The Pursuit of Happiness
Happiness is an inside job! What do the happiest people in the world have in common, and what can we learn from them? Cynthia Clayton, PhD, Happiness Facilitator from UC Berkeley’s Greater Good Science Center, reminds us that our happiness depends upon ourselves. When you know the secrets of happiness, you can be happy simply because you want to be happy! You are in the driver’s seat, living proactively and more consciously. Abraham Lincoln once said: A man is about as happy as he makes up his mind to be. And now it’s proven: 40% of happiness is determined by our actions and thoughts. Unconditional happiness is an enlightened or awakened state dependent on your perspective and learned ability and not others, not events or circumstances.
Learn happiness habits and techniques from Positive Psychology, Neuroplasticity, and HeartMath. Discover the scientific findings and practices for deep and lasting happiness and a meaningful life, including the magic of forgiveness, gratitude, kindness, trusting Life, finding purpose, inspiration, passion, and self-love.
“I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND ANY CLASSES TAUGHT BY CYNTHIA WITHOUT RESERVATION!”
Coastal Center for Collaborative Health Director/ Julie R., Ph.D., LMFT:
“As a mental health professional, I took these classes to be able to learn information to help my clients. I learned more about positive thinking and mindfulness in seven weeks than I ever imagined!
Cynthia has extensive knowledge and expertise in this field of study. Her teaching style is interactive, discussion-based, and supported with a multi-media format. Her confidence and approach-ability helped her to easily develop rapport with the students in her class. HER ABILITY TO CONNECT WITH HER STUDENTS AND HER TALENTS IN TEACHING ARE TRULY SUPERIOR. Not only was Cynthia well organized, but she took on challenges and questions in the classroom with great initiative and a positive attitude. It is obvious that she continues to educate herself and is very open to learning new ideas and methods.”
HAPPY COURSE GRADUATES
IMPORTANT NOTE. We must work to change our brains to be happy since we still have caveman fight/flight programming in our genetic makeup.
