What to expect

In Happy Habits, happiness expert Tal Ben-Shahar provides accessible and easy-to-implement tools, and an easy-to-follow three step process, that can help you realize your goals, aspirations, and dreams.

He starts with simple intervention techniques to reset your mood in as little time as possible—what he calls Happiness Boosters in the form of MVIs—Minimum Viable Interventions, which include taking three deep breaths; writing down five things for which you are grateful; reading a quote slowly and deliberately; and vigorously climbing stairs for forty-five seconds. From there, discover how to improve wellbeing and build a stronger base within yourself for committing to change, increasing your willpower, and finding joy in the journey.

The final step in Ben-Shahar's guide will help you learn how to create the daily rituals that will help you turn goals into habits, and intentions into reality, using the 3 Rs of change: Reminders, Repetitions, and Rituals.

With concrete examples, practical, direct advice, and an easy-to-follow action plan,  Ben-Shahar shows you that while cultivating lasting change takes motivation, it does not have to be a frustrating experience that is doomed to failure.
