 Health & Happiness

This group of blog posts (articles) focuses on health and happiness, including building confidence and resilience, managing daily stress, regulating emotions, establishing effective relationships, handling criticism, problem-solving, and many more.  They were the titles of some of my workshops and the discussions we had during the training sessions from 2022 to 2025.  I will continue to update these articles and add new ones to the collection to ensure they remain valid and helpful.

Health and happiness are crucial aspects of a successful and fulfilling life.  They significantly impact our overall well-being, enabling us to live our lives to the fullest, to enjoy our experiences, and to make positive contributions to our community.  Research has shown that happy people tend to be healthier, and good health can contribute to increased happiness, creating a positive upward spiral.

What destroys our confidence?

Confidence has several meanings, but here I consider it the feeling or belief that we can trust or rely on our ability to do something skilfully or competently. For example, “I am a confident swimmer” or “I am not a confident dancer.”

In this sense, confidence is not a fixed state. It’s a dynamic continuum that can be influenced and improved. We all have confidence in some areas but need it in others.
