Meanderings with Trudy

Trudy Chapman
Take a meander with me as I explore joy from various places... through the lives of regular people; through the ingredients that make life joyful; through the lens of grief and the personality framework called the Enneagram. We hear good stories: the ones that show-off human nature to our shining best. Storytelling showing people living lives of meaning and how they got there. Please, join me!
Meanderings with Trudy, "The Joy Diet," Chapter 3: Desire
"Meanderings with Trudy" is brought to you these days by the letter "P" for Pivot. With Angie away for the rest of this season, I'll be doing these episodes on my own. Honestly, it took me a while to figure out what to do, but this is what I have decided: an on-line book club looking into a book on joy. We're digging into the book "The Joy Diet: 10 Daily Practices for a Happier Life" by sociologist and life coach Martha Beck. Please, join me!

Meander with the Salmon Stream, a soundscape
It's March Break here in Canada, children are off school and families are taking a break from routine to spend time together. Typically this means people leave home for warmer parts south, if you're lucky. Some head away to other parts of Canada to visit family. I've headed to Vancouver, British Columbia, to my sister-in-law's place, for a short visit.
