An important addition to your library
"A book of joy. How to be happy in a changing world" by His Holiness the Dalai Lama XIV, Desmond Tutu, Douglas Abrams
Joy and light on every page: it's as if you're eavesdropping on two wise people's conversations, and you're always asking for a pause to record the next thought. To be more precise, you are not listening, you are a guest at this evening in the light of Dharamsala's lights. Douglas Abrams recorded the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Tutu's dialogues for each person: whether you are depressed or experiencing the best moments of life. In the first case, you will see a ray of light, in the second - just enjoy the friendly energy, which literally seeps through the printed words. And it doesn't matter what faith you believe you have in yourself - there are two worlds under the cover that have a lot in common. But the most important thing that unites them is kindness, happiness, and joy.
Jamie Thurston, "Kindness. Small book of great discoveries"
This miniature book will be a great gift to anyone, perhaps even to yourself. There are 52 rules in it, by which you (one hundred percent!) will make the world around you and your life kinder and happier. This book was born from the 52 Lives project on Facebook. Its creator (and author of the book) Jamie Thurston spoke about people from all over the world with different requests and problems so that every visitor to the community could help them. The book has become a manifesto of this good initiative. Use it as a checklist: one rule for one day or one rule for one week. Celebrate the results - and then you'll see how it all went into the right and very necessary habit. By the way, a separate compliment should be made to the publisher: the artists who design each page tried to glory.
Haim Shapira, "Happiness and other insignificant things of absolute" importance
This book is for relaxation: a quiet evening alone or reading out loud especially beloved quotes in the family circle. The question "What is happiness" is answered by famous heroes: from Woody Allen and Chekhov to Winnie the Pooh and the Little Prince. A collection of these important rules was compiled by Chaim Shapira - twice a doctor of science, mathematician, philosopher, psychologist, and writer. He explores the subject of happiness with humor and a very correct approach: less clever phrases, more life. It turned out to be an easy, sometimes very funny book about serious things.
Neil Pasricha, "The Happiness Formula. Nothing + something = everything"
Neil Pasricha is a graduate of Harvard Business School. He had lunch with monarchs from the Middle East, performed on the same stage with Harvard professors, led hundreds of leadership lectures, collaborated with business corporations, and was generally satisfied with his career and admired the careers of those with whom he communicated and followed. But at some point, he realized that all of them (including him) were unhappy. His book in the bright cover is a real textbook with practical tips. It does not have clever compound phrases, but a lot of humor and warmth - thanks to this combination, the book very unobtrusively opens your eyes to your own life. And it tells you how to turn everything in the right direction.
Frederick Lenoir, "Happiness"
This book can become your desktop - it is very nice and decorated correctly, and also it wants to read with a pencil in hand, constantly emphasizing, writing out and remembering. The author meticulously goes deep into the topic of research of the subject of happiness, considering this phenomenon from different angles. On the pages he conducts dialogues with Buddha, Jesus, Plato, Kant - yes, he puts them in one row, trying to get answers to their (and all humanity's) questions out of their wisdom. If that's not enough for you, turn to the second book, called Joy.
Loretta Graziano Browning, "Manage the hormones of happiness. How to get rid of negative emotions in 6 weeks"
The author has already written the bestseller "Hormones of Happiness", but it is not an obligation to read it before this book - you can start with the second part. There are a lot of facts, examples from biology and other sciences on the pages, but you will surely cope with them quite quickly. Opening the book, you can instantly feel like a student of the Institute of Happiness, where you learn how to achieve balance and harmony in their lives and find within themselves what prevents it. If you are ready to absorb everything that the author writes, in the final can safely say aloud: "The mission is achievable. But it is better not to put yourself a deadline of six weeks, and slowly and confidently go to your goal for the hand with Loretta.
