Acerca de esta escucha
How can you achieve long-lasting happiness? Or transform your relationship with fear, death, or grief? What is happiness anyway? All these questions (and more) are asked and answered in How to Die Happy.
Exploring themes around life "at Earth School"—depression, consumption, distraction, emotions, ego, and the pursuit of success, How to Die Happy examines why many of us often feel off-center. It's a guide to happiness that embraces the paradoxical impermanence of this sought-after prize.
Former high-functioning alcoholic adman Martin O'Toole once lived a wild life of excess, oblivious of how childhood trauma had profoundly impaired his emotional maturation. A suicide attempt was the launchpad for his learning about mental health's complexities—lessons, he muses, he "ought to have been taught as a child".
He left London for the tropical island of Bali on a mission to heal his neuroses. This extensive self-help process uncovered what he calls the "anatomy of happy"—a methodology detailed in this book. Part curated wisdom, part handbook, part memoir, How to Die Happy distils the secrets to living and dying well. It cherry-picks Eastern philosophies like Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism, connecting such mindfulness to psychological practices. Combining tales of self-suffering, forgiveness, and the miraculous healing power of psychedelic plant medicines, it offers a host of practical utilities to enjoy a vibrant and contented life.
These are not lessons from an enlightened guru or a PhD but by a self-professed, fallible "man on the mend". He deftly tackles serious subject matter in fun, often self-effacing, and lighthearted ways.
Today, we face material distractions at every turn. This book offers tools to help you find inner peace and happiness in a world that needs it more than ever. This is one self-care book you must hear before you die.

Dr. Brian Weiss is a highly respected psychiatrist from the mainstream of the medical establishment. Catherine is one of his most difficult cases, a 27-year-old woman racked by phobias and anxieties. In the course of Catherine's treatment, Dr. Weiss makes a startling discovery. Under hypnosis, she recollects, in vivid detail, events from past lives ranging from the prehistoric times and ancient Egypt to the 20th century and the fires of World War II.

Historia
Robert Sapolsky’s Behave, his now classic account of why humans do good and why they do bad, pointed toward an unsettling conclusion: We may not grasp the precise marriage of nature and nurture that creates the physics and chemistry at the base of human behavior, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Now, in Determined, Sapolsky takes his argument all the way, mounting a brilliant (and in his inimitable way, delightful) full-frontal assault on the pleasant fantasy that there is some separate self telling our biology what to do.

Historia
The trauma that our world experienced in recent years—as result of both the pandemic and societal tensions that threaten to overwhelm us—has been unprecedented and is not going away anytime soon. It is clear that existing political and economic systems are not enough to bring the change that the world needs. In this book, Rainn Wilson explores the possibility and hope for a spiritual revolution, a “Soul Boom” in order to address today’s greatest issues—mental health, racism and sexism, climate change, and economic injustice.

Historia
Every day, we find ourselves in gatherings, Priya Parker says in The Art of Gathering. If we can understand what makes these gatherings effective and memorable, then we can reframe and redirect them to benefit everyone, host and guest alike. Parker defines a gathering as three or more people who come together for a specific purpose. When we understand why we gather, she says - to acknowledge, to learn, to challenge, to change - we learn how to organize gatherings that are relevant and memorable.

Shetty grew up in a family where you could become one of three things—a doctor, a lawyer, or a failure. His family was convinced he had chosen option three: Instead of attending his college graduation ceremony, he headed to India to become a monk, to meditate every day for four to eight hours, and devote his life to helping others. After three years, one of his teachers told him that he would have more impact on the world if he left the monk’s path to share his experience and wisdom with others.

Even if you are unaware of their presence, angels are always available to help you. If you have experienced a lucky break or happy coincidence, it was most likely orchestrated by your guardian angel. And, as Robbie Holz reveals, if we give angels permission to enter our lives, if we ask for their help in navigating life’s many challenges, their assistance is much more profound and effective. In this step-by-step guide to calling on angels and benevolent spirit guides, Holz explores how to initiate and nurture your angelic relationships and engage their powerful assistance.

Simplifying the complex
It’s one beautifully curated assemblage of timeless wisdom, speckled across a spectrum of infinite wonder. I’ve never seen a book so eloquently bring together such diverse positions of philosophical wisdom, from all arenas into one. On top of that, it’s all magnificently intertwined in the most seamlessly progressive fashion imaginable. The anatomy of happy makes so much sense it’s a wonder that it could be this simple. Is it really that simple? After reading this book I’m convinced that it truly is! Thank you Martin

Beautiful listen, full of insight and even guided meditations
I loved listening to this book on my walks in nature. It contains a lot of insights from the author’s personal journey through his life about practices and perspectives that can remind you to live in joy and in presence.
I also absolutely loved the guided meditations in between chapters to be reminded of the present moment and my breath.
