Many people come to therapy saying:
“I just want to be happy.”
But happiness isn’t a constant emotional state. It’s not something we arrive at and stay in.
It’s a byproduct of alignment.
When people feel stressed, their instinct is often:
“I need to manage my time better.”
“I need to try harder.”
“I need to be more disciplined.”
But stress management isn’t always about productivity hacks. It’s about regulation.
