You're going to be. Welcome to the happiness podcast. I'm Dr. Robert Puff.

The focus of this podcast is on how to be happy, how to live a happy life, and not just with moments

of happiness, but with real happiness, happiness that permeates our days, our

weeks, our years, our lifetime. This is the happiness that we're pursuing.

But sometimes, sometimes in life we go through really challenging times,

challenging times to make it very difficult to be happy. It's not that we don't believe

it's possible to be happy. It's just because what's going on right now makes it very challenging to have hope to be happy,

to believe that in the end everything's going to work out for the best. What can we do during these very challenging

times? And I'd like to share something with you that I think will be very helpful if you

right now are going through that time.

Perhaps you're going through a breakup or divorce.

Perhaps someone you love has left you.

Perhaps you're losing things like a business, like a home.

Perhaps you're struggling with some illness, whether psychological, spiritual,

or physical. There's many things that we go through that are challenging for us.

And if we don't know what to do, I want to teach something that I've used over the years that has been very helpful for me.

And what it is is steeping, steeping myself in something that gives me hope.

And it's a very simple phrase.

It's a phrase that I cling on to when I go through hard times and I think you may find it helpful too.

I hope you do.

When I'm struggling, I don't want something complicated. I want something easy that will help me right now

And that simple phrase is all is well. All is well. I listen to it. I say it over and over again.
