With his trademark warmth and humour, His Holiness the Dalai Lama shows us how to find happiness despite the challenges of the modern world.

How can we live a life of kindness and compassion? How can we find happiness and meaning, even in the face of terrible suffering and events outside of our control? Through stories, meditations, and in-depth conversations, the Dalai Lama teaches us to identify ways of thinking that lead to personal unhappiness and provides practical advice on how to tackle adversity and cultivate resilience. He shows us how Tibetan Buddhist spiritual values can be applied to alleviate stress and met the demands of our busy lives.

With the Dalai Lama’s inspirational wisdom and respected scholar Howard C. Cutler’s penetrating mind, the result is a thoughtful approach to dealing with human problems that is both optimistic and realistic, even in the most challenging times.
