Episode 98: Aim for Contentment — Not Happiness: A Guided Meditation Practice with Judy Tsuei
Show Notes

Embracing the shift from happiness to contentment has been a profound journey. Thanks to therapy, I've discovered the power of being fully present in moments of joy and gathered them as memories to buoy me when times get tough — this is how we cultivate hope. 

Remember, there's no shame in seeking the help we need.

In this episode, I'll explain more about what Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) is and how becoming a Master Practitioner of the Mental Emotional Release technique, NLP, and hypnotherapy has transformed my life.  

You'll discover how the concept of 'away motivation' versus 'toward motivation' in neuro linguistic programming is a game-changer. 

As an entrepreneur and woman of color, I know how vital it is to take up space and celebrate our achievements, to relish our moments of happiness, to give ourselves permission to play and dream, and to envision our success vividly. 

The episode finishes with a simple mindfulness practice to encourage you to collect moments of happiness to build your contentment, too. 

Highlights include:

  • Judy's pursuit of happiness and fear of happiness as a daughter of immigrants
  • How to shift your mindset towards contentment instead of constant happiness
  • Inside therapy sessions, including diagnosis of anxiety and prescription medication
  • Tools gained through neuro linguistic programming coaching program
  • Recent achievements and certifications in mental emotional release, neuro linguistic programming (NLP), and hypnotherapy
  • Exploration of different therapeutic modalities and tools
