Navigating Joy!
The Hands Down Best Resource for You to Get Unstuck, Discover Who You Are, and Find the Flow of Your Life Again!

"Don't ask what the world needs; ask what makes you come alive and do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive." Howard Thurman
What if.....YOUR JOY
is the greatest gift you give to the people around you?
What if your joy is the greatest gift to yourself, and your highest contribution to the world?
As you journey through your sacred life, what are you navigating?
Are you navigating your natural state and purpose - your JOY?
OR are you navigating a temporary ego/personality state of misery, suffering and pain?
Just as a butterfly doesn't fly in a perfectly straight line, your path of experiences and choices may not seem perfectly straight to you, but as long as your compass is pointing toward "JOY," and your life GPS is set for "JOY" then all your experiences are aligned with your highest self. You are always exactly where you are meant to be!
It's a MYTH to believe that you're doing something wrong if you're not always happy.
Navigating joy does not mean you are always in a "happy" mood. As humans, ALL of our emotions are actually a vital part of our journey. Navigating is a constant evaluation of our thinking, choices and emotions. What you think and feel MOST of the time, however, is a direct indication of whether you are mainly navigating misery or joy.
You are navigating MISERY if .....
- You frequently make choices out of guilt, obligation, fear of consequences if you don't do it, or fear of missing something
- You repeat the same worry thoughts, or negative "what ifs" over and over in your mind
- You berate yourself for "mistakes" and do not see any worthwhile talents or abilities in yourself
- Your best skill is pointing out what's not working in yourself and everyone else.
- You spend time talking yourself into doing things you don't really want to do because you believe you "should" be doing them, and you feel guilty for not wanting to do them
- You talk yourself out of doing things that interest or excite you because you don't think they're appropriate, or you believe there's any point in doing them
- It's hard to find things to appreciate in your life (and think most other people have it much easier than you do)
- You feel like you're in a vicious cycle, running in circles or spiraling downwards
- You are secretly harboring resentments and grudges
- You don't trust your own judgment and rely on other people's opinions and expectations when making most decisions
- You're afraid to disappoint people
- You wonder how you can be expected to "count your blessings" when your life is so crappy?!
- You are easily discouraged
- You might be sabotaging yourself, despite your efforts
- You are dissatisfied with your relationships
- You're trying so hard, but things just aren't getting any better for you, which causes you to feel angry, frustrated, inadequate and guilty
On the other hand......
How do you know if you are NAVIGATING YOUR JOY?
- Your self-talk is kind, supportive and encouraging, no matter what. YOU ARE YOUR OWN BEST FRIEND.
- You make choices that honestly FEEL good to you.
- You do things because you WANT to!
- You go places with people because you enjoy being with them
- You can laugh at yourself in a kind way
- You TRUST that you are EXACTLY where you are meant to be
- You decide to do or not do things based on whether or not they INSPIRE YOU
- You trust your judgment, and don't get thrown by temporary set-backs
- You can see the bigger picture
- You frequently use your IMAGINATION to picture and FEEL how you can be, where you can go, and what you can do and have
- You feel worthy of love and happiness, and feel confident in your ability to create a life that inspires you, no matter what your external, temporary circumstances may be
- It is easy to "count your blessings" no matter what is going on around you
- You SMILE and LAUGH a lot!
Just like we need to take regular physical showers to wash away dirt we accumulate just by being alive, we need to take "mental, emotional showers" on a consistent basis to keep our minds and hearts clear and clean. This is how we can see our way clearly through circumstances and decisions, and navigate our joy. Otherwise it's like trying to navigate life through thick fog, without a compass or GPS. This website is designed with that goal in mind - to offer you practical support to keep your mind and heart clean and clear, so you are that butterfly, navigating joy.
Our favorite tools and systems:
**WHAT IS HAND ANALYSIS?- Harmonize your personality preferences with your spirit's higher calling, and step into your "life purpose."
Hand Analysis is a fun and powerful tool. It is based on the biological fact that there are more connections from the brain to the hands, and your hands to your brain than any other part of the body. The result is that your hands (their shape, the lines, the fingerprints) become a kind of map of what's going on within you. Your hands speak their own "language" which can be decoded. (Click here to READ MORE about hand analysis....)
**WHAT IS HUMAN DESIGN? - Make decisions with ease and confidence. See a map of how your energy runs, and understand when you are speaking, acting, deciding from external conditioning, or from who you REALLY are.
**WHAT IS BELIEF ALIGNMENT- Identify, then change unconscious limiting beliefs to empowering ones so you can get unstuck and move forward toward your goals and dreams. End the self-sabotage and become your own best ally! Belief alignment is fun, easy and enlightening! Identify sub-conscious beliefs (using muscle testing) that are keeping you stuck no matter how hard you try to move forward. Replace those beliefs with new, empowering ones so you can get clarity on what you really want, know what actions to take, and finally actually get results! (based on the ACT™ system by Nikkea B. Devida.)
** WHAT IS ENERGY PROFILING? - We are each a combination of different energies. Discover your primary and secondary energy types. Understand yourself and others and Improve your relationships.
It's another FUN and POWERFUL system (developed by Carol Tuttle) to help you understand (and love) yourself and others. What makes this system different is that it's very inexpensive - actually the online system is FREE now! - and is an intuitive, "profile yourself" system.
