Hi everyone! Mondays are hard, right? So in an attempt to liven up the week I'm going to feature something happy on this blog each Monday! This could be anything - another happiness project, a great book I've read, something one of you loves (submit your happy things for future features
here), anything, but first up I'm bringing it all back to the lady who got me thinking about happiness in the first place.
Many of you will probably have heard of and even read
The Happiness Project or
Happier at Home by Gretchen Rubin, and I hope that you've also had the pleasure of listening to her podcast,
Happier which she hosts with her sister, Elizabeth Craft. I love this podcast so much. It's short - usually 30 minutes or so, and Gretchen and Elizabeth talk about all sorts of happiness related things. The thing I particularly like and have benefited from is their 'try this at home' idea, where each week they give listeners a simple thing to try which they think could boost your happiness. My very favourite of these was from episode 1 or 2 of the show I think and is the One Minute Rule. Basically if it can be done in a minute or less I just do it and you honestly wouldn't believe how much that's affected my stress levels, it's brilliant.
Have you listened to
Happier? Got any other great happiness related book or podcast recommendations for me? Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
