Customer Reviews

Nice Gift for Yourself and/or Someone You Love ...

Just 1 of the "Ways to Feel Happier" is worth the price of book! I ask these questions: of myself to get balanced; of others to be a good listener and inspire interesting conversation; and of negative people to help them find a broader perspective. Four "ways to feel happier" questions, paraphrased: 1) What are you happy about in your life? 2) What's going well? 3) What are you excited about? 4) What are you looking forward to? Get the book to see the other 49 great suggestions!

Inspiring, and with Gorgeous illustrations!!!

In these hectic days, this book is a nice and thoughtful respite. And the illustrations! One word...Wow!!!

Succinct, Inspiring with Beautiful Illustrations

I found "Better than Chocolate" an exceptionally inspiring book. It's so easy to read and 'digest'. The illustrations are really beautiful too. The author, Siimon Reynolds, has obviously done a lot of research (and lists a pretty extensive recommended reading) to succinctly write the 50 or so tips. By following even just a couple of the tips, to start with anyway, I genuinely found myself feeling happier. I particularly liked the "4 Magic Personality Traits" and "Focus on Happiness" tips best. If only I had had this book earlier! "Better than Chocolate" is filled with great ideas to help you feel happier. This is a book you read and re-read. I highly recommend it and it makes a fabulous gift too.
