From the Publisher

The Happiness System for Women, the Truth about Creating a Happy and Fulfilling Life is a guidebook through the maze and haze of what happiness is really about and how you can get it. Women struggle to be happy because they are never officially taught how to be happy and society confuses them further with it’s myths that outer beauty, money and powerful careers will make them happy.

Happiness is created from within and the book shows the reader how to do this in seven progressive stages. This systematic approach towards creating happiness allows the reader to attempt and master each process before they move on to the next. The system is a fusion of many effective philosophies, knowledge, exercises and wisdoms, both old and new. Each step is enhanced by its predecessor and in turn is a foundation for the next.

The Happiness System for Women is the only step by step workbook for women who want true happiness. The book shows them how to stop searching and start creating life-long happiness and fulfillment through it’s skillfully combined ancient wisdoms, modern philosophies and highly-effective life coaching techniques. Along with a multitude of exercises and real-life stories, their life improvement journey becomes a fun and inspiring one.

Happiness books before now have been either highly spiritual or scientific. The Happiness System for Women differs in that it tells you how to create happiness from scratch. It takes the reader through a process while illuminating women-specific issues and sticking points so the reader can enjoy quick and long-lasting improvements.

From the Author

As The Happiness Coach and co-founder of The Women’s Life Improvement Club, the encounters I have had with the thousands of women at my seminars over the last ten years has proved that they are far from okay when it comes to their personal and professional lives. When it comes to the truth about happiness, this book is a re-assessment of what women know to be true in life. It goes into depth about the happiness myths they still believe in and discusses the programming or ‘scripting’ of society and the common perceptions women have of life that only serve to fail them.

In my opinion, two things hold women back from being happy right now. The first is their lack of self-awareness or knowledge about their inner-self. The second is a lack of commitment to themselves. Both can be built upon throughout this system. The reader can absorb all it has to offer from myself, philosophers, self-help writers, psychologists, self-improvement gurus, coaches, motivators and great thinkers both past and present. It provides women with all the tools they will ever need to have a happy and fulfilling life.

The Happiness System for Women is not just another self-improvement book. My aim was to create a system that works that has been developed from an anthology of some of the best minds that have ever lived. It teaches the reader the power of self-awareness and self-love so they can understand how happiness is genuinely created in today’s society.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rx for Lifelong Happiness, August 15, 2006

The Happiness System for Women by Alexandra Watson (a.k.a. The Happiness Coach) is a book devoted to the subject of happiness--what it is, what it is not, and how women can create a fuller and happier life. Where this book advocates reliance upon self, that is to say,taking responsibility for one's own happiness, it is prescriptive in format. The author offers you the formula, then coaches you though the process.

Alexandra tells us, "You need a healthy relationship with yourself before you can create happiness." At each stage, she poses thought-provoking questions and exercises that guide you through the process of self-discovery. And, although the slant of this book is for women, the principles discussed, can easily be adopted by men.

If you're the type of reader who likes to cherry pick chapters instead of reading sequentially, don't bother with this book because its benefits lie in the process of completing each stage.

I would recommend this book for anyone who has an interest in creating a happier more fulfilling life. The Happiness System for Women isn't a quick fix--it's a fix-for-life!

So many of us search for happiness our entire lives but still it eludes us. We search outside of ourselves never looking where it truly matters. Alexandra's book changes all that. She takes you on an introspective step by step journey that truly leads to finding lasting happiness. This book is a true gem for women everywhere!

This review is from: The Happiness System for Women (Paperback)

I can tell you from 25 years of clinical practice as a psychologist that you identified the biggest roadblocks I have heard women run into, and you give clear and practical methods for getting around, over and through them. This book will change lives for the betterm and FAST! One secret (don't tell anyone) is that so many of the exact same issues are faced by men... so men might do well sneaking a copy of this while their wives are out of the house and reading it also!
