15 Jun The Emotional Breakthrough That Changed Amy’s Life

When I attended my Lifebook session, I had vague ideas about what to expect. As I went through the week, it became clear this was exactly what I needed in my life. I had many breakthroughs... some I didn't even realize I needed! These shifts in thinking have made all the difference in the past 6 weeks. I will never be the same. I am happier, healthier, more loving and more loved. I am more deeply connected with myself and others around me. I am richer, wealthier and a more patient and fun parent. I have done numerous things with relative ease that I thought would always be a struggle for me. One aspect I have struggled with for years lives in the Emotional Category. I didn't even know how to put it into words before Lifebook, but I can now... I didn't have the skills to get through frustrations successfully. When things would happen in our family dynamic that brought disappointment and resentment, I would let it build inside of me. I knew this wasn't leading to my happiness and I knew it wasn't healthy. In fact, I knew that over the years as these feelings built up, it could be devastating to my family and my health. Then, [Lifebook's] Emotional Category presentation changed the course of my life.

21 Oct Discover Your Emotional Anatomy: Where do you FEEL your feelings?

If we were to ask you what your most commonly experienced emotion was, you could probably offer up a few answers on the spot, right? Now, what if we asked WHERE you felt those emotions within your body?  That’s probably a little more difficult to answer… Because most people are unaware of the incredible relationship between emotions and physical sensations, and how the knowledge of it can totally transform your emotional life. We say we have a “gut feeling” about something, or a “lump in our throat” when we’re upset.  But these aren’t just figures of speech… they are real signals from our bodies that should be listened to, identified, and released if we want to evolve into our emotional and physical potential. Feelings are called such for a reason...  You FEEL them. 

23 Feb 5 Crucial Elements of Happiness

Devers Branden is one of the happiest people on the planet. Her joy is radiant, her compassion is remarkable, and her contentment in life is unshakable. Devers has achieved the most successful emotional life imaginable.

With no formal education in psychology, Devers forged an entirely new path in the world of psychotherapy. Alongside her former husband, Nathaniel Branden, Devers worked in clinics all over the world, helping thousands of individuals find new roads to happiness. She is also the co-author of books “Achieving High Self Esteem,” “What Love Asks of Us,” and many more publications. For several years, Devers also taught seminars through The Branden Institute. The most recent and compelling seminar is based on the discipline of happiness. After studying the subject for many years, her approach is simple, comprehensive, and profoundly wise.

The concept of happiness is often vague, subjective, and too overwhelming for most to approach. However, Devers defines happiness as two fold. Happiness is the existence of an inner-peace - the creation of a quiet internal environment that allows people to hear themselves. Happiness is also the experience of striving for achievement, the realization of personal goals.
