I found this book to be quite insightful and the techniques mentioned in it, when practiced consciously, will allow us to be happy and less stressed, regardless of what life may throw. The concept of happiness is outlined in a simple and easy to understand manner. Throughout the book the author quotes examples and shares his experiences and that made it more relatable for me. It made me think of some situations I was in and how differently I could have reacted/handled. It encouraged me to do some retrospection and introspection. I know this book will serve as a reference for me and I will be going back to it often. Definitely one to add to your shelf!
