Drawn from His Holiness the Dalai Lama's bestselling The Art Of Happiness, with Dr Howard C. Cutler, this little book contains simple advice on how to achieve lasting happiness in our everyday lives. Going straight to the heart of the matter, each page offers a gem of spiritual wisdom to enable us to defeat depression, anxiety, anger, jealousy - and the many and varied emotions that form a barrier to our happiness. Melding the knowledge of 2500 years of Buddhist meditations with modern Western psychology, The Essence Of Happiness offers great spiritual balance and joy, and a source of profound wisdom that can be called upon anywhere, anytime.
