It's not so much a situation that brings unhappiness, but rather our perception of a situation.
Mindfulness/acceptance practice is grounded in applying more nonreactive acceptance to daily living; particularly when it comes to daily dilemmas that we can't control. In this new book, Rock and Water maintains the strong point of view that happiness is not enhanced by more talk about happiness, but by applying these conscious -hands-on- techniques that help us to cope with the inner sources of unhappiness---- this is the core of what cognitive and acceptance-based skills are all about.
These skills are based primarily on current research and practice in the fields of cognitive-behavioral psychology and mindfulness/acceptance, two disciplines that have mostly been isolated from each other. Rock and Water is research-based and practical, while also being philosophical and personal; and includes several narratives from the life experiences of a wide variety of prominent people in history (Viktor Frankl, Rosa Parks, Nelson Mandela, Audrey Hepburn, Mohandas Gandhi and many others).
