In this touching 4 minute clip with Conan, Louis CK invites us all to look for and welcome sad moments. He reminds us we are lucky to be sad and cry ‘like bitches’ because as soon as we stop crying true, profound happiness comes rushing in. Sound familiar? This is what my book Emotional Medicine Rx: Cry When You’re Sad, Stop When You’re Done, Feel Good Fast (EMRx) is all about! LA Times columnist Meghan Daum called C.K. a modern day ‘holy man’ and proposed that watching clips like these is a form of secular church going. In that case, I invite you to consider my book, EMRx, your ‘bible’ for learning how sad, mad, scared emotions can all be delivery systems for ‘true, profound, happiness’.
