En un mundo en el que nos bombardean con la receta para ser feliz, To o Fraguas desmonta con humor, iron a y la dosis justa de erudici n, los t picos contempor neos en torno a la felicidad, y demuestra que el camino para alcanzarla, si es que existe, es personal e intransferible.

Cansado de comer alimentos macrobi ticos?, de destrozarte las rodillas todas las ma anas corriendo por el asfalto?, de perseguir el liderazgo en tu empresa cuando no consigues ni hacerte escuchar en la reuni n de la comunidad?, de ligar poco a pesar de matarte en el gimnasio?, de hacer viajes eternos en los que se supone que te vas a encontrar contigo mismo y lo nico que consigues es gastarte una pasta, que te pierdan la maleta y volver con diarrea?

En definitiva, est s cansado de buscar la felicidad? No ser que a lo mejor la est s buscando en los sitios equivocados? Y si tu felicidad consistiera en comer lo que quieres, viajar donde quieres y estar tirado en el sof cuando t quieres?

Running, coaching, mindfulness, travelling, crafting, escaping... Del nutricionismo a la vida rural, de los gur s inspiracionales a los l deres de las redes sociales, del yoga a los yogures L. Casei Inmunitas, es evidente que la felicidad es un negocio. Y, adem s, est de moda. En un mundo en el que nos bombardean constantemente con la receta para ser feliz, como si fuera obligatorio serlo las veinticuatro horas del d a, To o Fraguas desmonta con humor, iron a y las justas dosis de erudici n los t picos contempor neos en torno a la felicidad, y a la vez demuestra que el camino para alcanzarla, si es que existe, es personal e intransferible.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Are you tired of eating macrobiotic food? Of destroying your knees every morning running on the pavement? Of pursuing leadership in your company when you can't even make yourself heard in a community meeting? Of rarely hitting it off with anyone no matter how much you kill yourself at the gym? Of taking never-ending trips in which you will supposedly "find yourself" but only end up spending a fortune, losing your luggage, and returning home with diarrhea? In short, are you tired of searching for happiness? Could it be that you are searching in the wrong places? What if your happiness consisted of eating what you want, traveling where you want, and sprawling out on the sofa whenever you want?

Happiness is a business, and saying that you are happy is trendy. It's also in vogue to show on social media just how happy we are. Every day on our phone and in email, we receive dozens of photos of cats, dogs, and babies with famous quotes and deep thoughts such as "If you want to be happy, think for yourself. That's an order " all written in a very hipster font. "Let's go after Monday with enthusiasm " say a legion of fools on Twitter at six in the morning. Through entertaining approaches to the various modern paths to "reaching happiness," and pausing to examine the philosophy, history, sociology, and other sciences to refute the fads and search for answers, To o Fraguas helps us put an end to the myths and answer the million-dollar question: does happiness exist?
