How to Feel Loved

In this groundbreaking work, a renowned happiness expert and a top relationship researcher delve into the science of happiness, love, and human connection to provide a robust framework for readers to understand and cultivate what truly makes them feel loved. While we may be loved, we might still not feel it. Many believe that by acting, speaking, or appearing a certain way, they'll feel more loved. Sonja Lyubomirsky and Harry Reis, authorities in their respective fields, have extensively studied well-being and love. They reveal that feeling loved isn't about personal appeal or lovability, but about showing our authentic, vulnerable selves and encouraging loved ones to do the same. This applies to romantic love and all other forms of love. In 'How to Feel Loved', they introduce five transformative mindsets to help readers feel the love they desire. These mindsets-Sharing, Listening-to-Learn, Radical Curiosity, Open-Heart, and Multiplicity-shape a dynamic process called the Relationship See-Saw, enabling readers to deeply understand and be understood by their loved ones. Simply being loved isn't enough; we must feel loved to be truly content. This book shows us how.
