Más feliz, a pesar de todo

When something good happens to us, we are very happy, and when something bad happens to us, we are sad. But what impact does this fact, however good or bad, have on our happiness a month later? The studies say it clearly: absolutely none. This is because happiness does not depend on the current situation (we all have ups and downs), but rather it is the constantly changing reference line between the good times and the bad times. Happier, Despite It All is both a diagnostic tool, helping readers identify the building blocks of happiness in their own lives, and a recipe for happier living. As Ben-Shahar reveals in this book, our happiness is the result of a combination of five essential components: spiritual, physical, intellectual, relational and emotional well-being. In this way, it approaches the question of modern happiness from all angles, equipping us with strategies to manage our emotions, take care of our bodies, nurture our relationships, maintain intellectual curiosity and live mindfully, even when everything seems to be going wrong.
