10% Happier Revised Edition: How I Tamed the Voice in My Head, Reduced Stress Without Losing My Edge, and Found Self-Help That Actually Works--A True Story
by Dan Harris

Copied from summary on Amazon:
The #1 New York Times Bestseller
"An enormously smart, clear-eyed, brave-hearted, and quite personal look at the benefits of meditation."—Elizabeth Gilbert
Nightline anchor Dan Harris embarks on an unexpected, hilarious, and deeply skeptical odyssey through the strange worlds of spirituality and self-help, and discovers a way to get happier that is truly achievable. Now revised with new material.
After having a nationally televised panic attack, Dan Harris knew he had to make some changes. A lifelong nonbeliever, he found himself on a bizarre adventure involving a disgraced pastor, a mysterious self-help guru, and a gaggle of brain scientists. Eventually, Harris realized that the source of his problems was the very thing he always thought was his greatest asset: the incessant, insatiable voice in his head, which had propelled him through the ranks of a hypercompetitive business, but had also led him to make the profoundly stupid decisions that provoked his on-air freak-out.
Finally, Harris stumbled upon an effective way to rein in that voice, something he always assumed to be either impossible or useless: meditation, a tool that research suggests can do everything from lower your blood pressure to essentially rewire your brain. 10% Happier takes readers on a ride from the outer reaches of neuroscience to the inner sanctum of network news to the bizarre fringes of America's spiritual scene, and leaves them with a takeaway that could actually change their lives.
Winner of the 2014 Living Now Book Award for Inspirational Memoir

I think the practice of meditation is supposed to make you 10% happier, not just reading the book. 😋

Recommended the audio book. It's great listen, although I continued to not meditate after reading. Never could force myself to take the time until the quarantine. Now I do it at least once a day.

I don't get it. 10% happier, is it like a joke?
Why not just Happy?

So based on the comments seems like this is another "do meditation, your problems are now solved" book?

In a way yes, but he uses the 10 percent happier phrase to explain that meditation won't fix all your problems which is something some books claim.

I read the book and I highly recommend it. Its not really a self help book but more of a memoir.

All Dan Harris's stuff is like 5% "Okay here's how to meditate" and 95% of Dan Harris being a vain asshole talking about himself. You can (and should) get the useful 5% on meditation from like 10 minutes on youtube.
