About this title

Synopsis

Each of us is a product of programming, of learned and unconscious responses to ordinary moments in our day that can generate negative emotions and drain us of energy. Someone cuts us off in traffic and we respond with anger, a response that is learned and automatic. We worry about events that will never arise. We allow an off-hand criticism to reach our deepest insecurities. And all of it feeds negative emotions that fester in our minds. Many books will approach such issues by sharing a wisdom that can be quickly forgotten shortly after the book is put down. Odyssey: The Living Moment is not meant to simply be read and then placed on a shelf. It is a program to be followed, each day, for three weeks, in order to train your brain to automatically react to triggers of negative emotions with a response that generates a higher and more positive emotion. Odyssey: The Living Moment is the product of Russell R. Hassler's years of research and consulting work, and it describes The Odyssey Methodology that formed the basis of his practice, and his own life. Each chapter represents a day's lesson and contains an exercise to be completed, with the goal of creating new habits that result in more positive automatic emotional responses.

About the Author

RUSSELL R. HASSLER lived The Odyssey Methodology. It was the journey he took throughout his own life before sharing it with others in a consulting practice in Sydney, Australia. Russell went through life with a curiosity to new ideas, a respect for wisdom from our past, and an openness to challenging accepted notions. Those same attitudes guided him through the final stage of his journey after he returned to the U.S. to complete the last rewrites of this book-a battle with a rare and incurable cancer. It was a fight that he faced with a combination of fierceness, optimism and wonder, and it was his wish that this book be allowed to reach others who might benefit from his work.
