Join the contentment revolution! The writer of the New York Times best seller The Little Publication of Hygge offers more enthusiasm and recommendations for achieving increased happiness by training Lykke (LOO-ka) - going after and finding the good that is out there in the world around us every day. While the Danes are the happiest people on earth, happiness isn't solely Danish; cultures about the world have their own unique approaches to leading a contented, fulfilled life. For his work at the Joy Research Institute in Copenhagen, Meik Wiking trips the globe from Dubai to Finland, Rio de Janeiro to Bhutan, South Korea to the United States, to discover the secrets of the extremely happiest people. In The Little Publication of Lykke, Meik identifies the six factors that make clear nearly all differences in contentment around the world - togetherness, money, health, independence, trust, and kindness - and explores what actions we may take to become happier. As he uncovers, we can deepen our blissfulness and contentment with little adjustments in our tendencies, whether it's eating like the French (sitting down around a stand and savoring our time) or dance the tango like Argentinians in Buenos Aires. With his brand warmth and wit, Meik explores the contentment difference for parents, how much money you really need to buy happiness, how we can be healthier without having to go directly to the gym, how we can learn to build trust and collaboration, how we can help ourselves by supporting others, and just why our expectations often outweigh our truth. Weaving mutually original research and personal anecdotes, The Little Publication of Lykke is a worldwide highway map for happiness that offers a fresh approach to obtaining everyday contentment that not only enhances our own lives but helps us build better communities and an improved world.
