My Handbook For Happiness

Happiness is a habit. For some of us, that habit is a natural inclination; for others, it is a learned behavior. The Mayo Clinic Handbook for Happiness combines wisdom from neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, and spirituality to help you choose contentment. Dr. Amit Sood's actionable ten–week program has helped tens of thousands of people reduce anxiety and find greater fulfillment in life. Each of the book's four sections is filled with practical insights and easy–to–implement exercises. You'll understand why your brain struggles with finding happiness and what real–world practices can help you to better manage stress and choose peace and contentment instead. Praise for the Stress–Free Living Program: “This book can change your life.”–Dr. Andrew Weil “An important innovative approach to well-being.”–Dr. Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence

What if you could change your life--without changing your life? Gretchen had a good marriage, two healthy daughters, and work she loved--but one day, stuck on a city bus, she realized that time was flashing by, and she wasn’t thinking enough about the things that really mattered. “I should have a happiness project,” she decided. She spent the next year test-driving the wisdom of the ages, current scientific studies, and lessons from popular culture about how to be happier. Each month, she pursued a different set of resolutions: go to sleep earlier, quit nagging, forget about results, or take time to be silly. Bit by bit, she began to appreciate and amplify the happiness that already existed in her life. Written with humour and insight, Gretchen’s story will inspire you to start your own happiness project. Now in a beautiful, expanded edition, Gretchen offers a wealth of new material including happiness paradoxes and practical tips on many daily matters: being a more light-hearted parent, sticking to a fitness routine, getting your sweetheart to do chores without nagging, coping when you forget someone’s name and more.

Discover the Secrets to Your Happiness! I won't tell you how to be happy - no one can. Your happiness is unique to you. Instead, in The Happiness Handbook, I'll gently guide you on your journey as you heal past wounds and (re)discover what makes you happy. But we won't stop there. I'll help you communicate what makes you happy to your loved ones, friends and co-workers. You'll realize that your happiness becomes a fabulous tool in boundary setting. I'll encourage you to receive happiness and let it show up in your body with a smile, a giggle and even your own happy dance.
