Happiness is such a broad and complex topic. Yet, from what I see we have three main ways to find happiness.
- First Level: Aiming for a result. We think we will be happy when we get a certain outcome (job, location, money, health, relationship etc.) This is the level we most think about. It is flawed because: when we think that, we are seeking salvation in the future; sometimes we can’t get what we want; and even when we do, we’re not always happy.
- Second Level: Cognitive behavioural approach. Reframing and changing our thoughts and managing our emotions from moment to moment. This is the personal development approach. It works very well but it has its limitations.
- Third Level: Bypassing the thoughts and connecting to a deeper presence and consciousness. This method takes practice (meditation, mindfulness, presence…) but it’s worth it! With it comes great inner peace, joy, and deeper happiness. This is the spiritual approach and it knows no limitations, once you’re able to tap into it!
