4.0 out of 5 stars Be happy, July 29, 2007
By 
Raymond Mathiesen (Armidale, N.S.W., Australia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Practice of Happiness (Hardcover)
This little book contains 10 meditative, philosophic essays on happiness. Each essay talks about a different "practice," or mind set, that can aid in increasing happiness. In the first essay, for example, we are urged to follow our instincts, our inner desires, rather than dutifully obeying what society and our intellect tells us we must do.

Kehoe is not a psychologist so do not expect a scientific approach. Instead he writes from the perspective of one who has lived a successful and happy life, and who has thought long and read widely about the subject.

I recommend reading a chapter a day to give your mind a chance to think over the various messages. You might even find you want to read the book several times to absorb the material. The text is certainly not boring, has pertinent quotes scattered through it, and is illustrated with interesting pictures to meditate on.
