Self-help books are often facile and silly, but this is research-based and that appeals to the scientist in me. The general analysis is that approximately 40% of our mood/attitudes is subject to our direct control (as in not biology or given life circumstances. It is a fascinating look at what one might be able to do with that 40% and how. The only section I skimmed was the one on spirituality/religion, but the others are well worth a look. Some repetition and a few wonky questionnaires aside, it is at least guaranteed to make you think again about what you really need to be happy. ( ) Un método probado para conseguir una vida plena y feliz Con La ciencia de la felicidad, la investigadora y profesora de psicología Sonja Lyubomirsky presenta el primer programa para incrementar la felicidad de las personas basado en investigaciones científicas. Sus estudios demuestran que, pese a lo que solemos pensar, la felicidad personal no depende de factores como el dinero, el trabajo, la pareja o la juventud. En realidad, sólo un diez por ciento en términos de felicidad se apoya en circunstancias externas. La capacidad para la felicidad es innata en un cincuenta por ciento, pero el cuarenta por ciento restante se atribuye a lo que hacemos y a lo que pensamos; esto es, a nuestras actividades intencionadas y a nuestras estrategias mentales. Por eso, todos y cada uno de nosotros poseemos aún un amplio potencial para la dicha y el bienestar al que podemos acceder si ponemos en práctica los ejercicios y las estrategias propuestos en este libro sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Drawing on her own research with thousands of people, psychologist Lyubomirsky has pioneered a detailed yet easy-to-follow plan to increase happiness in our day-to-day lives--in the short and long term. This book that offers a guide to understanding what happiness is, and isn't, and what can be done to bring us all closer to the happy life we envision. Using more than a dozen happiness-increasing strategies, it offers a new way to understand our innate potential for joy and happiness as well as our ability to sustain it in our lives. Lyubomirsky's "happiness strategies" introduce readers to the concept of intentional activities that they can use to achieve a happier life, including exercises in optimism and how best to savor life's pleasures in the here and now. She also helps readers understand the obstacles to happiness as well as how to harness individual strengths to overcome them.--From publisher description.
