We grow up and call it maturity,
but somewhere along the way we forget how to play.
We trade spontaneity for self-consciousness,
laughter for control, and joy for “being responsible.”
Yet deep down, something in us aches to be unguarded again -
to remember the language of curiosity, silliness, and awe.
In this month’s Joy Lab, we explore The Paradox of Play -
that what looks frivolous is, in truth, profoundly sacred.
That play is not the opposite of seriousness,
but the gateway to presence, connection, and aliveness.
Together we’ll ask:
✨ What happens when we approach play with reverence?
✨ Can play become a form of prayer, of healing?
✨ What part of us is reborn when we let ourselves be foolish again?
Expect movement, laughter, awkwardness, tenderness, and surprise.
A place to soften your edges, loosen the rules, and remember what joy feels like when it’s alive in the body.
Come curious. Come weary. Come ready to remember.
Because joy - real joy - is serious medicine.
