An uplifting and practical guide to finding moments of joy, even when life is at its hardest
Bighearted and hopeful. Unflinchingly honest and healing. A profound compendium of intimate, inspiring essays and thoughtful prompts that will keep you afloat in difficult times and sustain you in the everyday.
Microjoys are a practice of uncovering joy and finding hope at any moment. They are accessible to everyone, despite all else. When we hone the ability to look for them, they are always available. Microjoys are the hidden wisdom, deep memories, subtle treasure, and ordinary delights that surround us: a polka-dot dress on a thrift store shelf. A dear friend's kindness at just the right time. The neighborhood spice shop. A beloved family tradition. The simple quietude of being in love. A cherished recipe.
Cyndie Spiegel first began taking note of microjoys during the most difficult year of her life - when she experienced back-to-back unprecedented and devastating losses - and she found that these fleeting moments of hope helped her move through each day with a semblance of comfort and a lot more joy.
Through beautifully written chapters and prompts, Cyndie shares the microjoys that have kept her going through tough times and shows us how we can learn to see the microjoys in our own lives. Microjoys don't change the truth of loss or make grief any more convenient, but they allow us to temporarily touch joy, keeping us buoyed and moving forward, one moment at a time.

Microjoys! I have a name for them now, thanks to Cyndie Spiegel, and a renewed commitment to seek them out - those delights, mercies, and inexplicably magic moments, big or small, that are always right there, if we only open up and pay attention
