Have you ever looked around and wondered, “Why has everyone found love except me?” You’re not the only one. Great relationships don’t just appear in our lives - they’re the culmination of a series of decisions, including whom to date, how to end it with the wrong person, and when to commit to the right one. But our brains often get in the way. We make poor decisions, which thwart us on our quest to find lasting love.

But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

It’s possible to value your single time so much that you refuse to give it up for anything less than the amazing relationships you deserve. It’s also possible to stop searching for them so relentlessly that you ignore every other aspect of your life.

Real heartbreak is unmistakable. We think of nothing else. We feel nothing else. We care about nothing else. Yet while we wouldn't expect someone to return to daily activities immediately after suffering a broken limb, heartbroken people are expected to function normally in their lives, despite the emotional pain they feel. Now psychologist Guy Winch imagines how different things would be if we paid more attention to this unique emotion - if only we can understand how heartbreak works, we can begin to fix it.

Superheroes don't start from glorious beginnings. Their origins are almost always marked by traumatic events that leave them helpless and scared. Batman witnessed his parents' murder. Superman was sent away from his dying planet with no one to guide him as he grew up. Orphaned Catwoman was forced to steal food to survive on the streets of Gotham. What makes these superheroes super is their determination to not be defined by helplessness. They embrace their origins, their flaws, and their mistakes and strive every day to become the best versions of themselves.

Her groundbreaking research shows that an increasing number of women - more than half of those in her extensive study - are doing it too much and too often, hindering their ability to lead a satisfying life.

It’s commitment. Busting the myths most of us believe about commitment, Reeder shows that it all comes down to four variables.

It is a biological drive as integral to our health as sleep or nutrition. We are designed by nature to flourish through play.

The Stoic Challenge, then, is the ultimate guide to improving your quality of life through tactics developed by ancient Stoics, from Marcus Aurelius and Seneca to Epictetus.

Enchantment. By Dr. Sharon Blackie’s definition, a vivid sense of belongingness to a rich and many-layered world, a profound and whole-hearted participation in the adventure of life. Enchantment is a natural, spontaneous human tendency - one we possess as children, but lose, through social and cultural pressures, as we grow older. It is an attitude of mind which can be cultivated: the enchanted life is possible for anyone. It is intuitive, embraces wonder, and fully engages the mythic imagination - but it is also deeply embodied in ecology, grounded in place and community.

Jay Garfield, a leading expert on Buddhist philosophy, offers a brief and radically clear account of an idea that at first might seem frightening but that promises to liberate us and improve our lives, our relationships, and the world. Drawing on Indian and East Asian Buddhism, Daoism, Western philosophy, and cognitive neuroscience, Garfield shows why it is perfectly natural to think you have a self—and why it actually makes no sense at all and is even dangerous. Most importantly, he explains why shedding the illusion that you have a self can make you a better person.

So helpful and not just the single people
I really enjoyed this book because it's so practical and reasonates with what dating is like now. I find the advice helpful and doable. I think it takes someone who has been in this relationship marathon/treadmill to understand how it feels. Even at 50, I can empathize with all the patient stories. I have recommended this for all my friends with anxiety too.

I’ve been going to therapy and practicing many of the techniques outlined in this book for years- however, there was something about the way it was put together here; some of the examples and stories that gave me more hope that I can be ok and that, perhaps, there is more I can try or be doing to lead a more fulfilling life with or without a partner.

Valuable Insights for Singles
As a single woman who has personally experienced some of the challenges the author discusses in this book, I found 'How to Be Single and Happy' to be quite valuable. Despite the author being married, her insights and advice remained highly convincing and applicable to singles like me who are navigating the complexities of singlehood. The book impressively draws from extensive research and the author's firsthand experience as a practicing psychologist. While it's not without limitations, for those seeking guidance on embracing singlehood with a positive outlook, this audiobook provides a wealth of solid insights.

Useful for newbies
Great summary of basic cognitive skills to those who are new to mindfulness, gratefulness practice, and other pretty basic self help skills for positive thinking. I’ve spent years cultivating these things so it was not anything very particular to singleness. I wish I had had this basic summary all in one place when I first started.

Brilliant insight
I really loved how personal & broad this book is.
Very helpful
The narrator is a little sing-songy, but still engaging.
