The Happiness Advantage by Shawn Achor ⭐⭐⭐ // It was an interesting light read. My favorite part is that's based in a lot of studies and has an easy way to understand how our brains work. Enjoyed it. Here are some takeaways: 🙃 There is no single meaning; happiness is relative to the person experiencing it. This is why scientists often refer to it as “subjective well-being”—because it’s based on how we each feel about our own lives.2 In essence, the best judge of how happy you are is you. 🙃 Constantly scanning the world for the negative comes with a great cost. It undercuts our creativity, raises our stress levels, and lowers our motivation and ability to accomplish goals. 🙃 Our best weapon in the battle against bad habits [...] is simply to make it harder for ourselves to succumb to them. #goodtimes #goodvibes #bookworm #happiness #reading #yas #shawnachor #advantage #brain #habits #learning #Rewire #wellnbeing #positive #negative #happinessadvantage https://www.instagram.com/p/CRnLlNFDSMH/?utm_medium=tumblr

Why GratefulUnicornMadre?

Seems that my first ‘real post’ about this adventure should offer a little context and provide some referents for a few of the items that may occasionally come up in this blog. I am GratefulUnicornMadre for the following reasons: I had the good fortune to attend a 1-day conference hosted by the Greater Good Science Center (UC Berkeley) in November 2017 focused on instilling gratitude in the workplace (thank you, WCSD SEL Coordinator, for seeing the value of this topic!). Hands down BEST conference I’ve ever attended, but I think largely b/c the folks who self-select to such an event likely share recognition around the power of gratitude and its relationship to happiness/positivity. Being surrounded by others who can speak both personally and professionally to the significant impact embracing this simple ethos can have/has had was inspiring! So, I aspire to incorporate gratitude into daily life ... thus, grateful as a part of my handle ... and, is why I will choose to highlight aspects of this experience/our lives that prompt appreciation, gratitude, and thanks!  

Closely connected to the first descriptor is the ‘symbol’ that my school colleagues of the past couple years have come to know as representative of ‘considering the lens through which we interpret situations, events, experiences and life.’ We watched the Shawn Achor/Happiness Advantage TedTalk more times than anyone probably wanted to (except me!) ... in which he recounts a story about his sister falling off a bunk bed & how before she could scream in pain, he helped to reframe this event by suggesting that no human being could have landed on all 4’s that way ... she must be a unicorn! ... & how this quickly shifted her interpretation/experience of the event. We challenged each other to ‘be the unicorn’ through intentionally bringing a lens of positivity to our work in a very tough school community. While that was the selected theme for the 2016-17 school year, it evolved and remained a beacon reminder for hope, positivity, and bringing the lens of optimism and common goals to our work. And, while I was never the little girl who was fascinated by unicorns (if I had fallen off a bunk bed, someone would have had to quickly tell me that if I landed on all 4’s, I must be a professional football player on the line about to go into my 3-point stance!), I now own unicorn leggings and socks and T-shirts and a necklace among many other novelty items, some of which remain at the school as quasi-mascots and others that are retained by or passed around the staff. The unicorn lives! 

How are unicorns and gratitude closely connected as was suggested in the previous paragraph? Turns out that one of the ‘practices’ Shawn Achor (and lots of other positive psychologists) identifies in the Happiness Advantage is taking the time to be grateful every day ... gratitude is one variable that leads to being a happier (and, ultimately, more successful) person. So, I take the first two parts of my handle from The Greater Good Science Center & Shawn Achor, appreciating the aspects that overlap. 

Connected to the second descriptor is my selection of madre. Turns out that ‘unicorn moms’ are a thing (again, about which, I would likely NEVER have stumbled upon, but was brought to me by a close colleague & friend at school). And, when I looked up the definition of a unicorn mom & I read more references about them (and their kind hearts and fierce souls!), I decided that this pretty accurately reflects my identity, so am proud to join the ranks of other unicorn moms out there. (The only unicorn themed items that I have actually purchased for myself are a couple unicorn mom shirts!). One of the best parts of this adventure for me is that I have more time to focus on being a madre. I have always felt stretched in ways that translate to me not feeling like I was doing my best with anything ... being a friend, being an educator, being someone who takes time for herself, being a wife, being a leader, or being a mom. Many demands that I am/was not always good at balancing ... so, I am excited to have a year where I get to invest a lot more energy into being a madre. Thus, I chose madre to associate with unicorn moms & to reflect my greater commitment to mothering my boys (and, well, I’m in Chile so here I am a madre rather than a mom).

Yes, this is really supposed to be about our family’s adventure living in Chile for a year, so let’s get on with it already ...
