Das Leben ist nicht immer nett zu uns. Und in jedem Leben gibt es schwierige Zeiten. Vielleicht haben Sie gerade Ihren Job verloren. Ein geliebter Mensch wird plötzlich krank. Oder Sie stecken mitten in der Scheidung. Vielleicht haben Sie das Gefühl, daß nichts mehr rund läuft und daß das Glück Sie einfach vergessen hat. Verzweifeln Sie nicht! Sie können sich nicht immer aussuchen, was passiert. Aber Sie können entscheiden, wie Sie damit umgehen. Sie haben die Wahl, stark oder schwach zu sein. Sie haben die Wahl, im Unglück zu verharren oder nach vorn zu schauen. „Werden Sie ein Vorwärtsdenker.“ Lernen Sie anhand anschaulicher Bilder, wie man negative Verhaltensmuster durchbricht und warum es so wichtig ist, sein Unglück in drei Sätzen zusammenzufassen. Menschen, die eine schwierige Situation gemeistert haben, sind danach oft stärker, erfahrener und sogar glücklicher. Die amerikanische Bestsellerautorin Karen Salmansohn hat die Erkenntnisse von Glücksforschung, moderner Psychologie und Medizin, abendländischer Philosophie und fernöstlicher Weisheit plakativ auf den Punkt gebracht und zeigt uns die besten Wege aus der Krise.
