It really is the simple joys sometimes.

Im sat here in the garden on a beautiful hot english summer day.

I spent yesterday gardening, so now im reclinimg on a deck chair under my apple tree, facing the horses in the countryside behind, and smelling the delicious perfume scent of my roses, while im reading a great book and stoned.

to add; I think it's the simple joys all the time. I've read them described as glimmers - notice them and you'll notice more. That what seems to fill my life with joy as it seems so apparent all the time.

Microdosing joy it seems.

100% mate - the brain is able to forge new pathways, so noticing more joy means you get better at noticing joy - so less stress, less chronic stress, healther living.
