Happy July!
We are really excited to have just released LOVE Pillar 10 of the Joy U Online Learning Program.
TA DA!! to those of you who are journeying through the 12 Pillars in the learning program. We love reading your feedback! Here is what Janelle had to say about how excited she was to start Pillar 2: Compassion & Grace.
"I feel calmer, I am grateful for the small things as well as the big. I am more positive and am slowly getting this into my workplace. More quickly getting the re-framing to be part of my home existence. There is so much joy in telling your teenage sons you are proud of them, not because they did this or that, just because they are who they are! I never realized how negative we (humans) can all be at times and in many cases "most of the time". For things to change first I must change, well I have changed and it is going to be a fun ride! TA DA to all, bring on Pillar 2!".
We hope you enjoy "3A's of Awesome", our featured video this month. An inspiring Ted Talk by Neil Pasricha whose site is the winner of two Webby Awards (“the Internet’s highest honor” according to The New York Times).
We have also included a delicious recipe for Banana Bread, kindly shared with us by Jude Blereau, natural foods chef, author and food coach.
We hope you have a great month! Remember to connect with us and join the conversation on facebook.

Amanda's Take - What you say, Think and Believe matters!
If you have never heard of Florence Scovel Shinn, your life is about to change!!
I discovered her about 30 years ago and wish I had spent more time just practicing what I learned from her! It would have fast tracked a lot of my learning and growth! She wrote these books in the 1925 and they are full of truisms!
Mel (my VP of everything) and Sheryl (my business partner) were discussing Florence the other day and we decided our next newsletter could focus around what she could teach all of us!

“Every now and then, go away. Have a little relaxation. For when you come back to your work, your judgment will be surer, since to remain constantly at work will cause you to lose the power of judgment……go some distance away because then the work appears smaller and a lack of harmony or proportion is more readily seen.”

words are easy - but what about our behaviors
We've heard that words are easy a million times - yet we fall for the same old lines in relationships again and again! We allow people to say all the right things and do all the wrong things - or we don't notice they are saying one thing and doing another. Or we do it to others.

what's the best thing to happen to you today?
How many people greet you each day - or even once in their lives - with "Hi , What's the best thing that's happened to you today?
