Almanacco della Felicità
365 idee + 1 per coltivare la gioia ogni giorno published by Sonzogno is a manual spreading a message of happiness and gosh, we need it so badly in a moment of profound discomfort and fear like this one is. Published this November 2020, it speaks the language of freedom. In this sense it is not a different manual from the ones I read pre-pandemic influenza.
Happiness is wondeful and passes through the understanding of who we are and what we want in our existence.
This book is divided per months and every month there are many suggestions: watching on TV movies, eating healthy,doing some exercise, reading Jane Austen or other kind of books, writing down what you feel, in a journal, using the dear old pen, buying a bouquet of flowers for yourself, you will pick up the flowers you want and love the most!, adopt a puppy, or take care of some dogs in any possible way, wear different clothes from the ones you tend to use in a daily base, try to find time for making new friendship, adopt the Kintsugi; it is the art of re-putting together pieces of a broken object. Don't throw away a broken object, try to fix its scars and you'll heal as well. Other suggestions? Tips for finding new friendships, adding new clothes without spending money with the swapping, cure your hands, buy food with criteria, be a tourist in your own city, learn a new language, treat well your hair!, walk, social medias,recipes for the feasts...
The perfect book for a new hope and first of all, for being happy!
Highly recommended.
I thank Marsilio for the physical copy of this book.
