Review:
According to Hawaiian psychologist Paul Pearsall, a lack of pleasure is the unhealthiest aspect of modern life. In this follow-up to his bestselling The Pleasure Prescription, Pearsall expands on the notion that true happiness depends on five Zen-like "aloha principles": be patient and stay in the moment, live in unity with the earth and other people, and be flexible, humble, and kind. His recommendations for a more pleasurable existence link these principles to a wide range of self-help categories, from emotional intelligence to noncompetitive play, in a workbook format that includes space in which to answer questions about your enjoyment skills, write out feelings, and record thoughts. Selections from Pearsall's Pleasure Prescription are reprinted for those who missed it, and readers looking for a hands-on way to apply that book's ideas will find that the many suggestions in Write Your Own Pleasure Prescription are a pleasure.
From the Back Cover:
Combining wisdom from Polynesian culture with proven scientific research, Dr. Pearsall describes the five keys to a happy and fulfilling life: patience, connection, pleasantness, modesty, and tenderness. These simple principles form the basis of every prescription in this book. In Write Your Own Pleasure Prescription, Dr. Pearsall shows you how to bring these principles into daily practice with pleasurable ways to enjoy yourself and connect deeply with others. From learning how to "go with how it goes" at work (pleasure prescription #18) to "just say maybe" (pleasure prescription #26) these fun, profound and caring suggestions give us the ability to shift our lives so that we feel the joy that can be part of each day. After offering dozens of ideas, Dr. Pearsall then describes how everyone can write their own pleasure prescriptions, perfectly suited to their lives.
