Let's read this interesting book on happiness that blends ideas from psychology, philosophy and spirituality!
We'll start off the meeting with each person having a chance to share a favorite idea or topic from the book, and then have open discussion.
If you don't have time to read the whole book, don't worry. Just read as much as you can, and join us for a lively discussion.
Here's the Amazon review:
The author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Anxious Generation shows how a deeper understanding of the world's philosophical wisdom can enrich and transform our lives
The Happiness Hypothesis is a book about ten Great Ideas. Each chapter is an attempt to savor one idea that has been discovered by several of the world's civilizations—to question it in light of what we now know from scientific research, and to extract from it the lessons that still apply to our modern lives and illuminate the causes of human flourishing. Award-winning psychologist Jonathan Haidt shows how a deeper understanding of the world's philosophical wisdom and its enduring maxims—like "do unto others as you would have others do unto you," or "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger"—can enrich and transform our lives.
