Hi, welcome to this session on the mental strategy of joy.
What we're going to look at this week, and going to practice for the next week is basically how joy can be an extremely powerful mental strategy for enhancing your performance, your well being and decreasing your stress. So we're just going to jump directly into it, I'm going to ask you to look at this guy on the photo.
And just imagine a situation that you experienced in the past week that made you feel similar to what he feels like, try just for a moment to close your eyes, and reconnect with this situation, someone or something made you upset. And then notice what it feels like in the body. And also notice what it feels like in the mind.
