Do you believe we all have complete freedom? Complete. Freedom. When Viktor Frankl (Man's Search For Meaning) said that even when the Nazi's were torturing his body, he still had ultimate freedom to choose, what did he mean? Was he simply an exceptional human being with something special about him that no one else has? And If we all have this capacity, how do we tap into it every day?

My guest is Kara Stamback, whose work is based on Three Principles Psychology; we will talk about what ultimate psychological freedom means and just how accessible it is.

Kara Stamback, M.S., is a teacher, counselor, consultant and facilitator in principle-based psychology. She is an Associate at www.pranskyandassociates.com

Who decides what's possible for you at any given time?  Are 'impossible dreams' just fantasies or are they challenges?  And if they are challenges, what would it take to do something you are yearning to do?

I look at the limits of our beliefs, the barriers of perfectionism and striving and the works of Gay Hendricks (The Big Leap), Michael Neill and Barbara Sher. 
 
What's impossible comes straight from how we think and what we decide.  In this show I explore how to shimmy right over those limits.

Interesting in doing more?  The reading list and suggested practices are here in Ideas and Tips

Robert Holden introduced me to the notion of there being a world of difference between the 'pursuit of happiness' and 'following your joy'. In the show I talk about Robert's work, the purpose of happiness, limits we place on our happiness and how and why we learned to be unhappy.  I read from Michael Neill's Feel Happy Now, and Barry Neil Kaufmans' To Love is To Be Happy With'.

Suggested exercise for this week:  Take your happiness temperature.  How happy are you on a scale of 1 to 10 (ten being unreasonably joyous)?  Find a moment or two during the week when you consciously and deliberately raise your Happiness Thermometer just a bit. You don't have to aim for the moon!  And you don't need a reason.   Notice what it takes to do deliberately raise your level.

The last show with Robert on June 5th. We'll pick up where we left off last time as Robert invites us to let go of our limits to happiness.

Robert is a pioneer in the field of positive psychology and well-being.  His book Be Happy is one of the best books I've read this year.
