DESCRIPTION

Seven Lessons for Living Well
We all want to be happier, but our brains often get in the way. When we’re too stuck in our heads we fail to see the good in our lives. World-leading happiness expert Bruce Hood presents seven simples, but life-changing lessons to re-connect with the things that really matter.

Over seven lessons, grounded in decades of studies in neuroscience and developmental psychology, The Science of Happiness tells a radical new story about the roots of well-being, with practical takeaways that show how we can all re-wire our thinking and transform our lives.

The problem with achieving happiness is the way the human mind is designed by evolution to process the world from an egocentric perspective and focus on the threats that might shorten our lives. Socially dependent on others, egocentric children grow into adults who may be less self-centred but end up becoming dissatisfied because we are prone to focus on the wrong information and comparisons when it comes to evaluating our lives.

We need to get out of our heads by connecting with others and the world around us through practices that have proven to make us happier.
