    • Najnowsza książka autorki bestsellerowego „Projektu Szczęście”! Wszystkie szczęśliwe rodziny są do siebie podobne; każda nieszczęśliwa rodzina jest nieszczęśliwa na swój własny sposób. Lew Tołstoj, „Anna Karenina” Gretchen zrozumiała znaczenie tych słów pewnego letniego dnia i postanowiła odnaleźć elementy, które łączą szczęśliwe rodziny, i wprowadzić je do własnego życia. Aby tego dokonać, rozpoczęła kolejny projekt - Projekt Szczęśliwy Dom. Dlaczego tak go nazwała? Ponieważ dom to centrum naszego życia, na dobre i na złe. Dom to miejsce, do którego wchodzi się bez pukania, w którego sercu jest nasza rodzina. Dom to miejsce, do którego należy się bezwarunkowo. Daje poczucie bezpieczeństwa i akceptację, a jednocześnie nakłada na nas odpowiedzialność i obowiązki. Dom to również miejsce powrotów, fizyczne centrum naszych dni i naszej wyobraźni. Cała kula ziemska kręci się wokół tego jednego miejsca. Dlatego właśnie Gretchen obiecała sobie, że przez dziewięć miesięcy roku szkolnego, od początku września do końca maja, zrobi wszystko, by jej dom stał się prawdziwie szczęśliwy. „Projekt Szczęśliwy Dom” zmienił życie Gretchen Rubin, pozwól, aby zmienił i Twoje!

    • When writing about habits for her last book, Gretchen Rubin stumbled on the biggest discovery of her life--the Four Tendencies. The Tendencies describe how a person responds to motivation, and how that affects family dynamics, happiness, work, and organizations. Investigating the Four Tendencies quickly became the most challenging and important project Gretchen had ever embarked upon. A pleasurable read that also serves as an authoritative reference on a breakthrough personality framework, The Four Tendencies identifies the qualities of Upholders, Questioners, Obligers, and Rebels, examining each in depth while also discussing how it interacts with the world. For readers, the book provides a self-assessment that will empower them to change their actions, overcome stubborn hurdles, and improve relationships. When applied to a family, team, or work setting, the framework unlocks tension so leaders can be effective and groups can be productive. It is already being used by teachers, managers, and coaches successfully across the country. For years, Gretchen Rubin has encouraged readers to be their best selves. The Four Tendencies, infused with Gretchen's optimistic spirit and sharp observations, will help them make their lives happier, healthier, more productive, and more creative.

      'A charming journey through the science and experience of fully engaging your senses of smell, taste, touch, sight, and sound' - Adam Grant, author of Think Again The #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project turns to the five senses. For more than a decade, Gretchen Rubin had been studying happiness and human nature. Despite all she'd learned, she began to realize that something was missing: she was spending so much time stuck in her head that she wasn't noticing the world around her. In this journey of self-experimentation, Rubin explores the mysteries and joys of embracing the senses as a path to a happier, more mindful life: from the simple pleasures of appreciating ketchup and adding favourite songs to a playlist, to practicing daily rituals and attending Flavor University, she discovers the power of tuning in. Life in Five Senses is filled with profound insights and practical suggestions about how to heighten our senses and live fuller, richer lives - and, ultimately, how to move through the world with more vitality and love. 'An inspiring and practical guide to living in the moment' - Susan Cain, author of Quiet

      “This book made me happy in the first five pages.” —AJ Jacobs, author of The Year of Living Biblically: One Man's Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible Award-winning author Gretchen Rubin is back with a bang, with The Happiness Project. The author of the bestselling 40 Ways to Look at Winston Churchill has produced a work that is “a cross between the Dalai Lama’s The Art of Happiness and Elizabeth Gilbert’s Eat, Pray, Love.” (Sonya Lyubomirsky, author of The How of Happiness: A Scientific Approach to Getting the Life You Want) In the vein of Julie and Julia, The Happiness Project describes one person’s year-long attempt to discover what leads to true contentment. Drawing at once on cutting-edge science, classical philosophy, and real-world applicability, Rubin has written an engaging, eminently relatable chronicle of transformation.

      NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this lovely, easy-to-use illustrated guide to decluttering, the beloved author of The Happiness Project shows us how to take control of our stuff—and, by extension, our lives. Gretchen Rubin knows firsthand that creating order can make our lives happier, healthier, more productive, and more creative. But for most of us, a rigid, one-size-fits-all solution doesn't work. When we tailor our approach to suit our own particular challenges and habits, we can find inner calm. With a sense of fun, and a clear idea of what’s realistic for most people, Rubin suggests dozens of manageable tips and tricks for creating a more serene, orderly environment, including: • Never label anything “miscellaneous.” • Ask yourself, “Do I need more than one?” • Don’t aim for minimalism. • Remember: If you can’t retrieve it, you won’t use it. • Stay current with a child’s interests. • Beware the urge to “procrasticlear.” By getting rid of things we don’t use, don’t need, or don’t love, we free our minds (and our shelves) for what we truly value.

    • Chcete se zbavit špatného návyku, nebo si osvojit nějaký dobrý? Autorka klade čtenářům podnětné otázky, aby jim pomohla zacházet se zvyky vědomě – rozpoznat, jak vznikly a jak se vyvíjely. Především ale předkládá překvapivá doporučení, jak každodenní rituály, které nás ovlivňují víc, než si připouštíme, změnit a dosáhnout spokojenosti.
