In such depressing economic times, the phrase “money can’t buy happiness” is at once wishful and trite. But it’s worth a shot to at least try to let go of our national money obsession and instead focus on quality of life, isn’t it? That’s why Yes! magazine has devoted their entire Winter 2009 issue to “Sustainable Happiness,” the balance between happiness for humans and the planet they inhabit.
Articles include one family’s success with a “no-buy” Christmas and a list of “10 Things Science Says Will Make You Happy” with basic-but-true ideas like “Savor Everyday Moments” and “Avoid Comparisons.”
