The Joy Switch

How Your Brain's Secret Circuit Affects Your Relationships - And How You Can Activate It

By: Chris M. Coursey

Narrated by: Brian Conover

Life is hard when you’re not yourself.

Why do we sometimes feel more connected in our relationships than at other times? Perhaps you sometimes find it easy and exciting to spend time with your loved ones - but sometimes, especially when things don’t according to plan, you feel incapable of connecting in conversations. You then feel distant from those you love most. What if the answer to remaining connected in relationships has been right under your nose - or, rather, right inside your head all along?

Discover the simple switch in your brain that activates - or deactivates - what you most need for relational connectivity: joy. In The Joy Switch, learn how the simple flip of this brain switch either enables you to remain present for those around you or causes you to become overwhelmed - and ultimately inhibited from being your best self - when problems arise. You’ll learn how to maximize your relational brain, how to recognize when your brain’s joy switch is flipped, and how to take steps to restore your relational sweet-spot. This book will help you love others and remain fully connected with yourself while being the best version of who you were made to be.

Excellent quick listen

A quick listen on brain activity and how joy affects it. Would highly recommend if you need a beginner guide to understanding how practicing joy can make relationships with others better.

Great for anyone AND practical steps to apply

Not only is this a great book with information that can help anyone, but it is backed by science (which is explained and very interesting) and will benefit the reader and everyone in that person's life. The steps are clearly laid out for easy application.

Practical and inspiring to experience more joy in relationship

Clear and practical examples, reflective exercises, and pathways give understanding and hope for change to experience more joy

Much needed perspective

The Joy Switch is about how to move forward in life. It provides perspective on how and why joy is important for living a fulfilling life. AND it provides some practical ways to increase the level of joy in our lives. I highly recommend this book.

To Live in Joy is to ENJOY Life

The compassion, love, and, yes, joy, that the author put into this book is reflected in its clarity and deceptively simple structure. Before you know it, you are gently guided along into a life that feels better and in which you can do better. For yourself and those around you. Highly recommended!
