September 24, 2011
Mangalore, September 24: City based Reliance TimeOut, presented one of its kind workshop, A Happiness Evening. The workshop was conducted by Dr Rekha Shetty, author of the best seller, 'The Happiness Quotient'.

The author demonstrated few happiness mantras from her book, which fueled the thirst of the audience to know more about the book. The workshop was followed by an interactive session and the audience present at the work went with a high happiness quotient.

Also present at the event and in conversation with Dr Rekha Shetty was N Vinay Hegde, Vice Chancellor, Nitte University. “Whatever the external circumstances may be, the individual is responsible for his inner state. Events are not under our control, but our perception and reactions to them are. The emotional wellbeing is an inside job” said Mr Hegde.

About the Book

The Indian tradition shows us that positive, radiant happiness is our birthright, and the programme outlined in this book illustrates how to achieve it for ourselves. The happiness quotient (HQ) is a concept that measures approximately, the measure of happiness each person has achieved in his life. This book provides a blueprint to increase one's HQ. It starts by describing the creation of a positive mindspace, one that nurtures the positive emotions that increase happiness.

Anti-happiness traps, too, find a special place in this book. They require special identification as they can be very misleading, like a comfortable golden cage full of fruit, must seem to a free-flying parrot. The book speaks about all these factors, and presents the idea of happiness in a whole new perspective.
