Description
Ian K. Smith, M.D., has inspired millions to lose weight - both through his effective diet books and through his outreach work with the "50 Million Pound Challenge". By counselling dieters, he's learned that achieving hard-fought goals can make a person happy for a time, but that these accomplishments don't necessarily lead to long-term happiness. In "Happy", Dr. Ian has created a program that will motivate readers to tap into behaviors and mindsets that work and last. It's not euphoria Smith is after. With his expertise he can help anyone reach their personal high-mark of positive feelings. You don't have to overhaul your life for enduring happiness; simple steps you start today can spark big and permanent change. By focusing on ideas like these, "Happy" gives you all the tools and exercises you need for a fulfilled and happy life: how to be optimistic; why optimism and realism are not opposites; the importance of family and community; how to get outside of yourself; why involvement leads to contentment; tapping the power of simple pleasures; and, how to be, not just do. From one of America's most compelling and trusted voices, "Happy" delivers what its title promises.ISBN:9780312606350
