We all want to be happier, but our brains often get in the \nway. When we’re too stuck in our heads we obsess over our inadequacies, \ncompare ourselves with others and fail to see the good in our lives. \nIn The Science of Happiness, world-leading psychologist and \nhappiness expert Bruce Hood demonstrates that the key to \nhappiness is not self-care but connection. He presents seven simple \nbut life-changing lessons to break negative thought patterns and \nre-connect with the things that really matter. \nAlter Your Ego \nAvoid Isolation \nReject Negative Comparisons \nBecome More Optimistic \nControl Your Attention \nConnect With Others \nGet Out of Your Own Head \nGrounded in decades of studies in neuroscience and \ndevelopmental psychology, this book tells a radical new story \nabout the roots of wellbeing and the obstacles that lie in our \npath. With clear, practical takeaways throughout, Professor Hood \ndemonstrates how we can all harness the findings of this science to re-wire \nour thinking and transform our lives.
