We all want to be happier, but our brains often get in the
way. When we’re too stuck in our heads we obsess over our inadequacies,
compare ourselves with others and fail to see the good in our lives.
In The Science of Happiness, world-leading psychologist and
happiness expert Bruce Hood demonstrates that the key to
happiness is not self-care but connection. He presents seven simple
but life-changing lessons to break negative thought patterns and
re-connect with the things that really matter.
Alter Your Ego
Avoid Isolation
Reject Negative Comparisons
Become More Optimistic
Control Your Attention
Connect With Others
Get Out of Your Own Head
Grounded in decades of studies in neuroscience and
developmental psychology, this book tells a radical new story
about the roots of wellbeing and the obstacles that lie in our
path. With clear, practical takeaways throughout, Professor Hood
demonstrates how we can all harness the findings of this science to re-wire
our thinking and transform our lives.
