Practical Happiness Book - Society Of Happy People

“Want to know why we find happy people annoying? Because they don’t fully understand what happiness is. They think it’s about ALWAYS being happy, upbeat, cheerful, and chipper. So, they fake it. The faking is what annoys us. Pamela has given us a way to be happy and to mean it. Practically. Realistically. Authentically. And while we will not always be happy in every moment, at least we can be happy consistently and with meaning. Give this book to someone as a gift and you could be giving them the gift of real happiness. Who knows? Maybe that person is yourself.”

“Pamela Gail Johnson’s Practical Happiness is a practically perfect resource for understanding, recognizing, and building happiness in your life. She includes demonstrations of how happiness can be personal and enables the reader to find their own personal happiness inducers. She explains how to manage “happiness zappers” and even create a personal “zap map” to navigate them. She explores how happiness changes as we change, and helps us know how to help our happiness grow with us. And she helps you explore how you experience thirty-one different types of happiness, and expand your experience of each of them. With her personal, easy-to-digest, highly readable tone, Johnson walks you through all the ways in which happiness is an inside job, and how you can get more happiness inside of yourself. This page-turner is packed with wisdom you can put to use right now.”

“Pursuing happiness is the most basic of human objectives but yet one that can remain elusive. In a time where languishing seems more the norm than flourishing, what could be more timely than a pragmatic perspective on how to cultivate happiness! Pamela has created a practical guide to build a skill that is crucial to enhance our individual life experience and our collective energy of gratitude and optimism.”

I did TV news stories on her two decades ago and since then, her mission to spread happiness and educate people on how to ‘dial up the smile’ has gone around the planet. This book is packed with actionable items that anyone can easily implement. The stress of the pandemic has made this book more necessary now than ever.”
