Simply Happiness: A Short and Practical Guide to Maintaining a Happy and Contented Life

What is happiness?

True happiness isn't permanent positivity; it's fluid with many subtle levels and allows full emotional expression. It's a skill to be practised - not attained.

Life is full of ups and downs, but wouldn't it be great if we could maintain a constant level of happiness and contentment - no matter what is happening around us?

Simply Happiness is a practical guide that shows you how to improve your happiness in 12 easy steps. It's a concise and easy read which summarises and distils knowledge from ancient philosophies and wisdom, as well as modern evidence-based happiness research.

The author's journey into happiness started as a personal project exploring the what, why and how of happiness, which then blossomed into a guide that everyone can benefit from. The book is full of practical examples of how this 12-step approach can be easily implemented in your life for lasting impact.

Happiness is contagious - by improving your own happiness you cannot help but share it with those around you. As the ancient prayer says - May All Be Happy.
