Sacred needs are the essential desires of your soul, they are the nourishment that energizes you and guides you toward your highest self. What your soul longs for and what the ego desires may be two very different things. Deepening your relationship with joy brings you closer to an alignment with soul.

Joy's Shadow as a compass​
​
Joy can also appears in less comfortable moments—like feeling satisfaction when someone who hurt you faces hardship or when asserting dominance over another brings pleasure. These moments reveal something deeper: a hidden, unmet need.

​
-
What sacred need is being met right now?
-
What deeper nourishment am I receiving from this joy?
-
How can I honor this need in a more intentional, compassionate way?
​​
​
Joy is your instruction manual. The more you read it, the more you understand how to live a life aligned with your sacred gifts and soul's purpose.
