What makes us happy? Bill Bailey plays crazy golf and hugs trees to find out.

Is there a knack to being happy? From paddle-boarding down the Thames in a Santa hat, to wild swimming in a glacial river and cooking sausages on a campfire, Bill revels in the exhilaration of the outdoors, as well as the quieter pleasures of letter-writing, or of simple reflection.

In this beautiful and uplifting audiobook, Bill Bailey explores all this and more while delving into the nature of happiness, all in his own, remarkable, way.

Packed with wisdom and humour, Bill Bailey aims for the heart of pure joy and contentment—and how we can all achieve it.

OK, I am a Bill Bailey fan anyway but listening to him read this book has been an absolute joy!
Bill if you read this, can I please join you for a walk or a paddle boarding expedition some time? I think we could be good friends. :)

This book should be free on the NHS.

I love Bill he’s a great bloke and top comedian with some unique musical skills that give his shows such a unique edge. I enjoyed this audible book though shorter than most. Overall it was a good idea and well researched, written and narrated by Bill. However, some points left me thinking ok Bill sounds nice but I’m not sure people will adapt your thoughts in the real world. Probably do what most of us do…nod along as we listen as you can’t argue with his ideas or help but agree with him, but then carry on regardless. It’s always tough to provide insight to people as in my experience everyone often has tough lives to manage in many forms so unless ‘happiness’ advice truly resonates with us ordinary folk and seems achievable it’s likely to fall on deaf ears soon enough. Still it’s just Bill’s take on things and certainly worth a listen to as it’s funny heart warming and interesting with facts and historical elements. Good work Mr B

Odd title as there was nothing particularly remarkable here. I did enjoy it and it kept me company when I spent a day spring cleaning

Not a self help book but Bill’s thoughts on happiness, with some mention of studies on happiness etc. Nothing particular new here, maybe there IS nothing new to say about how to be happy: aim to love and be loved, be altruistic, get out into nature, be physically active, travel, notice the small moments of joy. These are the main themes. A couple resonated with me. The joy he felt on nurturing one strawberry plant for example. Those small things really are where happiness lies.

I assume after many years of touring Bill has more money to spend on travel etc than the average reader, so some of the descriptions of his many travels left me thinking that I could understand why these may have made him happy but few could emulate this. That aside, I enjoyed the few witty/funny moments and it felt a bit like spending an evening with a friend reminiscing about things and discussing life, the universe and everything

When I first started listening I felt that maybe it wasn’t a great idea for him to narrate the book himself as it sounded like anyone (professional narrators aside) trying to read a book aloud. However after a while either he got into his stride or my ears adjusted but by the end I felt it could only have been narrated by Bill himself.

I have enjoyed Bill’s work for many years - a very talented musician and funny man
