Publisher Description
The renowned wellness author shares “all of the essential ingredients to live our very best lives—physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually” (Victoria Moran, author of Creating a Charmed Life).
A pioneer of the mind-body-spirit approach to wellness, Susan Smith Jones shares ten simple practices that will keep you looking and feeling healthy, vibrant, and youthful. These include cultivating kindness and gratitude; staying adventurous and childlike; finding physical activities you love; eating natural foods; practicing prayer and affirmations; and many others.
In The Joy Factor, Susan explains that wellness isn’t just about what we do for ourselves. It’s also about the things we do in the world that make us feel most alive. As Wayne W. Dyer explains in his foreword, “The Joy Factor can help you forget about synthetic happiness, artificial health, and phony fulfillment and replace them with a genuine, life-changing formula that will help you not only feel better but also grow and flourish.”

An award-winning writer and advice columnist, Jones changed her life after a car accident fractured her back and doctors predicted she would never again be physically active. Today she lives in Los Angeles and takes advantage of many outdoor and indoor pleasures, including hiking, biking, riding horses, and participating yoga. Her recovery is largely based on the mental and psychological transformations she underwent. She centers her philosophies for health and wellness around 10 practices, from "Celebrate the Child in You" to "Seek Opportunities for Service and Stillness." Jones also includes self-discovery questions and action choices, grouped around specific themes, and a list of 100 affirmations divided into four categories: Health, Prosperity, Spirituality, and Self-Esteem/Lifestyle. Taken together it's a potent mix of self-help and spiritual teachings designed to enhance self-awareness and wellness from the inside out.
