About Dr. Raja
Raja Mishal, Ph.D. is a former Assistant Professor at Dalhousie University, and a former Clinical Director of the HLA Laboratory at Nova Scotia Health Authority, Halifax, Nova Scotia. Dr. Raja was awarded several National and Provincial awards for her scientific research and publications. Her doctoral thesis was centred around the role that nature and nurture play in the development of neuronal connections in the brain.
She was fascinated with the concept but did not fully comprehend its implication in one’s life until years down the road when she was diagnosed with mental illness. That is when she realized that while genetics play an important role in our lives, it does not determine our fate and future if we choose to be happy and attain excellence.
On her journey to happiness, she acquired a variety of tools from different fields that supported her healing, be happy, and made her strive for excellence. Today, she shares her passion, knowledge, and experience with others through her Happiness & Excellences Mentoring Programs which are offered in twolanguages, English, and Arabic.
Dr. Raja is also a speaker, author, and screen play writer. She is the author of “Shift to Shine: Bridging Science and Intuition,” “Make Up Don’t Break Up,” and the forthcoming book “Happy Now: A Journey to the other side of Depression.”
She is passionate about supporting families and youth to achieve excellence and happiness through providing parent and family educational workshops and programs. In her spare time, she paints and practices mindful happiness meditation.

Happy Now
A Journey to the Other Side of Depression is about the author’s journey with depression.
More Details
In this book, she describes depression as a guest “The Ghoul” that planted its seeds at an early age of her life. It played the hide and seek game way into her adult life until one day she realized that the hiding part of the game was over. This guest is here to stay and to occupy every aspect of her unhappy life. That is when she started the seeking part of the game with only one condition to get to the other side of depression. The only path she can take was to go on an internal journey of self-discovery and transformation. The author speaks about her life experiences with small accumulated traumatic events, political instability and wars, cultural upbringing and accepted social norms, negative thoughts, and hidden beliefs that got her into depression and how she was able to kick “The Ghoul” guest out of her life and be happy.
