The Cultural DNA of Happiness [Russian Edition]: Global Secrets of Well-being That Will Transform Your Life by Philip Reitler

We've been conditioned to believe that success, wealth, and a perfect social media presence are the keys to true happiness. But the author of this book, an anthropology professor, discovered something entirely different. Five years of field research across six continents shattered his assumptions about genuine well-being. In his book, he invites you on a captivating journey through eight remarkable "technologies of joy" that have been refined by different cultures for centuries.

You'll discover what makes Danes consistently rank as the world's happiest people, despite harsh winters and crushing tax rates. Why Japanese people live longer than anyone else — and it's not just about their diet. How Costa Ricans manage to see abundance where others notice only shortcomings. What enables Indian craftsmen to create masterpieces from what Europeans throw in the trash. And so much more!

Beyond that, you'll learn to:

• Create comfort in any space — from a rental apartment to your office;

• Find meaning in mundane tasks and transform ordinary work into a source of fulfillment;

• Practice gratitude and see wealth in what you already have;

• Build supportive relationships and foster genuine intimacy with people;

• Strike a balance between work and rest, avoid burnout, and maintain productivity;

• Pour your soul into any endeavor and create maximum joy from minimum resources.

This audiobook isn't just theory — it's a ready-made toolkit for crafting your own "cultural DNA of happiness." It contains practical instruments and a step-by-step plan that will help you adapt these time-tested practices to your own life. Stop waiting for happiness to find you. It's time to learn how to create it with your own hands!
