Public Seminar
This session is part two of three stand-alone sessions that will give you the tools to understand more about the science of happiness and how to apply it to your life. We will specifically focus on three tools that will help seniors or others who have lost a life spouse and three more tools for individual...s experiencing constant pain.
We will also answer:
**How you can reverse aging and a study that did just that with memory, strength, and even vision! This is a don't miss item!
**How can you move on after your spouse is gone when there are reminders everywhere?
**How can you rebuild your social network when your life's love is now gone?
**How to gain an amazingly powerful view of the world that is intricately interconnected.
**How to live powerfully and fully when pain is a constant, and perhaps even how you can reduce your feelings of pain.
**How can you spread happiness to the seniors in your life?
The librarian at Willow Glen has graciously allowed us to use her community room for free and we are grateful. And for this reason, we need your help to make a good showing. Please email all of your friends and suggest they email all of their friends to come.

Public Seminar
This session will review part two of three stand-alone sessions that will give you the tools to understand more about the science of happiness and how to apply it to your life.
I'll have our volunteers who attended on Jan 2 present a tool for practice so that those who could not attend on Jan 2 can get ca...ught up.
We will specifically focus on three tools that will help seniors or others who have lost a life spouse and three more tools for individuals experiencing constant pain. We will also answer:
**How you can reverse aging and a study that did just that with memory, strength, and even vision! This is a don’t miss item!
**How can you move on after your spouse is gone when there are reminders everywhere?
**How can you rebuild your social network when your life’s love is now gone?
**How to gain an amazingly powerful view of the world that is intricately interconnected.
**How to live powerfully and fully when pain is a constant, and perhaps even how you can reduce your feelings of pain.
**How can you spread happiness to the seniors in your life?
If you didn’t come to part one, it’s OK. Come to this one anyway. In part 3, we will provide tools from the caregivers’ point of view.

Public Seminar
This session is part three of three stand-alone sessions that will give you the tools to understand more about the science of happiness and how to apply it to your life.
We will specifically focus on five highly popular happiness tools that will help caretakers experience a better relationship with the pe...ople they are taking care of. These tools are quite universal and apply to improving all relationships: parenting, spouses, friendships, and even co-workers. We will also answer:
**How to transform your relationships to mutually loving and flourishing when you have all that history/baggage to deal with.
**How to deal with the guilt of caretaking. This is huge.
**How to deal with an angry or fearful senior.
**How to reduce the stress and time it takes if you are dealing with both aging parents and growing children at once.
**Your questions about happiness and seniors.
**How can you spread happiness to the seniors in your life?

I hope it's ok to post this here. I recently published a book called "The Pocket Guide to Happiness" that was inspired from some rather unique events in my life (anyone who knows me, knows that I'm talking about), that friends and family encouraged me to share with the world. I hope you gain inspiration from it. http:...//sites.google.com/site/thepocketguideto

You'll notice this is a rather small and short book. Well that's kind of the point. We make life so complicated. Think about it. Especially in office settings, isn't your biggest complaint about how much ...
