Positive words create the foundation for Happiness Skills.

Each thought you have creates an emotional response.  Your thoughts are made up of words, which means the words you choose to think directly affect how you feel. This includes the words you hear from people around you, in movies, tv shows, the news, even music you listen to. The words you read are also a source for what you are thinking. What you say comes right back inside of you too!  So choose to say, hear, read and think positive words. Which person do you want to be and to be around?  The positive uplifting one or the negative downer.  Make that choice and support yourself by choosing the words in your life carefully.

Living according you your Values guides and supports your happiness.
