Episode 164: Trying to be happy all the time is making you sad

Do you find yourself always trying to be happy? When we tell ourselves we should be happy (and we're not) it actually makes us so unhappy. What happens when we stop resisting the part of life that is hard, we suddenly feel so much better. It's so ironic. Thinking we should be happy makes us sad, and telling ourselves it's ok to be sad allows for less sadness. I wish I could insert a mind blowing emoji right here. Listen to the rest of this episode to find out what that looks like to just be ok with being unhappy sometimes.   Inspiration station: Gratitude journal by Sophia Godkin "The 5 Minute Gratitude Journal" Instagram: @sarapaynecoaching Facebook: @sarapaynecoaching
