We believe that happiness is a state of being. It is an internal experience and way of living. We believe that all lives are meant to be lived in a happy positive way. This is a choice. We believe that we all have a life path and purpose. Although lives are full of lessons we believe they are all meant to teach us and help us grow into better people and enlightened souls. In working with us and "Being HAPPY" we will strive to help you to understand how to implement positive permanent change to your mental and spiritual well being. Awareness and happiness are choices and a way of life, not labels or destinations. It is believed by some that our brains are hardwired for positive or negative thinking, that some people are naturally more positive than others. While this may seem valid some doctors are challenging that belief. There is more and more research that supports the belief that this is something we can change. If you would like further intellectual information we recommend reading "The Biology of Belief", ``Molecules of Emotion", "How Emotions Are Made", "Change Your Brain Change Your Body", Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself". In this book, we use the words God, Creator, Spirit, and Universe interchangeably. Please use what is most comfortable for you. We believe that all things are made up of energy and all interactions have an effect on this energy. This workbook, our coaching programs, and certifications address the energy of LIVING a positive, purposeful, life and being HAPPY in this life. In our work and this workbook, we refer to meditation and prayer. We like to remember the old adage, "Prayer is when you talk, meditation is when you listen." In prayer, you are speaking to Creator, Angels, your own soul in some form. Asking for help, guidance, instruction. In meditation, you are quiet, mindful and aware to receive this information with gratitude when it arrives with an open mind and heart.
