ADY Krewe

ADY Krewe A movement inspiring joy every day, for everyone. If you want more joy in your life, we'll help you make it a daily practice, whether life is sweet or salty.

Because joy raises our baseline happiness and makes us more resilient to the crappy stuff.

The idea of dressing up for a parade, dancing out in public, or even just allowing yourself to express joy without judgement can actually be a little intimidating. Why is that? Maybe you were raised in a restrictive household. Maybe you’ve been on the go or so busy with work that you just put “fun” on the backburner. Or maybe life has just gotten in the way and you haven’t had time to prioritize yourself. Listen to Fitz reflect back on his priorities throughout his life.

A parade might seem extravagant... and dancing in the street may feel silly...

But finding JOY is necessary. In fact, it's imperative to our mental health. With the stressors of daily life weighing on all of us, it is more important than ever to find ways to rediscover joy and thrive every day. An ADY Celebration parade might be just the thing you need these days! 😉

Here's something nobody says out loud enough: You're allowed to want more joy in your life!

Joy isn't a reward for when you've got it together. It's a necessity right now, as-is, no prerequisites. And science agrees!

Joy lowers cortisol (that's the stress hormone that wrecks your immune system and your sleep). It improves cardiovascular health. It builds mental resilience. Stanford Lifestyle Medicine found that laughter actually reduces cortisol levels enough to protect the hippocampus which is the part of your brain responsible for memory as you age. Not frivolous. Literally good for you!

The world doesn't need more guilt about wanting to feel alive. It needs more glimmers.

So if you've been waiting for permission: here it is. You deserve it.

Feeling like you've lost your smile? Are you missing that "spark" that used to inspire you every day? You can discover it again!

Sometimes, it can feel like joy is some luxury only afforded by those who are rich enough, healthy enough, or "good enough." But that's not true! Joy is meant for everyone, every day. And it doesn't have to show up in big, dramatic, or lavish ways. It can be as simple as a specialty drink from your favorite cafe, picking flowers as you walk in your neighborhood, or dancing to your favorite song while you wait for the pasta to boil. OR... it can look like A PARADE!

If you're looking to build community and reignite that spark of joy, the ADY Celebration Parade is for you! Join us in New Orleans on Saturday, October 3rd for live music, dancing, friendship, and an opportunity to fully express your JOY!
