In this revised edition, #1 New York Times bestselling author and nationally known stress-management consultant Dr. Richard Carlson reveals a profound breakthrough in human psychology. Most of us believe that our happiness depends on outside circumstances, that by solving our problems, improving our relationships, or achieving success we will find contentment. But Dr. Carlson clearly shows that happiness has nothing to do with forces beyond our control - in fact, he says, it is our natural state. With this simple and practical guide, Dr. Carlson shows us how to be happy now, before we solve our problems. By understanding five principles - Thought, Moods, Separate Realities, Feelings, and the Present Moment - we can discover a new mode of living that doesn't repress natural emotions yet doesn't allow feelings and thoughts to overwhelm us. You Can Be Happy No Matter What is a navigational tool that gently guides readers through life's challenges and restores the joy of living. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

"Most partners don't give each other the space they need in a low mood; instead they react as if what their partner is saying is carved in stone." (Page 33)
"The quickest way to a higher mood is to discount the way we feel in a low state." (Page 34)
"If we confront a person about something while that person is in a low mood, we can rest assured of the result. The person will become defensive, bothered, and non-receptive. The same is true for ourselves. If we attempt to solve a problem or make an important decision while our mood level is low, we will likely disappoint ourselves and regret our behavior." (Page 35)
"Much has been said about "living in the moment." Virtually every spiritual teacher throughout history has suggested this solution. In fact, this may be one of the oldest and wisest pieces of advice for living a happier life. Yet, despite all the emphasis on this advice, very few people seen able to implement this critical principle into their daily lives." (Page 59)
"One of the surest secrets of happiness is to learn to relax when you feel down or stressed - having faith that the low period and accompanying feelings will pass if you do nothing. Your reaction to the urgency you feel keeps stress in place. So, the obvious solution is to ignore or dismiss the thoughts you have while feeling low." (Page 68)
"The more present moment oriented you become, the easier it will be to stay on track, get focused, concentrate, and achieve your goals." (Page 69) (
