------------------------------------------

How do we take a vacation, laugh with friends, float in a pool, eat something delicious, or let ourselves have a good day while the world is on fire?

For helpers, joy can feel complicated. We may know we need rest, but still feel guilty for stepping away. We may crave lightness, but feel strange enjoying ourselves when people we love, or the world around us, are struggling. Sometimes even a quiet afternoon or a fun summer plan can bring up the question: Am I allowed to feel good right now?

This session is about making room for joy without checking out completely. Together, we’ll talk about guilt, rest, pleasure, and the very human need to breathe, even when there is still work to be done.
