𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲. But are you 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 living?
Endless do-do lists, the performance treadmill... we all know how it works. When was the last time you stopped, looked in the mirror, and asked: "Is this it? Is this my life?"

Yeah, compromise happens. Life throws punches. Privilege exists.
But if you have the opportunity to 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲, then why not?

💛 Maybe that’s you too:
╶You want to know 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝘀𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗹 𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲.
╶You need to reconnect to your core, your values, to that inner compass that's been whispering for too long.
╶𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲, 𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲, out of the auto-pilot.
╶You don’t wanna do it alone.

Henry David Thoreau said, "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately." So that’s where we start: in a mid-summer night, at the sunset of dreams.

🔥 What’s there, for you:
⸱ A supportive, emotional intelligent community
⸱ 𝗕𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲, without holding up masks
⸱ Find your personal compass and practice 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳
⸱ You'll walk away knowing more of what you want & what truly aligns with you
⸱ A recharged body & mind: feel 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱, 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱, 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱

Sometimes, all it takes is stepping away from the noise and focusing on you, to spark the change you crave.
🍃 𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲, 𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗶𝘁.

If you want to reconnect with what really gives you joy, early birds are open

When we started Root of Joy, we all had experience organizing learning & development events, but this was something entirely new.

🔥 What we love about ROJ is that 𝗶𝘁 𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗲’𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁, evolving alongside us. This year, for example, we’re adding a touch more theatre to the mix!

From program flow to location setup, from kitchen magic to decorations, it’s a year-round worthed effort and it contributes to creating a dreamlike vibe. 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻!

Excited for the 3rd edition of ROJ? We sure are
Early birds out ✨

What is JOY?

“Joy is a deep, often spontaneous feeling of happiness, fulfillment, and aliveness. Unlike fleeting pleasure, joy tends to emerge from a sense of connection 🍃 whether with oneself, others, nature, or a meaningful experience.

It can arise from simple moments, such as laughter with a friend, a creative flow state, or a profound realization.

Joy often carries a sense of expansion, lightness, and inner peace. ✨ It’s not necessarily tied to external circumstances but can be cultivated through presence, gratitude, and embracing life’s unfolding moments.

Unlike excitement, which can be high-energy and transient, joy can be quiet, deep, and enduring.”

Round of applause to our marvellous 2024 team: Ola, Gladys, Edgar, Max!

If you'll ever experience our behind the scenes you'll notice how much work there's to even just turn the location into the dream we call ROJ.

We always look for 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘀 who vibe with our values and are 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝘂𝘀, in exchange for a reduced price the team joyn us one day earlier and leaves after the festival is closed, taking good care of the venue and bonding with the core team.

We also recommend this spot to those eager to 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝘂𝗽 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁, as it's a very hands-on role that gives a 𝘄𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘁!
