“Happiness is a spiritual path. The more you learn about true happiness, the more you discover the truth of who you are, what is important, and what your life is for.”
Be Happy! is the follow-up to Robert Holden’s best-selling Happiness NOW! In this book, Robert gives you a front-row seat on his 8-week happiness program—famously tested by independent scientists for the BBC-TV documentary called How to Be Happy. Step-by-step he introduces you to a set of proven techniques, principles, meditations, and insights that will help you be happy now! Key lessons include:
Follow Your Joy — stop chasing happiness and start enjoying your life as it happens.
The Happiness Contract — undo mental and emotional blocks to happiness and success.
The Receiving Meditation — increase your natural capacity for happiness and abundance.
The Forgiveness Practice — give up all hopes for a better past and be happy now.
The Gift of Happiness — use the power of happiness to bless your life and benefit others.
“This happiness training not only changes the way you feel; it actually changes the way your brain functions.”
— Professor Davidson, Wisconsin-Madison University

a ‘Must Have’ for everyone! I read this book cover to cover on a long transatlantic flight and could not put it down. After every chapter I felt my life had shifted and transformed and I could not believe there was still more to come with the rest of the book! With every chapter I learned new insights which led me to feel transformed and as if my life would now be lived from a whole new perspective.With warmth, humour and wisdom, Robert takes us through is 8-week happiness program (which I have done by the way and it is amazing!) and this book has truly changed my life, as has the 8-week course, which I did in person.This is an essential book for everyone who is interested in being happy (and I have never met anyone who isn’t ?!)
A great gift to everyone This book is written with such great generosity. Robert shares his Happiness 8-week course with the world and brings it alive with great passion and astonishing depth yet keeping it joyfully alive with great warmth and humour.This read searches into every single area of our lives – and then goes that little bit further. Its holistic, spiritual, joyful, open and as said, so very, very generous. A totally fascinating enquiry into our own individual thinking around the whole concept of happiness and where it is and isn’t in our lives – and, as the great Louise Hay says in her forward to the book, ‘do yourself a favour and do all the exercises’.I have had the great privilege of actually being on this course and it has completely shifted my life for the better and given me timeless reminders and a deeper sense of staying open to all possibilites.This book will serve as a constant reminder of TRUE happiness.Give yourself a gift and enjoy this book.
