Product Information

Pursue happiness by learning to accept yourself as you are, make your life an act of love, stretch out of your comfort zone, and more.

Another patient on the same day told me that he made one hundred thousand dollars because a business deal closed in his favor. Do they maybe look at us and think we’ve got it all wrong because we let materialistic things rule our life? Mental resilience means being able to bounce back from negative experiences, or not let them affect in the first place; being able to cope with whatever life throws at you, without it having a drastic effect on your happiness. I need them to understand that it’s more than likely they are all neurodivergent and that they are not copying their older sister because she’s autistic. We also focus on our own mistakes, perceived flaws, shameful experiences, feelings of guilt, and inadequacies.I learned that I was “murdering Byron over and over again” each time I saw images in my mind of Byron’s blood in the trunk of his car or imagined how he might have died. Those of us – particularly in the Western world – tend to forget to recognise how blessed and well off we are. My advice to other people, and especially women, who might be feeling pressure over the question of whether or not to have children is this. It is one of those books you want to reach for more than once because it is down to earth spiritual practice. So while our circumstances can certainly impact our mood and well-being, our happiness ultimately comes from within us.

A practicing psychotherapist, Boorstein is a frequent presenter at psychology conferences and training seminars. His car had been found across the state line with his blood in the trunk, yet his body was missing for three years before it was found. I’m the most non judgmental, pansexual, zero pride, loving, caring, selfish, supportive, non judgmental, non standard person there is and I have done nothing to make them not trust me or worry and have been an open book so idk. I feel worthless when I have to fight back and advocate why all of children find it hard to fit into the system.If you’re at all interested in meditation or learning techniques to focus and stay calm during chaos, but it’s all new to you, I would suggest to start by listening to an interview with Sylvia Boorstein on the Ten Percent Happier podcast, or check out Dan Harris’s book Ten Percent Happier which is a great intro to meditation and a moving memoir.
