You Are Your Own North Star… Play lights up your North Star and activates your internal GPS, what I'm really saying is that Joy frees you up to listen to your gut - your inner guide.The more I played and practiced my Joy, the more I realized how bizarre societal beliefs, All the shoulds and shouldn’ts had been getting in my way. They were so loud, I forgot I even had an inner guide. Think about it this way: The brain is where we worry about shit, money, looks, pleasing people-and all those worries get so loud that they distract us from the things we care about, like what we actually want and what inspires us.
