The first practical guide to the physical benefits of positive emotions—from the national bestselling authors of How We Choose to Be Happy.
Happiness & Health unravels the mysteries of the mindbody connection as it presents clinical, scientific and anecdotal evidence that proves that the adoption of a set of simple behaviours—known collectively as the 'model of health'—can biochemically enhance health and well-being.
Validated by international studies, including those conducted at the Mayo Clinic, the 'model of health' as outlined in this book sets forth nine specific attitude- driven behaviours that anyone can integrate into their lives to achieve higher levels of both recovery from and prevention of illness:
Intention • Accountability • Identification • Centrality • Recasting • Options • Appreciation • Giving • Truth
