The Little Book of Colour

How to Use the Psychology of Colour to Transform Your Life

Meik Wiking

The third book from the CEO of The Happiness Research Institute and internationally bestselling author of The Little Book of Hygge, Meik Wiking. 
 
Every year, we are given a fixed number of days. Some days pass us by without leaving a trace and some days we remember for ever. 
 
Do you remember your first kiss? Or the best meal you ever tasted? Or the smell of freshly cut grass on a perfect summer's day? 
 
When our senses are stimulated, when we harness the power of first experiences, and when we are conscious of our feelings and emotions, we are more likely to hold on to our happy memories. 
 
Using research on happiness, Meik Wiking explores how we can learn to create happy memories and be better at holding on to them. Including data and diaries, interviews, global surveys and studies, and real-life behavioural science and happiness experiments, The Art of Making Memories will explore how we can create perfect moments. Moments you will remember for ever. Moments that will shape who we are.

The Art of Making Memories

How to Create and Remember Happy Moments

Each year we are given 365 days. Some of those pass us by without leaving a trace, and some seem to stick in our minds for ever. Do you remember your first kiss? Swimming in the sea on holiday? The first time you drove a car? 
 
Research has shown that when our senses are stimulated and that when we are conscious of our emotions, we are more likely to recall those precious moments - which is why those memories flood back to us so easily. 
 
But those happy memories don't have to be reserved for big life events. Drawing on global surveys, behavioural science experiments and data gathered by The Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen, Meik is here to show how we can we can turn ordinary experiences into something extraordinary. 
 
Whether it's eating dinner at the table rather than in front of the TV, exploring a new part of your neighbourhood, or planning how you're going to celebrate your small wins, this book will help you find the magic in the every day, and create memories you will cherish forever.
