"In this work, the author defines vitality as the positive feeling of aliveness and energy that lies at the core of wellbeing, and offers strategies for cultivating this feeling. Vitality is associated with positive health outcomes like productivity, better coping with stress and challenges, greater mental health and the ability to manage negative emotions. Boardman believes that meaningful connections and other-oriented actions are what strengthen us. Everyday Vitality explains how to identify such experiences in readers' own lives, develop them, and use them as a foundation to counter stress"-- Provided by publisher.
