Happier, No Matter What: Cultivating Hope, Resilience, and Purpose in Hard Times

Product Description
\nEven when everything is going wrong, the science of happiness can help you!\\nPioneering positive psychologist and
\nNew York Times–bestselling author Tal Ben-Shahar shows us how in
\nHappier, No Matter What.\\nBen-Shahar busts the all-too-common ideas that
\nsuccess brings happiness and that we can
\nseek happiness itself. When hard times thwart our success and steal our joy, these ideas actually invite despair by leaving us with nothing to do.\\nBut we
\ncan do something: We can climb the SPIRE—Ben-Shahar’s five-step staircase to hope and purpose.\\nSpiritual: I am experiencing meaning.
\nPhysical: My body’s needs are met.
\nIntellectual: I am learning.
\nRelational: My friends support me.
\nEmotional: I am allowed to feel.
\n By truly living these five elements of well-being, we build the resilience to carry us through anything—from a personal loss to a global pandemic. Ben-Shahar’s all-new SPIRE method shows us the way to becoming “whole again”—and when we’re whole, we invite happiness in.
