How to Be Sad: The Key to a Happier Life

Embracing sadness to unlock true happiness.

If happiness feels elusive to you, Helen Russell’s "How to Be Sad" might offer a refreshing perspective. It’s not just another self-help book; it’s a heartfelt exploration that acknowledges the role of sadness in our pursuit of happiness. Combining her own experiences with research and advice, Russell suggests a counterintuitive approach to feeling better by understanding and accepting our less joyful emotions. This read could be the companion you didn’t know you needed in navigating life’s ups and downs.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
