10% Happier

Book • 2024
In '10% Happier,' Dan Harris shares his personal journey of discovering the benefits of meditation.

Initially a skeptic, Harris, a news anchor, found himself on a path of self-discovery after a nationally televised panic attack.

He delves into the world of spirituality and self-help, encountering various figures including brain scientists, CEOs, and spiritual leaders.

The book explores how meditation can reduce stress, improve focus, and enhance overall well-being without compromising one's ambition or edge.

Harris emphasizes the importance of mindfulness in making one more resilient and better equipped to handle life's challenges, though it does not eliminate problems entirely.
