You Are Enough

Firefly Books' Subject Bible series of twelve titles to date has sold over 150,000 copies in North America and three million worldwide. This latest title might just be the best of all. After all, humans devote their entire lives to striving for happiness by one means or another. And yet, happiness does not just happen. Pleasure might, fortune can, but long-lasting happiness and sustainable well-being -- what the author calls "flourishing" -- is an altogether more elusive condition, but not unreachable. It is a skill as much as a state. It takes effort, practice even. The Happiness Bible works with the reader to explain how happiness works and evolves, where it comes from, and how it can be nurtured and maintained. The book introduces the principles of positive psychology and how it works to achieve happiness or, it should be said, how to be less discontented. It examines what happiness studies have revealed and how positive psychology exercises help to banish the "thieves of happiness". Throughout the book are quotations that do more than inspire but also share wisdom worthy of reflection. 1. A History of Happiness -- Why It Matters 2. The Paradox of Positivity 3. Global Glee 4. Positive Psychology -- The Science of Flourishing 5. Thieves of Happiness and Barriers to Wellbeing 6. Mind-Mastery -- Breaking Down The Barriers to Wellbeing 7. Other People Matter -- Connection, Community and Communication 8. Happy Thinking -- Finding the Good and Surviving Well 9. Goals and Growth 10. Nourished by Nature 11.

A Happy Life is a Compassionate, Curious and Considered Life.
