Ever thought that while life is okay - it could be a lot better Sick of feeling irritated, grumpy, stressed, or losing your nut over stuff that doesn't really matter
Matt Heath knows those feelings all too well and, a few years ago, he decided to find a way to live a life less punishing. He did a deep dive into why we feel the way we do and how to change it, interviewing experts in science, philosophy and psychology on the reasons behind our unwelcome emotions: annoyance, worry, stress, loneliness and many more.
Turns out, once you have the tools you need to unpack your emotions and deal with them in a positive way, life gets better - for you, your mates and your family.
Witty, wise and eminently readable, this is the book you need if you want to live a happier, better life.
Matt Heath is a broadcaster, musician and actor. He co-hosts The Matt and Jerry Show with Jeremy Wells on Radio Hauraki, as well as having a column in The New Zealand Herald and has a degree in anthropology.
