The evening's session: Train Your Brain to be More Resilient.
Everyone experiences cognitive distortions, where our brains play tricks on us. During this session we will explore how counterproductive thinking can increase our anxiety in stressful situations. Participants will learn a strategy to control their anxiety, build resilience, and increase thought control during these moments. This will be a helpful session for individuals who struggle with anxiety or just want to be proactive by finding ways to be more resilient in their day to day lives.

Hartford Happiness Club
The time has come to spread happiness in Hartford CT! I recently graduated with certification in Positive Psychology from the Wholebeing Institute taught by Tal Ben Shahar. I am excited to share and continue to grow as a lifelong learner giving my life meaning and purpose. My studies include a Masters of Arts in Experiential Health and Healing from the Graduate Institute in 2008. Dr. Bernie Siegel was my mentor who put me on a path to learn, grow and share. Bernie taught me how to take life and all it is complexities and make it simple. Through Bernie, I met founder of the Happiness Club Lionel Ketchian at a workshop.
It was at this point where I was introduced to The Happiness Clubs. I never looked back. Lionel was put on this earth to plant seeds of happiness around the world. I am humbled to have Lionel in my life and be part of something larger than life.
