TOPICS

What Happy People Know

Those who experience life in a positive emotional state – with happiness, optimism, joy and appreciation – tend to be more resilient, live longer, experience greater vitality, have better relationships, have fewer problems with alcohol and drugs, be more productive, and in general live a far more fulfilling life. Anyone can learn practices to increase their “happiness quotient.” Dr. Baker maintains that happiness is an internal phenomenon.

What Happy Companies Know

How do companies become happy and healthy and remain that way? Conversely, what is it that drives a good company to go bad? These questions are examined from several sciences including bio-evolutionary theory, neurology, emotional intelligence and positive psychology – and taken from the pages of Dr. Baker’s new book.



Executive Health & the Good Life

No one ever said that it’s easy working as an executive in corporate America. Fortunately, there is a science of successful living that offers a practical road map for making the right decisions and then taking congruent action. Dr. Baker shares this science, based on a three-part multidimensional model, that equally emphasizes sense of purpose, health and relationships.

Challenge of Change

Dr. Baker shares strategies for implementing and maintaining healthy change to help you achieve goals and maintain success.

Positive Emotions and Health

Many people are in the dark about how emotions can influence health. Become enlightened by Dr. Baker’s important information for your overall health.
