Chandra Ellington is the founder of “Choose Happiness & Civility.” She is a Certified Stress Management Coach and Happiness Coach. She also holds a Master of Business Management degree. The company’s mission is to enhance the quality of people’s life by coaching them on the wonderful Art of Happiness, Emotional Intelligence, Stress Management, and Social/Business Etiquette through speaking engagements, freelance writing, and an online Choose Happiness & Civility eClub on Facebook.
Having experienced personal hardships and working in high-pressured administrative jobs for over two decades, Chandra has had more than her fair share of stress and unhappiness. After experiencing chest pains and migraines from excessive workloads and worry, she decided there had to be a way to manage stress and anxiety to prevent it from harming her health. She studied stress management and positive psychology and applied the techniques she learned to minimize negative emotions through the use of relaxation techniques and mental training. She now wants to help other people find ways to enjoy life despite the challenges they face.
Let Chandra inspire and encourage you to accept a positive view of life and deal with the things that you cannot change. One of her favorite quotes is:
“Life handed him a lemon,
As Life sometimes will do.
His friends looked on in pity,
Assuming he was through.
They came upon him later,
Reclining in the shade
In calm contentment, drinking
A glass of lemonade.”
