The Way to Happiness Aims Messages of Peace to the City of Nashville

The Way to Happiness is working to inspire all residents of Nashville and Middle Tennessee with messages of peace and hope.

Nashville, TN, April 09, 2015 --(PR.com)-- While Nashville prepares itself to be the next $100 billion dollar city, 19% of those living in the area remain in poverty, according to a recent article in the Tennessean newspaper. Nashville’s economy ranks as one of the fastest-growing in the country, according to a report on metro economies released at the United States Conference of Mayors in 2014. Yet at the same time, 122,527 residents live in poverty, and more than 39,000 Nashville households try to get by with annual income of less than $15,000.

“We are trying to work with people of all levels to improve morale and happiness,” says a volunteer for the program, “this book helps to bring about increased production and survival in people who read and understand it.”

The Way to Happiness Campaign is centered around the book of the same name by L. Ron Hubbard, which is comprised of 21 precepts, each one predicated on the fact that one’s survival depends on the survival of others—and that without the survival of others, neither joy nor happiness are attainable. In the two decades since it was authored, some 80 million copies of the book passed hand to hand, thus inspiring an international movement.

In Nashville, the local chapter of The Way To Happiness Foundation is reaching out and offering seminars and free copies of the booklet.

To accompany the booklet, there is an entire film which illustrates the book’s concepts. The film is presented in the spirit of the book itself, which is a road map to a happier life through values of compassion and caring. Additionally there is an educator’s guide book and materials are available to supplement the use of the films in a classroom environment which are available by request.

Chapter members want people to know that teaching positive spiritual values and a moral way of life has been out of vogue -- it’s time for to bring back the higher standards our society once ascribed to. For more information, visit thewaytohappiness.org.
