" We love you, you've made us happy." - Chris Evans "Happy memories are essential to our mental health. They strengthen our identity, sense of purpose and relationships . Meik's new book will teach you how to create and remember happy moments and will change how you think about happy memories ." Dr Rangan Chatterjee, Number One bestselling author of The 4 Pillar Plan and BBC Breakfast GP The third book from the CEO of the Happiness Research Institute and internationally bestselling author of The Little Book of Hygge , Meik Wiking. Why is it that a piece of music, a smell, a taste can take us back to something we had forgotten? How is it that we remember our first kiss in detail, but barely remember anything of a fortnight's holiday from five years ago? Memories are the cornerstones of our identity, shaping who we are, how we act, and how we feel. But how do we make and keep the memories that bring us lasting joy? Happiness expert Meik Wiking has the answers. In The Art of Making Memories he brings together his extensive research drawn from the world's biggest study on happy memories (which involved 1000 people from 75 countries), conducted at the Happiness Research Institute, along with data and diaries, interviews, global surveys and studies, and real-life behavioural science and happiness experiments , to explain the nuances of nostalgia, the different ways we form memories around our experiences, and how we can become better at recalling them. Written in Meik's warm and funny trademark style , filled with infographics, illustrations, and photographs, and featuring "Happy Memory Tips", The Art of Making Memories is a life-affirming read which show you it's easier than you think to make your life unforgettable. Review: Interesting - this book has beautiful visuals and illustrations and images. It teaches one how to create memories in detail. It is a must read ! Review: Gift wrap - Product - I yet to open I ordered with gift wrap and content. And the content is half cut and it's ugly because of it

The art of making Happy Memories!!
The best way of absorbing the beautiful ideas of this superb book, is to read one chapter at a time. This way, we can understand Meik Viking, n his subtle humour!! Finally, dividing the year into months in the end, is a superb way of making plans for the future!! The coloured photos really added fun to appreciate the exact mood of the particular part of the text!! Great book!! 👍👍

Letra muy pequeña y difícil de leer pero el libro está genial
Me gusta el libro, pero la letra es enana. Tengo el libro de My hygge home y es un formato también en pasta dura pero algo más grande . Este es como una versión "encogida" de un formato mayor con lo que casi hay que llevar lupa para verlo. El libro, eso sí, es fenomenal

Da leggere se si sa l'inglese.
Bel libro, molto scorrevole e piacevole da leggere. Meik Viking è davvero un bravo autore, molto coinvolgente. Non è ancora stato tradotto in italiano.

Intéressant mais...
J’ai lu tous les livres de Meik Wiking, j’avais beaucoup aimé le livre sur le Hygge. Les études citées dans ce livre sont intéressantes, cela donne des pistes pour renforcer la mémoire de nos souvenirs heureux. Cependant, le gros défaut de ce livre est qu’il n’aborde pas du tout la question dérangeante suivante: « comment construire des souvenirs heureux quand on n’en a pas? Quand les relations avec votre famille sont toxiques? Quand vos premières fois se passent mal? ». Comment réussir à construire des souvenirs heureux dans l’adversité? L’auteur a vraisemblablement une vie riche et passionnante mais c’est loin d’être le cas de nombre de personnes. Cela me paraît donc plus facile de collecter de beaux souvenirs..

Lovely book
I love all Meik Wiking books. I'm collecting them, and read 5 of them to date.
