NESTLÉ® LA LECHERA® Celebrates International Day Of Happiness
Celebrity Mom and Certified Master Life Coach Laura Posada to Share Happiness Tips
GLENDALE, Calif., March 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- March 20 commemorates International Day of Happiness, a celebration instituted by the United Nations to further the idea that happiness is a fundamental human right and everyone deserves the chance at a happy, healthy life. Since 2012, NESTLÉ® LA LECHERA® Sweetened Condensed Milk has brought this belief to life through "Recipes for Happiness," a campaign to inspire consumers to make desserts that lead to moments of happiness for themselves and their families.
This year, NESTLÉ® LA LECHERA® is celebrating International Day of Happiness by partnering with certified master life coach and celebrity mom Laura Posada to share advice on how women can achieve happiness for themselves and their families.
1. Be your number one fan and love yourself no matter what
For other people to start appreciating you, you have to value and appreciate yourself first. Once you discover how much you're worth everyone else will see it.
2. Forgive and move on, leave the past behind
Holding grudges and resentment holds you back from achieving happiness. You can't change the things that happened in your life, but you can decide how you interpret and respond to them. Don't cling to negative feelings, you need to let go in order to move forward.
3. Be in control of your mind! Remind yourself every day you are strong and stay positive
A positive attitude and mindset attracts success. Reinforce positive thoughts and behaviors and don't focus on the negative. Tell yourself you are doing a great job at work, raising your children or whatever you do. Appreciate your hard work and remind yourself you can achieve anything you want.
4. Stop thinking and start doing, lose fear
See challenges as stepping stones to overcome your fears and obstacles. Many times we don't do the things we want because of fear of failing. Understand that failing is learning and an opportunity to improve and do better next time.
5. Appreciate the journey and enjoy life. Choose happiness, you deserve it
In order to find happiness you have to find balance in your life, find time for yourself and discover what fulfills you. Those who believe don't deserve happiness will sabotage their own efforts to achieve it. Remind yourself every day the steps you need to take to achieve the happiness you deserve.
"The pursuit of happiness is an ongoing human goal and moms, particularly, are at the core of providing happiness and well-being for their families," said Priscila Stanton, Marketing Manager for La Lechera at Nestlé USA. "At Nestlé, we understand the role that desserts play in making loved ones smile, and La Lechera has been bringing happy moments throughout the brand's history. We hope to inspire many moms to share a sweet treat with their family on this special day."
