The Power of Fun - How to Feel Alive Again

If you’re not having fun, you’re not fully living. The author of “This delightful book might just be what we need to start flourishing.”--#1 Journalist and screen/life balance expert Catherine Price argues persuasively that our always-on, tech-addicted lifestyles have led us to obsess over intangible concepts such as happiness while obscuring the fact that real happiness lies in the everyday experience of fun.
