The book was filled with many valuable insights that I look forward to bringing forward in my day-to-day life. The most valuable insight for me was how the overarching concepts were discussed in the book. By being able to connect to the concepts of Happier Being and Inner Giggle, for example, I was able to take a step further into my personal growth than I have with other books of this same genre. I was able to better understand what I want to strive for in life and what things are creating mental and physical roadblocks that I need to work on because of the way these different concepts were described. This was a new take on some things I’ve heard before but was never able to fully dive into.
With the relatable discussions in this book, I was able to more fully dive in and start looking at ways to effectively improve my life. I look forward to implementing a more regular journaling routine to continue to put what I’ve read in this book into practice and grow from new experiences where I’ve implemented what I’ve learned from reading this book.

This book is really for anyone that wants to find a joyful synergy in their body. To recognize that all the parts make a whole and can be worked on “in parts” so it’s easier to begin the journey. Working on the parts will equal a body brought together physically, mentally and spiritually to a healthier more appreciative spirit for life, regardless of the obstacles that seem insurmountable.
There’s a lot of wonderful information and research in the book, and when you feel like you can’t absorb this many facts or details, the author provides a wonderful synopsis at the chapters end. It’s spectacular!! I can be confident I can go back and hit those points and put them into action quickly without rereading a chapter, as I focus on its points and put its steps into action in my daily living!

One of my favorite quotes from the book: ""Ask any parent what they hope for most for their child, and they tell you it’s a happy life. But how often do we tell our kids that this is the most important expectation we have of them? And how about us, how often do we model this priority in our own behavior?"" I love this point! We say that being happy is what we strive for, but what do we mean by that, and how do we go about achieving it is entirely unclear.
This book is a great guide to answering these questions. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys learning about human behaviour, what impacts it, and how to change it. It is also a great resource for anyone looking to make changes in their lives, and wants some science based advice on getting there. A great book from Dr. Tal!

I particularly appreciated how she gave abundant mention to the power of human connections. In times when we are so disconnected due to many life circumstances, the internet age or the Covid pandemic, still making significant efforts to keep our social connections strong rung very true to me. A valuable book - for sure!
