Chronic Unhappiness?
Gateway Rehab to Host Event Honoring Dr. Abraham Twerski and His Latest Book, “Happiness and the Human Spirit”

PITTSBURGH – Gateway Rehabilitation Center invites the public to honor its founder and medical director emeritus, Dr. Abraham Twerski, and celebrate his latest book, “Happiness and the Human Spirit: The Spirituality of Becoming the Best You Can Be,” from 7 to 9 p.m. on Tuesday, October 23, at the Sheraton Station Square Hotel, 300 West Station Square Drive, Pittsburgh.

More than a handbook for living a happier life, Dr. Twerski’s new book is viewed as a treasure map that leads one beyond self-centered contentment to realizing one’s full potential as a human being.  “True happiness comes when you choose – again and again – to be the best person you can be,” wrote Dr. Twerski in his book.

 “Happiness and the Human Spirit,” published by Jewish Lights, supplies the missing link in the pursuit of happiness by giving us the tools we need to satisfy our human spirits. Using simple, accessible language and clear examples, this wellspring of wisdom illustrates that true happiness is attainable when we stop looking outside ourselves for the source. Instead, happiness can be found within us, when we exercise our unique human abilities such as gratitude, humility, compassion, and generosity that are the components of the human spirit.

According to Betty Ford, former first lady and founder of the Betty Ford Treatment Center, Dr. Twerski’s new book, “Provides us with an understanding of our spiritual side…It’s like a conversation with a warm and trusted friend.”
