Joy of Life: Beyond Affirmation Addiction

Joy of Life: Beyond Affirmation Addiction

Today, more than ever, we live in a world of evaluations and judgments by others. Their approval, likes, and thumbs-up make us feel happy. If we unconsciously become addicted to such affirmations by others, the fear of a thumbs-down guarantees a life of misery. This short book presents a spiritual prescription for discovering the joy of life that’s immune to how others react to us. Illustrated with stories, cartoons, and quotes from various cultural traditions, this warm, engaging, and down-to-earth book will help you discover your Soul—your eternally joyful true self that will surprise you! Maciej Radosz, PhD, is a professor emeritus of chemical and biomedical engineering who applies molecular science to nanomedicine. Here he writes about his other passion, discovering the joy of life through spiritual intelligence.
