Ahh, the warm feeling of contentment! The cozy hug of satisfaction, joy, and pleasure is a treasured place. Who doesn’t love that?! ⁠
⁠
We can put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be happy. Like all emotions, happiness is a state - which means it’s transient and changes. So, we can’t be happy ALL the time, despite whatever new fad out there claims. It’s healthy to experience a range of emotions!⁠
⁠
Lots of people feel the goal of therapy is “to be happy.” While that can be a way to look at it, a more accurate goal is to feel balanced. It's important to remember that happiness has lots of facets unique to each person and isn’t just a steady state of mind that we get to. Therapy can help you find what gets in the way of feeling happy or the judgments and ideas we hold about happiness.⁠
