In Realizing Happiness: A Self-Help Journey and Reflections, the author reveals her pathway from hurting-to-wholehearted-happiness. By asking open-ended Self-Check Questions throughout her story, Alwine Canning invites her readers to look beyond the “usual trappings” of happiness to a place of self-respect and personal examination.
She draws from her own struggles and triumphs as a wife/life partner, mother, grandmother, business owner, friend, and spiritual seeker, to offer a clear roadmap for anyone determined to break free from their cycles of temporary satisfaction. While sharing her personal stories, practical wisdom, and spiritual insights, she lays out what became her transformative path to cultivating intentional, authentic, and sustainable happiness.
Chapter-by-chapter, she shows how she combines her faith, self-work, purposeful choices, habits, and actions to create the foundation to support her lasting happiness. Her straight-forward approach offers a pathway for her readers to join her in overcoming a victim mentality, embracing forgiveness, facing one’s fears, and being empowered by their choices and habits.
Realizing Happiness is NOT just another self-help book — it is your personal companion on your journey into greater happiness and authentic joy. Within the author’s offered framework, you can realize a life filled with your own genuine happiness and purpose.
Take time to explore your personal path to lasting happiness. Affect the rest of your life!
