Episode 128: Happiness Is the Goal of Therapy

from Psychology Has It Backwards · host Christine Heath and Judy Sedgeman

Unlike other therapy approaches, The Three Principles has one primary goal for therapy: Happiness.  While that seems counterintuitive to people who seek therapy to address problems or resolve issues, it is the expression of the profound truth of the Principles: Before the formation of thought, we come into the world at peace and content and living from wisdom.  As our intellect gathers memories, we have the free will to look for answers there and to try to figure things out.  But the intellect only knows what we already know.  From a quiet and content mind, confident that we can access wisdom and insight in the moment to address all life situations, we live from happiness, not at the mercy of distress.Support the show
