"The Beatitudes and Emotional Health"

The ultimate blessing of the Beatitudes is to have our hearts changed so that we become like Christ. Studies in the relatively new field of positive psychology have shown we can generate our own positive emotions as we change negative thinking patterns to experience greater happiness, productivity, and intimacy. As we follow the Beatitudes, we learn to shun thoughts that darken our minds and resist feelings that harden our hearts. The Beatitudes help us create joy and loving relationships as we open our minds to thoughts that are true, light, and edifying and open our hearts to emotions productive emotions.
