Ten Pathways: A framework for redefining happiness (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780645437461)

We live in a world where we are taught to resist our pain. There's a subtle expectation that we will push it aside or squash it down, so we can get back to striving towards the "good life" - an imaginary place free of disappointment, regret, insecurity, or any other uncomfortable emotion.

Pain is part of the human experience. We all have challenges, setbacks and tough times. By denying or resisting it we are also robbing ourselves of the deeper lessons these experiences have for us. A happy life is not found in the absence of pain but rather, in being with these moments with such curiosity, courage, and compassion that they transform into our greatest teachers. When we take these lessons into our ordinary everyday lives, our days feel more interesting and meaningful. We feel more vibrant and alive.
