A practical guide to humanism featuring seven simple steps to lead a happier life.
In all the chaos of modern life it can be hard to find time to focus on happiness. Balancing work, relationships and families can feel like an impossible task and without the right tools, feelings of stress and overwhelm can begin to surface. But the humanist way of life offers a transformative way forward.
In How to Be a Happy Human, Andrew Copson shares insights he's learnt from leading a humanist life, offering practical guidance to help you feel happier and live better. Using seven simple rules for living well, you'll learn how to find happiness in everyday life from the wisdom of ancient and modern humanist thinkers.
Whether you're in need of comfort, inspiration or to find some calm amongst the chaos, How to be a Happy Human can guide you to find your joy so you can find your purpose and create order in your daily life.
