Use the Good Dishes(tm): Finding Joy in Everyday Life

By Elaine Dembe

Are you waiting for an event in the future to make you happy? Postponing joy until you meet the right person, until you have more time, or until you have enough money? Older and wiser, Dr. Elaine Dembe has learned that joy is not contingent on any one thing, but that life itself is a celebration for those who are aware of the happiness that can be found in everyday life. In Use the Good Dishes, Dr. Dembe relates her thoughts, and the insights of dozens of extraordinary "sages," on how to create a joyful path for our life journey. With inimitable honesty and humour, Dr. Dembe provides a map for those ready to embark on a more spiritual quest and ready to learn what really matters as we age. Dr. Dembe shows us how to value the process over the outcome, how to embrace change, how to cherish all experiences, even the painful ones, and how to celebrate the ordinary moments that befall us every day. She shows us that when we "use the good dishes," we are well on the way to awakening within ourselves the true meaning of joy. Use the Good Dishes features wisdom from: Mickey Rooney, Deepak Chopra, June Callwood, Dr. Robert Salter, and many more.
