At our chapter’s May meeting, we recognized Mental Health Awareness Month by taking time to reflect on the power of joy.

Dressed in green, our members shared personal reflections on the following questions:
💚What does “joy as resistance” mean to you?
💚How do you protect your peace and choose joy in a world that can feel overwhelming?
💚On difficult days, what is one thing that brings you joy?

These thoughtful responses remind us that choosing joy is not ignoring life’s challenges; it is a powerful act of resilience, self-preservation, and hope.

This conversation aligns beautifully with the theme of our upcoming Mental Health Awareness Conference: “Joy as Power and Resistance.”

We invite you to read our members’ reflections and join the conversation. How do you choose joy? 😊✨
