Find Your Happy

What you'll learn

Course overview

This book is a #1 Amazon best-seller for a reason, and now it's available to you as a professional CE course. While our clients are diverse in many ways, underneath all the presenting problems, precipitating events, hurt, and dysfunction is a very similar and consistent yearning to find fulfillment. The truth is, everyone is on a quest to discover more happiness; clients, friends, neighbors, co-workers, family (and counselors too!). And yet, few people know how to get there. This guidebook takes a fun, no-nonsense approach to personal development and provides the reader access to innovative and proven happiness strategies not readily available. Kelly combines her knowledge as a licensed counselor, with reliable scientific data, and a bit of yogic wisdom to create an extraordinary formula for a life where joy is not a fleeting emotion, but a constant companion. Kelly McClintock's journey to becoming a "happiness expert" began in one of the unlikeliest of places: a jail. As a jail-based therapist, Kelly has worked with thousands of incarcerated individuals, providing her a unique view of the profound human desire to overcome difficult circumstances. And then, in early 2014, it was she who was on a mission to escape the darkness that had suddenly engulfed her life. In this book, Kelly chronicles what she refers to as "the Divine Storm of 2014", which came in the form of a life-threatening diagnosis. And it wasn't her diagnosis; it was far worse. After complaining of leg pain, Kelly's 11-year-old son was diagnosed with a Ewing Sarcoma tumor on his left femur. Walk beside this author as she honestly and organically sorts her personal trauma, while developing 30 innovative strategies to comfort, soothe, guide, heal, and help us to persevere. Kelly outlines the methods that work for her clients, as well as the unique strategies that helped her ailing spirit during her darkest moments. Explore the power of spirituality and methods like mindfulness to harness thoughts and emotions, empowering us to effectively deal with life's most difficult circumstances. Find Your Happy is a no-frills, cut-to-the-chase, comprehensive guide to happiness. Unlock 30 essential keys to happiness, providing the roadmap needed to exist at a higher consciousness, where you experience the steadfast joy you deserve.
