From the Publisher

Despite the encyclopedic nature of this collection of research findings, Stephanie Spicer’s performance conveys enough enthusiasm to make it sound like an interesting and helpful documentary. She’s a pleasing narrator whose interpretations are creative and unambiguous. Though the title suggests a discussion of obstacles to happiness, the audiobook is actually focused on the activities, habits, and contexts that promote good feelings and a satisfied mind. The studies show that happiness levels are improved by such things as being outdoors, making time for intimacy, eating healthy, and participating in synchronized activity with others like Zumba, yoga, or tai chi. With the narrator’s positive vibe, this audio delivers painless ways to boost your mood and enjoyment of life. T.W. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
