2009 Audie Award Finalist for Personal Development

What would it take to make you happy? A fulfilling career, a big bank account, or the perfect mate? What if it didn't take anything to make you happy? What if you could experience happiness from the inside out: no matter what's going on in your life?

Studies show that each of us has a happiness set-point: a fixed range of happiness we tend to return to throughout our life that's approximately 50-percent genetic and 50-percent learned. In the same way you'd crank up the thermostat to get comfortable on a chilly day, you can actually reprogram your happiness set-point to a higher level of peace and well-being. This life-changing program shows you how!

In Happy for No Reason, transformational expert and best-selling author Marci Shimoff reveals a remarkable program, incorporating the latest findings in positive psychology, moving real-life stories and powerful tools and techniques that will raise your happiness set-point and enable you to experience more unconditional happiness in your life: starting today.

If this is the kind of thing you are into (self improvement) then this is a good book for you. I just finished it and am excited about what I learned from it. I am also even more inspired to start acting on some things i have been putting off.

So Rich!

This book got me out of my own head and away from all the things that I had learned that were incorrect when it comes to my happiness and the happiness I help others feel. I can’t wait to read again. The exercises in the pdf are awesome!

Grateful For Every Reason

So blessed by the words shared here. I walked on the beach listening to this book: again. I’ve read it before and am so glad I also purchased the audible version. Heart softened. Hope renewed. Thank you. ❤️

Great Book

Been going through a really tough time right now. My unhappiness has bled its way into most of the corners of my life: friends, work, family and the love of my life. Everything has been crashing down and this book has really helped to show me what I've been doing. No matter what your challenges are, no matter what you're facing, this book can help you to take control of your emotions! It's definitely worth the read (or listen).

Awesome book

A wonderful book

I like this book very much for the fact that it explain very clearly the facts about happiness. I agree with many things she says in this book and I learned many new things. I am actually planning to give the paper version of this book for several of my friends as gifts because this book could be a eye opener for those who chase illusions thinking those will make them happy. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to live a meaningful and life being happy because in deep down, all what we seek is happiness and we individuals take different routes to achieve that.
