Finding Joy in Family

4 Simple Tips to Reclaim Your Joy During Stressful Times

Would you have thought back in March when this partial isolation started that we would still be somewhat locked down in July? Thankfully we can explore outside, have lake or beach adventures and take time to reflect on what brings us joy with limited resources.

I have been very thankful during my time of self-reflection, to be comforted by knowing I have a foundation of faith.  With so much discord in many facets of life these days, it is so incredible to believe in a God that we can trust. It gives such a sense of peace to know he holds all things under his control and that they will work out best for those that love him.

It has been therapeutic for me to expand my horizons with new things to find joy in. So, I want to share these tips with you in hopes that it may help you as well.

  1. Create a getaway haven in your home or yard. God gave us two perfect trees to hold a hammock! I am happy to be enjoying it daily along with the sunshine and my surroundings.Create an Escape Haven
  2. Create/find a mental escape. I have spent time doing some “light” reading. Escaping into a fun novel has reduced my stress and taken me away to some fun places if only in my mind! Remember the brain doesn’t know the difference between real and imagined. Meditation is also a wonderful way to create a mental escape and restore balance.
  3. Create a fun dining experience. Last weekend we picked up food from a couple different restaurants (each picked our favorites) and took it to a park to eat. We packed a picnic basket with beverages and other necessities and were able to enjoy the fresh air, new scenery and each other.
  4. Create more family time. I have enjoyed some precious time celebrating our growing family. Thankfully, my children were able to visit for a few days and help me celebrate my day of birth. However, you don’t need a reason to be together. The photos you see in the collage above are of our wonderful weekend together.  We had fun exploring the beach, our grandson came which always helps re-energize the family and we are thrilled to announce my son’s girlfriend recently said “YES”. Words cannot express how much joy this brings us.

Nothing puts things in perspective like realizing our joy does not come from what we have, where we can go or what we do….it truly comes from the love we share with those closest to us. This summer, maybe more than ever, I have been thankful for the slower pace of my personal world that has allowed me to discover more joy in making these precious memories and the people I share them with.

As my family watched the incredible show of fireworks put on by our many incredible neighbors on July 4th, it was a wonderful reminder that we still live in a great country and can find so much joy if we look for it.
