About this listen

'The ultimate source of happiness is within us.'


The Art of Happiness is the pioneering book of the happiness and personal development genre and remains the cornerstone of the field of positive psychology and practical self-help.

Through conversations, stories, and meditations, the Dalai Lama shows us how to defeat day-to-day anxiety, insecurity, anger, and discouragement. This book explores many facets of everyday life, including relationships, loss, and the pursuit of wealth, to illustrate how to ride through life's obstacles on a deep and abiding source of inner peace in order to overcome life's problems and achieve lasting happiness.


Based on 2,500 years of Buddhist meditations combined with a healthy dose of common sense, The Art of Happiness is a book that crosses the boundaries of traditions and brings Eastern and Western philosophy together seamlessly.
