Uncovering Happiness

Elisha Goldstein Β· 2015
76/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Goldstein, a licensed clinical psychologist, builds a genuinely compassionate seven-step path through depression, blending mindfulness with real self-compassion instead of tough-love platitudes. It's positioned as a companion to treatment, not a replacement for it, which is the honest way to frame this kind of book. Worth it if you want practical tools for a heavy season.
