We all know love matters, but in this groundbreaking book positive emotions expert Barbara Fredrickson shows us how much. Even more than happiness and optimism, love holds the key to improving our mental and physical health as well as lengthening our lives. Using research from her own lab, Fredrickson redefines love not as a stable behemoth, but as micro-moments of connection between people - even strangers.

In this remarkable 15-lecture audio course, Dr. Barbara Fredrickson - celebrated professor, best-selling author, TED Talk Celebrity, and leading positive psychology expert - shows you how to enhance your awareness of fleeting states of emotional uplift to help balance your brain’s built-in bias toward the negative. You’ll learn how even subtle positive emotions - like enjoyment, gratitude, serenity, and awe - can expand your awareness and ignite upward spirals of growth within you.
