"The How of Happiness" class with Greg Bravo
Based on the book, The How of Happiness by Sonja Lyubomirsky.
"The How of Happiness is a different kind of happiness book, one that offers a comprehensive guide to understanding what happiness is, and isn't, and what can be done to bring us all closer to the happy life we envision for ourselves. Using more than a dozen uniquely formulated happiness-increasing strategies, The How of Happiness offers a new and potentially life-changing way to understand our innate potential for joy and happiness as well as our ability to sustain it in our lives."
"The Four Whys" Process with Rev. Therese Lee
Rev. Therese will facilitate this session on Friday night and will also be our guest speaker on Sunday, Feb. 28.
