The Path to Happiness . . .

We tend to believe that it is what happens to us that causes our stress and makes us happy or unhappy. But it is really what we tell ourselves about what happens to us that leads to our state of mind -- happy or unhappy; stressed or at peace. So much of our misery is caused by our beliefs -- particularly about how things should be. If we change these beliefs, we can be happier and experience less stress.

Take a day to explore your attitudes and beliefs. Learn how they control your life . . . Learn to challenge your beliefs and make healthier choices . . . Learn what research says about how to bring happiness into your life.

The Path to Happiness teaches a unique, professionally guided approach to finding "the serenity to accept what I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."

The Path to Happiness

The Path to Happiness: Change Your Beliefs and Attitudes to be Happier and Healthier is a one-day personal growth workshop program offered by the Center for Applied Psychology of Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey. Molly L. Stranahan, Psy.D. is the program designer and workshop leader.

What Happens . . .

Participate in a small-group workshop where you will receive individual attention and the opportunity to identify your particular issues. Limited to no more than 8 participants, ample time will be devoted to applying what you learn.

Dr. Molly Stranahan uses a synthesis of life learnings including her training as a psychologist and her professional and personal experiences in this interactive program, which focuses on the concerns of the participants. She incorporates the influences of cognitive-behavioral psychology, 12-step programs, and research on stress management. Real-life examples abound as Dr. Stranahan uses true stories to illustrate the simple concepts. Each participant signs a confidentiality pledge to assure a safe environment in which to share beliefs and attitudes.

Written materials will be mailed to each participant in advance to introduce you to the concepts. You will take home tools to use after the seminar and Dr. Stranahan is available for continuing assistance in implementing what you learned.

How will your life be different?

By following the simple techniques taught in The Path to Happiness, you will gain control of things within your power to change -- many of which you think are out of your control. And you will let go of the struggle to change (or worry about) what is not in your control. You will discover that "serenity is not freedom from the storm, but peace within the storm." You will leave the seminar with the knowledge and tools to be a happier and healthier person.
