Overcome Your Trauma With Happiness w/ Karen Guggenheim

In 'Solve for Happy,' Mo Gawdat applies his engineering mindset to the problem of happiness. He argues that happiness is a thought process and can be achieved by aligning our perceptions with our expectations. The book introduces the 6-7-5 Model, which involves dispelling six grand illusions, removing seven blind spots, and embracing five ultimate truths. Gawdat shares practical strategies such as cultivating awareness, accepting change, and practicing unconditional love. His approach is grounded in mindfulness and positive psychology, offering readers a roadmap to individual happiness despite life's challenges.

Cultivating Happiness is a guide that draws from Karen Guggenheim's personal experiences and research in psychology and neuroscience. After the sudden death of her husband in 2013, Karen used her grief as a motivator to embark on a transformative journey of post-traumatic growth, leading her to become the co-founder of the World Happiness Summit. The book shows that happiness can be taught and learned, and through small daily changes, one can bring more compassion and positivity into their life to feel better about themselves and others.
