    Kočičí terapie. Kočičí návod na štěstí
    • Lidé si vytváří moře problémů, což pozoruji nejen já, ale i všechny kočkovité šelmy. Neustále se honí za novými úkoly, jako by jim život, který žijí, nestačil. Hledají „štěstí“, ale vědí, co to skutečně znamená? Naštěstí jsme tu my, kočky, které jedí, pijí a spí, když mají potřebu. Žijeme přítomností, okamžik za okamžikem, a nepotřebujeme se zavděčit nikomu kromě sebe. Tím obšťastňujeme i ty kolem nás a chápeme, co znamená být šťastný. Toto je v souladu s učením mindfulness, uměním vědomého prožívání přítomnosti, které kočky praktikují odjakživa. Kdyby se lidé naučili nás lépe pozorovat, svět by byl klidnější. Sigmund Freud už řekl, že „čas strávený s kočkou není nikdy ztraceným časem“. Kočičí terapie je sedmitýdenní program, který spojuje mindfulness s moudrostí našich kočkovitých přátel. Když začneme praktikovat jejich jednoduché rady, naučíme se být spojeni s každodenním životem a žít přítomností. Objevíme krásu, která nás obklopuje, a tím, že znovu nalezneme chuť štěstí, se osvobodíme od stresu.
