Have you ever wondered why, despite giving your best efforts at life in all its departments, it still always feels like there’s something missing? I did. Ever thought that ‘completely happy’ is really an illusory state of being that only exists and belongs in fairy tales? I did, and so did most of the other people I knew. Well, I’m here to tell you now that if that’s true, you can call me Cinderella!......And we all know what happened to Cinderella, don’t we? She found Happy! You can too! ‘Truly and completely Happy’ is not only possible but also much closer than you may think, and if you haven’t experienced it yet, it’s simply because, so far, you haven’t looked in the right places. Brannie takes an informed and humorous approach in looking at how you too, can go about finding ‘Happy’, that bright, shiny place on your horizon; not too far away, but always somehow just out of reach for today...! Until now! Chasing Happy is written in a practical, easy and friendly style that will have you smiling as it inspires you to dare to make your own dreams come true.
Have you ever had to choose between a relationship and something you've dreamed about your whole life? That is the dilemma twenty-three-year-old Kieran Taylor unexpectedly finds herself in, and she's not entirely sure how she got there. Deep down she knows that her violent and controlling boyfriend, Darren, is not the one for her and she quickly regrets choosing him. Trapped in a dead-end job and relationship, Kieran finds temporary solace in the arms of her first love, Joshua, who reappears after five years, though his return reopens old wounds. Confused and determined to be free of her painful past and pitiful present, Kieran goes on holiday to Greece where she meets the handsome Romeo. Unable to resist the temptation of romance and adventure, Kieran allows this perfect stranger to sweep her off her unsuspecting feet. Romeo, however, is not all he portrays and learning the truth leads Kieran on a downward spiral of destruction. One big secret leads to an even bigger heartbreak - one she did not see coming, and it changes her life forever.

Discover the 3x3 meditation technique that can turn your life around in this “raw, compelling and deeply inspiring” self-help memoir (Jack Canfield, coauthor of Chicken Soup for the Soul). Many know that thoughts and emotions affect the physical body—but how can you use this knowledge most effectively? Dina Proctor developed the 3x3 meditation technique during her own struggle with suicidal depression and addiction. As a certified life coach, she shares it with her clients. Now, she shares it with readers everywhere. In this book, Proctor recounts her raw, real experience and the 3x3 meditation technique that has been the key to her physical, mental, and emotional healing—leading to better regulation of blood sugar and cholesterol, weight loss, and even improved relationships. The key is not spending hours on end in meditation or visualization practice, but to engage multiple times per day in shorter bursts, to consistently interrupt old thought patterns and negative thinking. If you can spare nine minutes a day, you too can experience its powerful benefits—and in addition to the author’s riveting story of recovery, Madly Chasing Peace provides concrete steps to get you started.
Has anybody ever noticed the adage, "If you attempt to be happy your entire life, you will sure to fail?" Pursuing happiness can simply make people unhappy and dissatisfied, like a majority of other humans. The only distinction might be that individuals will appear to be content otherwise. One might be putting in a lot of effort to persuade oneself that he is truly happy. However, deep down, he is wailing in agony and faking happiness. It's not how one should enjoy one’s life. One must wholeheartedly accept all situations if he/she wishes to lead a happy life. People need to allow themselves to enjoy every great moment, including the negative ones. Chasing happiness is nothing more than an attempt to filter out the negative facets of life, and it is impossible to maintain this honest effort. Instead of avoiding discomfort, one may turn it into an opportunity to learn and grow.
Experience more joy and meaning each day—and have greater resilience when times get tough What if you could be happier, right now, without radically changing your life? As nationally recognized happiness expert Nataly Kogan teaches, happiness is not a nice feeling or a frivolous extra. It’s a critical, non-negotiable ingredient for living a fulfilling, meaningful, and healthy life—and it’s a skill that we can all learn and improve through practice. In Happier Now, Nataly shares an illuminating, inspiring, and science-based guide to help you build your happier skills and live with more joy, starting now. Nataly’s own journey from Russian refugee to successful investor, tech executive, and founder and CEO of Happier taught her an important lesson: no matter how much you accomplish, how much you live the "right" way, or even how much gratitude you practice, life won’t always be smooth. "We experience genuine and lasting happiness when we stop trying to turn the negative into the positive," Nataly writes, "and when we embrace the full range of our human emotions with compassion and strength." Throughout this engaging guide, Nataly describes how she went from being cynical and resistant to the ideas behind self-improvement and spirituality, to studying everything she could on the science of happiness, to completely shifting her mind-set. You’ll learn five core practices for building your happier skills—acceptance, gratitude, intentional kindness, knowing your bigger why, and self-care—along with the scientific research that supports each one. Highlights include: Daily Anchors—Cultivate a custom set of simple daily practices, fine-tuned for your emotional health needs • Bring more joy and meaning into your life as it is—without needing to make difficult or time-consuming changes • How happiness leads to many of the things you want in life, rather than results from them • Learn an effective five-minute happier workout for whenever you need a boost • Strengthen your "emotional immune system" so you can be okay when times are tough—and bounce back to happy sooner • Specific instructions for tools and techniques that work—based on what’s actually happening in your brain • Effective exercises, journaling prompts, and key insights for developing each core happier skill As Nataly says: "It’s time to stop saying ‘I’ll be happy when . . .’ and start saying ‘I’m happier now because . . .’"
Chasing Slow models HGTV star Erin Loechner's journey to help you break out of the faster-better-stronger trap and make small changes to refresh your perspective, renew your priorities, and shift your focus to what matters most. You're here, but you want to be there. So you spend your life narrowing this divide, and you call this your race, your journey, your path. You live your days tightening your boot straps, wiping the sweat from your brow, chasing undiscovered happiness just around the bend. And on and on you run. Viral sensation and HGTV.com star Erin Loechner knows about the chase. Before turning 30, she'd earned the title "The Nicest Girl Online" as she was praised for her authentic voice and effortless style. Her HGTV web show garnered over one million fans worldwide, and her client list includes Walt Disney World, IKEA, Martha Stewart and Home Depot. The New York Times applauded her, her friends and church admired her, and her husband and baby adored her. She had arrived at the ultimate destination. So why did she feel so lost? Through a series of steep climbs--her husband's brain tumor, bankruptcy, family loss, and public criticism--Erin learns just how much strength it takes to surrender it all, and to veer right into grace. In Chasing Slow, Erin upgrades her life through downsizing--her stuff, her obligations, her fears, her personal metric of "perfect." And ultimately, her invitation becomes yours: to turn away from the fast and frenzy, and find freedom in a new-fashioned lifestyle defined by grace. Life's answers are not always hidden where they seem. It's time to venture off the beaten path to see that we’ve already been given everything we need. We've already arrived. You see? You'll see.

DISCOVER THE HAPPINESS YOU’VE BEEN CHASING Many of us spend our lives chasing happy through relationships, success, and the next adventure. Yet, we only discover a dryness in our souls. Why? Because we’re chasing the wrong kind of happy. We chase temporary happiness instead of the eternal happiness found in Jesus. Sometimes, we wonder if God wants us to be happy. Someone said that God cares more about our holiness than our happiness like the two are disconnected. But what if the pursuit of happiness was adjacent to the pursuit of holiness? The problem isn’t that God doesn’t want us to be happy. The problem is that we’re chasing happy in the wrong things. Happiness is ours when we chase God’s joy, His purpose, His unity, His contentment, and His peace. Happy is captured when we chase Him. If you’ve ever struggled with laying hold of true happiness, this study is for you! Discover the incredible truth that happy isn’t found in the circumstances around us, but the power of Jesus in us.
