When Seth Eisenberg set out to write The Road of Happiness Now — Yodi Companion Guide, he wasn’t just creating another self-help book. He was continuing a profound legacy that began with psychiatrist Daniel Casriel, whose pioneering research into human bonding reshaped our understanding of emotional health, addiction, and the very nature of happiness.
More than five decades ago, Dr. Casriel proposed a radical, yet beautifully simple idea: Bonding is a basic biological need, as essential to human well-being as food and shelter. His work offered new hope to people struggling with emotional pain, compulsive behaviors, and fractured relationships. Through group therapy and emotional re-education, he witnessed thousands of lives transformed.
Seth Eisenberg, a PAIRS Master Trainer and President/CEO of Purpose Built Families Foundation, was deeply influenced by Casriel’s teachings. Over years of working with individuals, couples, families, veterans, and youth, Eisenberg evolved those insights into practical tools that anyone could learn and use. The result is The Road of Happiness Now — Yodi Companion Guide, a comprehensive manual for people who are ready to create lasting change in their lives and relationships.
A Map for the Emotional Journey
The book weaves together 50 essential concepts—what Eisenberg calls “Conversations that Matter.” Topics include:
- Bonding as a Lifelong Practice
- How frustrated emotional needs shape personality
- Emotional expression and literacy
- Breaking cycles of blame and frustration
- Creating emotional safety and trust in relationships
But it’s not just theory. The Yodi Companion Guide is packed with practical exercises such as the Daily Temperature Reading, Emptying the Emotional Jug, and tools for conflict resolution, confiding, and clarifying expectations. These skills empower individuals and couples to reconnect, heal emotional wounds, and build resilience.
Why It Matters Now
“Too many people were never taught how to sustain love and connection,” Eisenberg says. “We grow up learning math, science, and history, but rarely how to deal with feelings like anger, shame, loneliness, and fear. This guide changes that.”
The book’s release is especially timely. Loneliness, anxiety, and relationship breakdowns have reached crisis levels. The Road of Happiness Now doesn’t offer quick fixes or platitudes—it provides a path for developing the emotional muscles necessary for lasting happiness.
Yodi: A Digital Coach for Real-World Change
In a groundbreaking move, the book integrates with Yodi, an AI-powered relationship coach available through the www.MyPAIRSCoach.com. Yodi guides users through many of the book’s exercises, offering a 24/7 digital partner for those committed to practicing what they learn.
The Legacy Continues
Dr. Casriel’s early work planted the seeds. Eisenberg’s guide ensures they keep growing.
“Dan Casriel helped us understand that love isn’t just something that happens to us—it’s something we do,” Eisenberg says. “This book is for anyone ready to start doing the work of love, healing, and creating the happiness we all deserve.”
