  The American way of life is imbued with an evident culture of consumerism and overconsumption. The American Dream has been linked to worldly attitudes and the belief that riches equals happiness. Growing trends in minimalism and the pursuit of happiness, on the other hand, are gaining traction and bringing to light issues such as overconsumption, the physical and mental impacts of clutter, and what actually brings joy.Increasing distractions in everyday life detract from our ability to pay attention and divert our attention from the events that genuinely count. Mindfulness has been shown in the past to be a helpful approach for reducing the deluge of worthless or damaging information. Individuals seeking increased well-being may also benefit from decluttering, according to anecdotal evidence.Is it possible that decluttering, like mindfulness, might increase overall happiness, tranquillity, and mental clarity? Is it true that decluttering boosts confidence, productivity, and relationship happiness? Is it true that decluttering lessens the value of material belongings and feelings of being overwhelmed by "stuff"? In this book, you will find all the answers you are looking for

  Why We Love - The New Science...

  Dr. Anna Machin

  An Oxford evolutionary anthropologist explores the ever-elusive science of love.What can the social and life sciences tell us about the most fundamental and unquantifiable human experience—love? Anna Manchin is interested in the the the most inclusive possible answer, one that, unlike previous books on the subject, considers friendship and family on par with romantic love, as well as polyamory, chosen families, queer love, and touchingly, the love we feel for pets, celebrities, and deities. Anna delves into these intimate relationships from the levels of biology, chemistry, and neuroscience all the way up to psychology, sociology, and evolution, in engaging, accessible, and ever-charming prose.But Anna doesn’t shy away from love’s darker consequences – its addictive nature which can lead us towards, or leave us susceptible to, manipulation, coercion, and even violence. And yet, in the end, her book is an argument for love. Growing evidence shows that the nature and quality of our relationships is the most significant factor in our life satisfaction, happiness, physical and mental health – more important than quitting smoking or losing weight. Love is the center of what makes us human. It is, by nature, inefficient – and in our ever-busier world, it can tend to be shunted to the side. Anna’s goal, therefore, is to expand our understanding and reinvigorate our awe at the complexities and intricacies of the human heart.Building on the great tradition of writers like Esther Perel, Alain de Botton, Erich Fromm, Stan Tatkin, Sue Johnson, and Helen Fisher, Anna’s depth of research and wells of empathy bring us many leaps forward in the eternal project of understanding ourselves.
