While the Danes are the happiest people on the planet, happiness is not exclusively Danish. Cultures around the world have their own unique approaches to living a fulfilling life. From Dubai to Finland, Rio de Janeiro to Bhutan, and South Korea to the United States, Meik Wiking, author of The Little Book of Luca, travels the world for his work at the Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen to discover the secrets of the happiest people.
In The Little Book of Lykke, Meik identifies six factors that explain the majority of differences in happiness around the world—togetherness, money, health, freedom, trust, and kindness—and explores what we can do to become happier. As he reveals, we can deepen our happiness and contentment by making small changes in our behavior, whether it's eating like the French (sitting around a table and passing the time) or dancing the tango in Buenos Aires like the Argentines.
With his sincerity and humor, Mick explores the parenting happiness gap, how much money you need to buy happiness, how we can be healthier without going to the gym, how we can learn trust and cooperation, how we can help others help ourselves, and why our expectations often exceed our reality. Blending original research and personal anecdotes, The Little Book of Lykke is a global roadmap to happiness that offers a new approach to achieving everyday happiness that not only improves our own lives but also helps our communities. Let's build a better world.
