Publisher Description

What is the one thing everyone wants? Happiness. But where do we find it? French Buddhist monk Matthieu Ricard has been working with scientists and Buddhist scholars to explore the effects of meditation on the brain and its correlation with happiness. What he discovered: "Happiness is not something you seek, but rather it is a skill you develop."

With Happiness, the former cellular biologist merges the newest scientific research with traditional Buddhist teachings and contemporary Western philosophy to show you the keys to realizing the experience of happiness. Join Ricard on this audio adaptation of his book of the same title to learn more about:

Practices for working with your mind to develop attention, focus, and clarity: a foundation for inner peace
How to work with the ego and time to enter "the state of flow"


Evidence of the profound and measurable effects of inner well-being on our bodies and minds continues to grow. Join Matthieu Ricard as your guide to unfolding the state of being that transcends all other circumstances and emotions: authentic happiness.

Excellent book

I'm not Buddhist so I don't approach this from the perspective of some, but the book is very well done. The author gives great points to think about. I don't purchase many audiobooks but this one was well worth it.
