This book is full of wisdom and practical strategies for thinking positively as a way to live happier, healthier lives.  One of the first steps in the process is first identifying what you want in life, and recognizing negative thought patterns.  It is also important to understand how our thoughts and words affect others, as well as ourselves.  There are many techniques to replace negative thoughts, including the Stop & Swap method that I found helpful.There were specific reframing phrases used as examples, which was a helpful exercise.  The gratitude exercise is a great intervention, with numerous thought-provoking questions linked to our goals.  I really enjoyed the inspirational quotes throughout the book.  It is a motivating and practical guide to living a more positive, well-balanced life.
