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

A Five-Part Plan to Build Happiness and Alleviate Stress

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.
