With a new afterword and discussion questions, as well as a new introduction by Brigid Shulte, a paradigm-smashing look at the core happiness problem of our era-the feeling that we are too busy, exhausted, or stressed-out to truly enjoy all life has to offer-as well as a surprising and scientifically-proven equation for turning stress into productive energy.

Through an extraordinary blend of cutting-edge scientific research and its practical application, and complete with The Easiest Thing sidebars that give readers simple start-here strategies, The Sweet Spot offers readers a clear and achievable alternative to our modern busyness treadmill. Full of surprises about the ways we may have been going at this all wrong, it’s a book about moving from trying to do things right to doing the right things.
