Synopsis

When the world is upside down and the future uncertain, is it possible to find happiness? Happiness expert Tal Ben-Shahar unequivocally says yes! In Happier, No Matter What, he gives listeners a toolbox for finding hope and purpose—the SPIRE method. This nuanced approach has five key realms:

● Spiritual: Are we living mindfully?

● Physical: Do we take care of our bodies?

● Intellectual: Are we challenged and curious?

● Relational: Do we nurture connections that nurture us?

● Emotional: Are our feelings both honored and balanced?

By assessing each area, we gain insight into our "baseline happiness"—and about how to build the resilience necessary to weather all of life's ups and downs, no matter what.

Goodreads review by Erleyne on January 09, 2023

Really easy to read introduction to positive psychology. I see some reviews on how Ben-Shahar does not really put new ideas or information forward in this book. Written during the pandemic, it provides a short overview of theories and exercises to improve your own hapiness. Although it may seem a bit......more
