The Creativity Cure: How to Build Happiness with Your Own Two Hands

For the past three decades, wife-and-husband physicians Carrie and Alton Barron have channeled creativity to improve their own lives and the lives of their patients. Their approaches were different - Carrie utilized writing and meditation, and Alton emphasized exercise and physical exploration - but their conclusions were the same. Creative action leads to long-term happiness and well-being. With the Barrons' detailed tools and strategies for cultivating creative outlets, overcoming unconscious barriers to happiness, and linking thought to action, readers will build the mind-set and habits necessary for positive change and fulfillment. The perfect self-help book for our do-it-yourself culture, "The Creativity Cure" has a simple yet profoundly inspirational message: that you can find the authentic, contented life you crave by taking happiness into your own two hands.
