Q and A's...

What is The Happiness Project in a nutshell??

It's a group coaching course based on Positive Psychology research - aimed at rewiring your brain to think more positively!!!

It has been proven that more than half of society still believe that their happiness is determined by external factors; money, relationships, success, when in fact internal factors play a far larger role in sustaining happiness.

So, what does comes first – happiness or success?

As positive psychologist, Shaun Achor, points out “Most people follow this formula: if you work harder, you will be more successful, and then you will be happy. This formula is scientifically backward. A decade of research shows that training your brain to be positive first actually fuels greater success second.”

The thing with success is that we tend to move the goalposts every time we achieve something, that way always making ‘happiness’ just out of our reach.

So how exactly do we reverse this formula?

Well, according to science and research, happiness is a result of the way that your mind processes things! Put simply, when we feed ourselves with average thoughts, we become ‘average people’.

Living with the notion that you were created with a certain personality, characteristics and set of circumstances that may limit your capacity for constant happiness, is what is referred to as “settling” - Settling for a life that is comfortable, expected of you and requires little from you – a life that is actually way below your standards, your design, your talents and your deeply rooted dreams. 

How does it work?

A habit is said to be made, or broken, in 21 days. We will attempt to include some new habits in your day-to-day living, and in the process of doing this, start rewiring the way your minds work.

We begin the course with a face-to-face session, where we discus your definition of happiness, how to build new habits in our lives, what habits we will be targeting, what inspired me to create this course as well as be presented you with your comprehensive workbook which you will work through on your own over the 21 days. As of that day, you begin implementing the 5 Happiness Habits into your daily life and you journal all this in your workbook.

The course includes 4 face-to-face group sessions, including the first intro session. I currently run 1 organized Happiness Project Group a month and then go out to businesses/ home-groups to run this course with pre-organized groups during their working/life schedules. 

To keep you inspired, you will also receive a daily email with little positivity-inspired challenges, links to inspiring ted-talks and general accountability for the full 21 days.

Why is this a GROUP course?

Put simply, this course consists of a group of individuals {similar to you in their pursuit of happiness above success} who meet together once a week in my sessions - all work is done privately, but with the same goal in mind!!

I am ALL about comfy atmospheres, so there is never any pressure to share, but in saying that, growth is exponential when we put ourselves out of our comfort zones & open ourselves to learn from others & benefit from the accountability that a group setting offers. 

Who is this course aimed at?

            All those who are needing a little nudge in terms of their general positivity levels.

            Anyone who is up for a challenge, or 5, and is determined to see change take place in their lives. 

Those who are determined to get ahead in life…to turn their backs on average living and to rewire their minds to think like a ‘happy’ person.
