As you know, I really think being happy doesn't have to be difficult or involve a lot of money!
The new field of "positive psychology"--the scientific study of optimal behavior, of people at their best -- is leading the way in our understanding of this.
Two days ago, I reprinted an article ("Relationships--Getting It Right") from the email newsletter "Coaching Toward Happiness". It's the premier newsletter in positive psychology and coaching with 131,000 readers around the world, and one I'd strongly recommend you check out at www.coachingtowardhappiness.com.
