  • On Stress Management and Choosing Happiness - Season 1 Episode 8
    Too often do we pour our energy into the conflict that is managing our
    stress. We are in constant critique of what we can do better, what we can
    do more of, what needs to happen next in order to be happy, rather than
    simply choosing happiness today; rather than choosing happiness now in this
    moment. We each deserve a life where we can be happily in love with what we
    are creating. No, we cannot control the events that happen to us or all of
    the circumstances we find ourselves in, but we can decide that they will
    not be the start or the end of anything detrimental to our spirits. We
    encourage you to choose happiness today.
