Personal Review: What Happy Women Know: How New Findings in Positive Psychology Can Change Womens Lives for the Better by Cathy Greenberg Ph.D. Focusing on the positive has the power to change your life for the happier. It sounds simple enough but for many, it takes desire, practice and a certain amount of discipline. What Happy Women Know by Dan Baker and Cathy Greenberg, shares the why's and how's for focusing on a happier life. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book! After all, who wouldn't want more happiness? What Happy Women Know by Dan Baker and co-author Cathy Greenberg is an interesting, insightful and hopeful book to read. It's a good mix of information, inspiration and practical how-to advice. Honestly, I was a little skeptical to read a book about women's happiness written by a man. The author, Dan Baker, Ph.D., earned my respect with his insightful research and twenty years of day-to-day work with the women who visited the famous health/spa facility, Canyon Ranch in Tucson, Arizona. Dr. Baker is the founder of the Life Enhancement Program at Canyon Ranch. This well thought out paperback book is filled with real life examples for using positive psychology to change your life for the better.
    3. What if you could learn from other women who've come before and found ways to be happier and more self-satisfied? Wouldn't you want to tap into their wisdom? If the answer is "yes," then you'll want to read this book. Here's an example of a couple of the lessons from What Happy Women Know: Happy women understand the three steps to self-forgiveness: *Acknowledge the lesson you learned. *Recognize that you're now in a different place. *Know that you may make a new mistake tomorrow. Here's another one: Men and women experience happiness differently. For men happiness is the pursuit of power and for women, happiness is the pursuit of relationships. Powerful and thought-provoking pearls of wisdom are prevalent throughout the book. By reading them you can't help but feel the power of taking positive action. As I read What Happy Women Know, I knew what I was reading could make a "happy" difference in my life. Here's a look at some the chapter titles: ~ Perfectionism: You Can't Get There From Here ~ The Revenge Rut ~ I'm Nothing Without Him ~ Transcending Loss ~ Happiness and Health ~Ten Qualities of Happy Women These few chapter titles should give you a clue to the overall approach that Dr Baker takes in this book - you control your level of happiness and happiness begins inside. This is a book you'll want to read, think about and take notes. Self-help is simply that - helping yourself live a fuller and happier life. Reading, absorbing and applying the practical wisdom found in this book could change your life for the happier. Dr. Baker helps the reader discover and embrace this often-elusive emotion called "happiness." Happiness is very personal and because of this, I'm sure this book will affect each of us in a uniquely personal way. I definitely recommend What Happy Women Know.
