FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:  The ‘Enchantress’ of Positive Psychology Tells Her Story

Ocean, NJ – July, 2002:  Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein, Author, Life Coach, and Originator of THE ENCHANTED SELF, hosts an inspirational/self-help program that will help you focus on how to feel good about yourself.

Dr. Holstein appears regularly on New York 's monthly cable TV show called Prime Time Life: Uniquely You Now.  Interested viewers can tune in on Wednesday, July 10, 2002 at 7:30 PM EST to UHF channels 27 and 35.  This show will also be rebroadcast on Wednesday, July 24, 2002 on cable 67 in Manhattan at 6:00 PM .

Dr. Holstein will be discussing how she came to be named the ‘Enchantress’ of positive psychology and how the title gave her the necessary energy and endurance to release her creativity.  She will also be explaining why she has chosen this name for herself by revisiting her work over the last 20 years in private practice as a psychologist and how the energy around naming a concept or one’s self is activated.  Dr. Holstein further discusses how being blessed with such names that work for us give us the ability to truly enjoy our lives and give them meaning, hope, joy and purpose.  These are lives of well-being and ‘enchantment’!

Dr. Holstein has been a psychologist in private practice since 1981.  Through the practice that she shares with her husband, Dr. Russell Holstein, they have created a long overdue shift in psychology by emphasizing what's right with us, rather than what's wrong.  She offers a new way of looking at your life ... your own 'enchanted self'.  Her goal is to inspire and encourage you to achieve your positive states of mind, body, and spirit.
