2015-01-16 00:05:23| Powells Books Events Calendar
We're bombarded by messages telling us that bigger and better things are the keys to happiness — but after we pile up the stuff and pile on the work hours, we end up exhausted and broke on a planet full of trash. Sarah van Gelder and her colleagues at YES! Magazine have been exploring the meaning of real happiness for 18 years. Sustainable Happiness: Live Simply, Live Well, Make a Difference (Berrett-Koehler) shows us that real well-being is found in supportive relationships and thriving communities, opportunities to make a contribution, and the renewal we receive from a thriving natural world. Van Gelder, YES! cofounder and editor-in-chief, will join us to offer creative and practical ways to cultivate a happiness that is nurturing, enduring, and life affirming.
