Access Psychology in the Media: Mrs Simpson and the great romance

Fix what you have instead of envying others – a note on I. independent Review magazine piece 

In an article entitled “How Wallis and her sex games entranced a king” (Irish Independent Review magazine, Sat 27th August 2011) Dublin psychologist Susannah Healy comments on how sex can be used for power.  However a comment by Mrs Simpson is a lesson for us all “You have no idea how hard it is to live out a great romance”.  Even in matters not related to romantic relationships it’s important to remember that all that glitters is not gold ; instead of envying others’ lives fix what’s not working in your life, when you can’t, ask for help from people whose expertise could benefit you.  For more visit http://www.accesspsychology.ie/
