About this title

Synopsis

The first practical guide to the physical benefits of positive emotions—from the national bestselling authors of How We Choose to Be Happy.

Happiness & Health unravels the mysteries of the mindbody connection as it presents clinical, scientific, and anecdotal evidence that proves that the adoption of a set of simple behaviors—known collectively as the "model of health"—can biochemically enhance health and well-being.

Validated by international studies, including those conducted at the Mayo Clinic, the “model of health” as outlined in this book sets forth nine specific attitude- driven behaviors that anyone can integrate into their lives to achieve higher levels of both recovery from and prevention of illness:

Intention • Accountability • Identification • Centrality • Recasting • Options • Appreciation • Giving • Truth
