Are some of us simply fated to be miserable? Luckily, no. M. J. studied everything known about happiness from neuroscience, psychology, and the wisdom traditions of the world, and with what she learned, she did a happiness makeover on herself. And it worked! She discovered that we can learn how to be happy, right now, even in the chaos of our most trying days. In The Happiness Makeover, she shares the simple strategies that can help anyone₇miserable, moody or just neutral₇finally find the joy in life. The Happiness Makeover is a two-step process, first of overcoming common happiness blockers like worry, envy, fear, and negativity, and second, of pursuing happiness boosters, like flow, meaningful work, challenge, gratitude, and many more. Her plan helps us actually change the pathways in our minds worn deep from our habitual negative thinking and program ourselves to think happily instead.
