I just  gave a dharmma talk yesterday on "The Practice of Joy and Happiness". 
For  canonical reference I used the appropriate practice steps in the Anap. 
Sutta  and the last 2 of the 4 kinds of right effort in the 8-Fold Path. We 
then had  a guided metta meditation.


By the way, I believe the two joy steps in the Anap. Sutta nor the 4 kinds  
of right effort do not refer to the jhanna state.
