When life is busy and stressful, it’s easy to miss the good things right in front of you.

A few quiet minutes outside. Something new along a familiar path. A conversation that helps you feel connected. These moments can be easy to pass by when you’re busy getting through the day.

For My Joy offers 30 approachable practices to help you slow down, step outside, and invite wonder into your day. Through simple activities and thoughtful reflection, author Robb Erickson encourages you to notice your surroundings, reconnect with yourself and others, and make room for things you enjoy.

Inside, you’ll find invitations to:

• Pay attention to the beauty and details of the natural world.

• Practice gratitude for the people and experiences that matter to you.

• Explore gentle movement and moments of rest.

• Check in with yourself and connect with others.

• Carry a little more curiosity and appreciation into everyday life.

Each practice includes an action, a reflection question, and a prompt to help you look ahead. Explore them at your own pace, adapt them to your circumstances, and return to the ones that resonate with you.

Written for anyone who gets caught up in the rush of daily life, For My Joy offers a warm, honest place to begin.
