The Intrinsic Practice
The Intrinsic Practice
The Intrinsic Practice, developed by Dr. Jacques Bradwejn, is a method used to enhance one’s ability to experience happiness. The method consists of six steps that build upon one another, and each step includes tools and templates. The six steps are (1) setting up my practice, (2) defining my happiness, (3) knowing myself, (4) knowing my world, (5) envisioning my happiness and (6) opting for my happiness.
