THE HAPPINESS TRAINING  PLAN

Practical Strategies for a Happier Life from the New Science of Positive Psychology

                                                                          Self-help audio CD

The Happiness Training Plan is an audio programme with simple, practical steps to greater happiness. The twelve strategies are unique in being based on recent findings from positive psychology, the  science of happiness. Each track offers a practical lesson in mood improvement with the assurance that every strategy is supported by scientific evidence.

Miriam Akhtar and Dr Chris Johnstone  are pioneers of positive psychology in the UK.  As well as the science, the twelve strategies also draw on their own personal experience of recovering from depression.

The CD was launched at the 2008 University of Bristol Happiness Lectures and is available through www.happinesstrainingplan.com.

"Clearly presented, easy to follow and, more importantly, highly practical.  I love the Happiness Training Plan CD and recommend it to both colleagues and patients"   Dr Mark Daykin, GP.

"Training to be happy? Can it possibly be done? Can listening to a CD actually make us feel more alive, solve our problems and lead to an inner state of joy?  It sounds impossible but what wouldn't we give to be able to do this!  The Happiness Training Plan suggests that far from being a random process, we actually have some control over our happiness, health and consciousness. Listening, relaxing and practising is what it takes to bring about profound and far-reaching changes, which help us to tune in to the inner voice of love and the source of our divinity.  I have seen people change in this way and know that it can happen."
