Such a beautiful cover and I am very thankful to be able to review this. This book really goes step by step on different ways to identify factors that may help you achieve happiness. It also provides mini-mediation and mindfulness moments. I like that there is a place where the reader can answer questions to make you think. It is a nice book to review before going to be or when waking up in my opinion. I am so glad I had this opportunity. Thank you

Author has actual life experience of feeling grief first hand when she loses her husband to disease.
But she decides to stay happy from next day of her trauma.
Author has written simple conversation with reader to help him develop a happy outlook to life.
Her meditations and practice described in the book are very good.
You could actually use those exercises from day one as they are described in very simple prose.
There are no mystic or magical claims, just power of mindfulness and practice to control brain are described.
Book is short and a happy read. At points you tend to think that author is overconfident in her methods and there efficacy.
A very good guide about things that you can actually do in you pursuit of happiness

I fell in love with the cover and I requested this book. It's well written and well researched, full of interesting ideas and things to do to learn to be happy.
I liked it and I recommend it.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

I paired Tara Ward’s A Guide to Happiness with her other book, Build Your Confidence and I loved them both. A Guide to Happiness was the perfect book to remind oneself to just be happy. This lovely little book of tips provides helpful insights and affirmations that everyone deserves to hear. Sometimes we can get stuck in a bad mood, but this is a great book to read if you ever need a pick-me-up. With helpful reminders to be positive, this is a great read for everyone! The cover art is so cute and would be lovely on a shelf or coffee-table (especially paired with her other lovely titles!)

I chose to request this book because, during the current state of the world, I think we can all use some happiness tools.
Tara Ward delves a little into the science of happiness...but the real joy of this read for me was "Installing Happiness Into Your Genes." I connected with this part because Ward invites the reader to create a plan of action towards happiness. Meditation is a little more appealing after this read.
If you're feeling stuck in a rut, especially during quarantine, this is a great quick read and pick-me-up.
Thank you Netgalley!
