Read by the author."Good Morning America contributor Tory Johnson truly believed that she would live happily ever if only she could lose weight.

Everyday Dharma : 8 essential practices for finding success and joy in everything you do / by Gupta, Suneel,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."We've been conditioned, from an early age, to believe that one day we'll reach a moment of 'arrival.' But no matter how much we achieve or acquire we still don't feel as satisfied or as fulfilled as we thought we would be. Exhausted, we become burned out and cynical, questioning the purpose of it all. An expert on happiness and work, Suneel Gupta argues that for too long society has been fixated on the Future of Work and ignored the Future of Worth. We've compartmentalized work and well-being and ignored the fact that both are essential for sustained success. We've assumed that outer success leads to inner well-being-despite history showing us that this has never been the case. In Everyday Dharma, Suneel helps us break this negative cycle. A captivating storyteller, he weaves personal stories, history, science, Eastern philosophy, and Western modalities in this engaging, enlightening, and prescriptive book. He begins by helping us identify our dharma, the essence of who we are. When you're in your Dharma, you feel confident, creative, and caring, with a sense of purpose, and that shines through your life and work."--

The art of Danish living : how the world's happiest people find joy at work / by Wiking, Meik,author.;
"Meik Wiking has been called the Indiana Jones of Happiness. He is globally revered as an expert in happiness and has spent the last decade researching the factors that impact on our happiness after setting up the world's very first Happiness Research Institute. It is well known around the world that the Scandinavian countries have a fantastic work-life balance, that working late is discouraged, parental leave is split equally, and long summer holidays are the norm. They even have a word meaning "happiness at work"-arbejdsgl{aelig}de. All of this is true, and more, while most people at work in western countries are struggling to strike a balance between home and work, which has led to a burn-out epidemic. This has fascinated Meik and his team at the institute in Copenhagen and they have teamed up with a global tech company to run a huge piece of research, collecting data from thousands of people across multiple countries, to look at how our work is affecting our happiness. Meik's next uplifting book will be based on the results of that research, revealing what actually makes us happy at work, how we can all learn from that to reduce stress, increase positivity, and work like the happiest people on earth."--

The Art of Danish Living How the World's Happiest People Find Joy at Work [electronic resource] : by Wiking, Meik.aut; cloudLibrary;
A beautiful, research-backed guide on how to work like the happiest people in the world from the CEO of the Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen and bestselling author of the New York Times bestseller The Little Book of Hygge. It is well-known that the Danish have a fantastic balance of work and home life, that working late is discouraged, parental leave is split equally, and long relaxing summer holidays are the norm. They even have a word that means “happiness at work”—arbejdsglæde. All of this is true while the rest of the western world are struggling with a burn-out epidemic, so where are we going wrong? Based on a new study from The Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen, which was conducted across thousands of workers and some of the biggest companies in the world, Meik's latest book reveals the main factors in our happiness at work in his most pertinant book yet. With chapters on Purpose, Trust, Relationships, Balance, Success, and much more, Meik suggests a more holistic approach to life and work that makes it possible for us all to reduce stress, increase productivity, and get more out of life.

High functioning : how to overcome your hidden depression and reclaim your joy / by Joseph, Judith,author.; Robbins, Mel,writer of foreword.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Many of us experience periods in our lives when something feels "off": when we struggle to find joy in happy moments, feel pessimistic about the future, and take little pleasure in things we used to enjoy. On the surface, we might be good at pretending we're doing fine-we are motivated and productive at work, pulling our weight at home, and conducting a normal social life-but behind that façade we are barely surviving, and certainly not thriving. We're all familiar with what depression can look like-but there's another, lesser known face to this illness. High functioning depression (HFD) doesn't conform to the image of depression that typically comes to mind: someone who is deeply sad and finds it hard to get out of bed in the morning. As a result, people with HFD often have no idea why they are suffering, or what to do about it. Drawing on original research, client cases, and her personal experience with HFD, Dr. Judith empowers readers with five simple tools to reclaim their lives from this poorly understood condition. By following her Her 5 V's--validation, venting, values, vision, and vitals--we can wake up happier, become more satisfied in our relationships, and regain joy in the present while looking forward to tomorrow.

Don't be trashy : a practical guide to living with less waste and more joy / by McKenna, Tara,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."We're all trapped in a convenience-based and wasteful cycle, but Tara McKenna offers an alternative: an approach to reducing waste for a more sustainable and ethical life that emphasizes progress over perfection. This isn't about fitting all of your waste into a Mason jar or going zero waste overnight. For real, long-lasting change that will enhance your life, McKenna guides you through a year of reducing waste, month by month, with lifestyle topics ranging from decluttering and developing a capsule wardrobe to streamlining your kitchen, pantry, and bathroom--slowly!--to significantly reduce the inflow of single-use plastics. This is an opportunity to become a more conscious consumer, as McKenna emphasizes the importance of a circular economy, and soon you'll be investing in home goods that'll last for decades. Ultimately, it's about transitioning to a minimalist mindset--a mindset that, coincidentally, will be good for your wallet--and the planet--in the long term"--
