy often comes from appreciating aesthetic moments and exploring patterns in life. Enjoy walks and hikes in nature to connect with symmetry and beauty. It’s a unique gift, even if it sometimes makes others curious about your inner world!
NF Types – Your Personality Superpowers: Abstract, Flexible, Transcendentalists
Hey NF types, you’re the introspective, creative, and ever-enthusiastic souls who are all about personal growth—both for yourselves and for others. You’ve got that fiery passion for exploring and expanding your world. As noted on page 149 of my debut book, Unpack Your Personality,: “NF types are all about empowering themselves and others to live their fullest potential, purpose, and of course, joy!”

Make it a daily practice, and watch your joy soar!
Insightful Types: INFJs, you’re the calm, persuasive powers of insight. You have a knack for understanding others deeply, often better than they understand themselves.

Take time to explore these abstract practices—they’ll deepen your self-awareness and enrich your understanding of others.
Expressive Types: ENFPs, you’re the vibrant trailblazers, breaking norms and living life with flair. Your joy thrives in the uncharted and the spontaneous.

Seeking Types: INFPs, you’re the inspirational dreamers, champions of freedom and creativity.

Embrace your imaginative side and let your dreams shape your reality!
NT Types – Your Personality Superpowers: Experimental, Cerebral, Objective
Hello NT types, you’re the autonomous, tech-savvy theorists with a knack for dreaming big and understanding the world’s intricacies. As highlighted on page 191 of my debut book, Unpack Your Personality: “NT types love autonomy and are always on a quest to uncover how the world ticks.”
