Concrete Strategies, Not Empty Aphorisms, Fill the Pages of the Groundbreaking Book, The Happiness Formula
After 30 years of research, Dr. Alphonsus Obayuwana has discovered a simple equation that makes it possible, for the first time, to assign a valid numerical happiness score to any human adult — regardless of age, income, language, culture, or nation of origin.
Alphonsus Obayuwana, MD, Ph.D., CPC, is a physician-scientist, a happiness coach, and the founder and CEO of Triple-H Project LLC, an entity that trains and certifies happiness coaches.
Until now, happiness, though fundamental to human existence, had been considered too vague and elusive to quantify.
PERRYSBURG, OH, UNITED STATES, November 5, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The pursuit of happiness is universal, but objectively measuring happiness has remained elusive — until now. Dr. Alphonsus Obayuwana, MD, Ph.D., CPC, has developed a simple equation that can assign a numerical happiness score to any individual, regardless of demographics, using a universal unit of measure called the Personal Happiness Index (PHI).
“We all want to be happier,” Dr. Obayuwana said. “There is no one person you are going to meet who is not seeking happiness.”
For Dr. Obayuwana, the quest to identify the causative factors and objectively quantify degrees of happiness took 30 years of research, the results of which are revealed in his new book, The Happiness Formula: A Scientific, Groundbreaking Approach to Happiness and Personal Fulfillment.
“Unlike other books about happiness, which are too often filled with dos and don’ts, wishful thinking, and empty aphorisms, The Happiness Formula breaks new ground,” said Dr. Obayuwana. “Despite its title, The Happiness Formula is much more than a mathematical equation for measuring happiness. It is a book about life, the relationship between human hope and happiness, one’s overall feeling of personal satisfaction and subjective well-being.”
In addition to individuals seeking happiness, Dr. Obayuwana wrote the book for those who serve in helping professions, such as life coaches, chief happiness officers, directors of human services, and other types of administrators, policymakers, and researchers who are involved in the “business” of human happiness.
The book is also geared toward happiness coaches, as it offers a strong theoretical basis and firm practical structure for happiness coaching, which currently has no existing guidelines.
The idea of the Personal Happiness Index began in 1982 when Dr. Obayuwana was developing the Hope Index Scale (HIS) to measure human hope and prevent suicide. That scale became adopted by The Coca-Cola Company, General Motors, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, and academic institutions across the globe.
In addition to the book, Dr. Obayuwana is available to discuss related topics such as why children are happier than adults, how or why achievements make people happy, and why there’s still lingering unhappiness from the pandemic.
