Build Resilience with the Science of Joy
Listen for FreeJoy Lab is an evidence-based mental health tool designed to help you feel genuinely better, build resilience, and tap into more joy — delivered weekly by Henry Emmons, MD and Aimee Prasek, PhD
You are wired for joy.
And yet, in a busy, stressful world, it’s easy to lose touch with anything that feels joyful. If you've ever felt that distance between who you are and who you've had to become just to get through the day, you're not broken. You're human. And your joy is still there, waiting. That's the paradox at the heart of Joy Lab: joy is your human nature, but reclaiming it takes practice. That's what Joy Lab is for.
We built our approach on four things that don’t just support good mental health, but that can help you find your way back to joy:Â
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Helps gently untangle the thoughts that can keep you stuck in ruminations and patterns that make change tough.Â
- Positive Psychology. Â Helps remind you of the strength you've had in you all along.Â
- Science of Mindfulness. Helps you breathe with more ease and feel present in your own life again.Â
- Wisdom of the Soul. Helps you tap into the deep wisdom and sense of purpose that can't be reasoned or forced into existence.Â
Importantly, Joy Lab isn't about chasing happiness. It's about strengthening mental health and resilience, tapping into your joy, and coming home to yourself. It’s an individual and collective journey our community is focused on, one Element at a time.
