About
What would it take to make you happier? Having more money? Losing weight? People can waste a lifetime acquiring wealth or the perfect body only to discover that they are no more content. Or maybe happiness is to be found in the simple pleasure of helping others and spending time with your friends and family. At a time when money is becoming tight for many people, it seems that the old-fashioned values of neighbourliness and thinking about others are starting to make a come-back.
I try to break through their barriers to happiness by looking at five key pathways that make it more likely than not that we will feel more contented and fulfilled. These are finding a sense of meaning and purpose; secondly, it is important to feel engaged and connected with others; thirdly, we often forget to let go into pleasure and lose contact with our inner child; the fourth thing is to develop emotional resilience, finding ways to walk towards what is difficult: and finally spending more time in the 'here and now', rather than constantly dwelling on the past or catastrophically anticipating the future. Paying attention to your moment to moment experience without judgement or self-criticism enables you to access your strong inner core: the place of inner wisdom, well-being and happiness. This is an experiential workshop where we will work through the five pathways, in a safe and supportive environment.
