Live Happy audiobook

There are some good suggestions in this book and I found myself underlining a lot of passages. However, many of the examples of people turning their lives around and finding joy were people who are very fortunate financially to begin with, which I did not find inspirational from the point of view as an average person.

A fantastic list and reminder of what happiness means both individually and collectively. Not only how to obtain it, but also to keep it. I think the most important lesson in this book is that happiness is not a new car, a better job, dropping a few pounds or even finding your dream partner. Happiness starts with you. Happiness and positivity attract new cars, better jobs, healthy lifestyles and good marriages. They do not supply the happiness, they grow from it. This is an excellent read everyone should pick up. We all need the reminder, and not just once, but throughout our lives. Like a checkup.

Great overview of important principles Definitely worth the read even if you’re well versed on the core tenets of positive psychology. It’s a great refresher for seasoned readers while serving as a solid primer for newbies. It’s written with three simple structures:1 - stories offering good intro case studies highlighting the idea being discussed 2 - the science behind the idea being explored 3 - tweetable insights and calls to action Very readable and easily recommended.

I loved that it had different perspectives from different people in different walks of life as I truly don't believe one way of anything is the right way for everyone so that was refreshing. A lot of stuff I have heard in other books which makes it that much better to reaffirm the knowledge floating around out there on how to live a happier life. Definitely a book I will revisit at some point especially if I need the gentle reminder to choose Joy.Good Read!

Really nothing new here that I haven't read before. I do like the tips at the end of each practice for putting it into practice. Plus, reading these kinds of books (on happiness) from time-to-time help in clearing my brain from all the negative stuff in the news these days.Recommended.

Quick, wonderful read that gave me actionable items and great resources to further my understanding.

An uplifting compilation of stories of how people found happiness. Mindfulness and giving back stood out to me.

Great little book. I was walking through the library and saw this book sitting on display, I just had to read it. I am a big fan of positive psychology and an entire study of happiness itself just intrigued me. The book does a great job of sharing some of the research behind the study of happiness and then sharing snippets of people using the practice in their life and how it influenced them. Each chapter ends with a suggestion of what you can do to practice the happiness act in your life. I think its really a book that should be read over a period of time so that you can take in what you have read and hopefully implemented some of the happiness acts in your life as well.

Such a breezy read, but uses the science of happiness along with people's personal stories that made me understand that one person's choices can have an immense effect on their own and others' happiness. I saw the author speak. She is involved in the leadership of Nerium International, my part time job.

Loved this book. Simple easy things can add such happiness...like calling an old friend, giving someone an unexpected compliment, and reaching out of your comfort zone. A quick read that I'll keep on my nightstand for reference and daily positivity!

I enjoyed this book.

I want to own this book!!!! It's amazing. If everyone read this and only did one of the suggestions everyday we'd have such a better world.

After reading this book, I want to check out the magazine. Great ideas and inspiration.

Good to remember these things. Life is short. Be happy.Read to remind yourself to be happy and find joy in each day. Easy steps to change the ways you look at some things.
