Gitty Stolik--Creating a Mindset of Joy

Gitty Stolik is an educator who helps challenged children. She is also the author of two books, "It's Okay to Laugh, Seriously" and "New Joy, Response to a Changing World."

Gitty differentiates between joy and happiness. She emphasizes that joy is a G-dly attribute; it's the natural state of the soul. Joy is internally generated and has no ego. Happiness, goes up and down (it's not steady). Happiness is dependent on our situation; it depends on our circumstances and is self-centered.

Gitty speaks about how to create sustainable joy in our lives. Perspective and reframing are key, as is laughter. Laughter connects us on a G-dly level.
