We all desire happiness, yet our minds often hinder us. When we become trapped in our thoughts, we fixate on our flaws, compare ourselves to others, and overlook the positives in our lives. A world-leading psychologist and happiness expert reveals that connection, not self-care, is the true key to happiness. Through seven transformative lessons, he guides us to break free from negative thought patterns and reconnect with what truly matters: Alter Your Ego, Avoid Isolation, Reject Negative Comparisons, Become More Optimistic, Control Your Attention, Connect With Others, and Get Out of Your Own Head. Drawing on decades of research in neuroscience and developmental psychology, this work presents a groundbreaking perspective on the roots of well-being and the barriers we face. With practical insights throughout, the author shows how we can leverage scientific findings to rewire our thinking and enhance our lives. Esteemed figures praise the book for its clear, valuable lessons and scientific backing, calling it a roadmap to better well-being and a comprehensive guide to understanding what genuinely fosters happiness.
A fascinating and engaging examination of why we believe in the supernatural.
