AVON, Conn., Feb. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- "How many of us have stopped long enough to find out what really gives meaning to our lives?" asks author Carol Stansfield. "How many of us can respond to the simple question 'What makes me happy?'"
The answer? Not many at all. But Stansfield is ready to change all that and present a new way of living with her empowering new book, "Beyond Survival: Seven Principles for Creating the Life You Want" (published by AuthorHouse -- http://www.authorhouse.com/).
"We have become so focused on the world around us, we have forgotten the answers are within us," Stansfield, a life coach and founder of the Center for Life Mastery, explains. "Our foundation gets built on what others think, expect and desire of us, and we lose our power and ourselves to everyone else."
Stansfield believes that many of us feel lost, "enslaved to others for the love and acceptance we can no longer provide for ourselves." Her seven powerful, life-changing principles - Letting Go of Ego, Empowerment, Being Yourself, Acceptance, Love, Joy and Understanding - work to squelch this enslavement and build a strong foundation for standing firm in who and what we are. They are not "gimmicky quick fixes" but timeless, awareness-changing principles.
"As you understand one you will touch upon all the others," Stansfield says of the principles. "When each is understood and integrated into your life, you will find the happiness and joy that lie within you. Then it is a matter of living from that place of perfection - from the inside out."
No longer can we choose power and greed over our own happiness. We have sold our souls to the bottom line and it has cost us. We are exhausted, overwhelmed, overworked, unhealthy, stressed and unhappy. Most of us cannot even connect to our feelings anymore. We are sleepwalking through life in survival mode. This is not living! This is not joy! Happiness blooms from within. It comes from accepting our own inner greatness and from allowing ourselves the freedom to just be -- unlimited.
Stansfield writes just as she coaches. With humility and humor, she offers a practical, down-to-earth approach for living from within.
Carol Stansfield holds Master of Arts and Master of Business Administration degrees from the University of Connecticut. In 2001, she founded the Center for Life Mastery, a multi-purpose center that offers classes and workshops, as well as personal and group coaching sessions, all focused on evolving human consciousness through self-awareness, spiritual understanding and personal transformation.
