A wonderful idea. I wish I had thought about this while I was still working as a clinical psychologist. It is a natural process for children to have their "transitional object" of safety and reassurance - favourite toy, comfort object or blanket. We grown-ups need something like this, too.

It's so wonderful. I'm working on mine and organizing it with my favorite things, music, books and food.

Great idea! My box would have a CD with chamber music, a few strips of bacon, and churros with dulce de leche.

I've never heard of anything like this before, and I love it so much! What would I put in my joy box? A bar of dark chocolate, pictures of my cats, and my entire digital library, obviously. 😁
