People often ask us how we manage to stay so happy and what our secret is. This book is the answer.
The recipe for happiness involves five major ingredients, and that's how this book is structured. The chapters are quite independent of each other and you could read them in any order.
Do you have trouble resting? Do you feel tired and worn out a lot? The chapters on Sleep and Meditation are for you. One of the best things you can do to get that elusive smile could well be simply closing your eyes. We can almost guarantee that following the steps in these chapters will dramatically improve the quality of your sleep, as well as your life.
Feeling unfit and unwell? Read the chapters on Food and Exercise. Being physically active and eating healthy, tasty meals can make a huge difference to your well-being.
Feeling stagnated? Head to the chapters on the Brain, Learning and Focused Mind Mapping. There's an incomparable joy in understanding and learning something new. Quite a few adults deny themselves this pleasure because they think they cannot learn new things or are afraid of making mistakes. That's where these chapters can come to your rescue.
Do you tend to forget things? Do you wish your memory could function better? The chapter on Memory unravels the mystery of how our memories work and explores two memory enhancement protocols: The Memory Palace and The Spaced Repetition System (SRS).
Keep getting into trouble because of habitually postponing stuff you have to do? The chapter on Procrastination provides insights into the working of your mind and includes an approach we call the S.T.A.R. technique to help you get over this and other infuriating habits.
Want some quick tips on becoming happier? Read Happiness Sutras. This is your go-to chapter whenever you feel low. If you are doing everything right, yet somehow not finding yourself in the best of spirits, perusing this chapter should help you out and restore your smile in a jiffy.
