Feliz Porque si: Siete Pasos Para Alcanzar la Felicidad Desde el Interior

Reseña del libro

Marci Shimoff, escritora de exito mundial y coautora de la serie Sopa de pollo para el alma, el mas importante fenomeno de toda la literatura de desarrollo personal, vuelve con su esperado nuevo titulo: Feliz porque si­. En esta obra, la reconocida lider espiritual ofrece el primer programa holi­stico para experimentar la autentica felicidad, un estado neurofisiologico de paz y bienestar que surge del interior y no depende de circunstancias externas. Cuando uno es Feliz porque si­, no necesita manipular el mundo que le rodea, porque experimenta dicha y serenidad en cualquier situacion, incluso cuando le invade la ira o la tristeza. Sin embargo, no basta con tomar la decision para empezar a ser Feliz porque si­: la felicidad tambien hay que practicarla. A traves de un programa paso a paso para incrementar los niveles de felicidad, cualquier persona sabra, para cuando llegue al final del libro, como experimentar el mas profundo bienestar durante el resto de su vida. / According to the World Health Organization, the year 2020 will see depression become second only to heart disease in terms of the global burden of illness, a sad state of affairs that motivational speaker Shimoff (co-author, Chicken Soup for the Womans Soul) believes can be changed by learning to cultivate ""a happiness thats beyond reasons and thats here to stay."" Inner happiness, she says, is within reach for anyone who can turn down the volume on their hectic lives and learn the 21 Happiness Habits that Shimoff has cultivated from 100 interviews with ""deeply happy"" people (including actress Goldie Hawn and author Elizabeth Gilbert). Emphasizing a holistic approach, Shimoff takes into account mind, heart, body and soul in seven chapters that cover three Happiness Habits each, as well as corresponding anecdotes that ""define what it means to be Happy for No Reason."" The personal stories of happy interviewees prove enlightening, and the princples they support are sound and commonsensical (""Focus on the solution,"" ""Make peace with yourself,"" ""Question your thoughts,"" ""Practice forgiveness""), if not exactly groundbreaking. Exercises and quizzes give readers practical steps toward their goal, such as breathing exercises (Spring Forest Qigong) and writing assignments (""Write a letter to your Higher Power"").
