Join local author, Jude Bijou, for an evening to discuss and hear readings from her newly published book, Attitude Reconstruction: A Blueprint for Building a Better Life. The book is a manual to transform Sadness, Anger and Fear to Joy, Love, and Peace. Jude has developed a five-minute, practical system for better thoughts, intuition, communication, and action to remedy problems, including:
* coping with unsolicited advice * dealing with indecision * enlivening one’s social life * clarifying priorities
* improving staff morale * responding to sarcasm * requesting a well-deserved raise.
A marriage and family therapist, as well as a longtime student of Eastern philosophy, Bijou developed the ideas behind Attitude Reconstruction while working with clients to help them lead more fulfilling lives. She explains that every feeling derives from six primary emotions— sadness, anger, fear, joy, love, and peace.
Bijou believes that joy, love, and peace are fundamental aspects of our spiritual nature, and that all emotions spring from the human condition. When people allow sadness, anger, and fear to reign free, it corrupts their bodies, behaviors, minds, and overall sense of well-being. Stress runs rampant, and unreleased emotions can fuel addictions and violence.
